Another month on the stock market is coming to an end. And it has actually been a somewhat quieter month again (that's allowed 😉). Of course, there were brief ups and downs again this month due to Trump and Iran, but at least there is a small plus under the line!

The portfolio in May at a glance:

👉🏻 May:

Start: 1,373,005 euros + 56.20 cash

End: 1,398,020 euros + 72.39 cash

Deposit: 3,000 euros

Profit: +22,031 Euro (+1.60%)

In terms of news and trading, this month has been rather boring. Apart from some minor profit-taking and increases, nothing has really happened that would significantly influence the composition.

I did my usual trading and bought and sold smaller positions across the portfolio. This month the focus was on $ZAL (+4,12 %) (Zalando), $TUI1 (+1,2 %) (TUI), $1810 (+10,02 %) (Xiaomi) and $PDD (+4,16 %) (PDD Holding). In addition, I took advantage of temporary price weakness to increase my position in $SCZ (+7,6 %) (Santacruz Silvermining) a little.

With regard to one of my largest positions $EQX (+2,61 %) (Equinox Gold), there was some news after all. Equinox wants to or will take over Orla Mining ($OLA ) to take over Orla Mining. This will make the new company the second largest gold producer. As of today, the share price has not yet benefited that much. But with the last merger with Calibre Mining, it took a while for the market to recognize the potential! 😉

I am curious to see how the coming month will develop and whether we will finally come to a conclusion in Iran. In any case, June will be the most profitable month in terms of dividends - the bottom line should be a good EUR 16,000. Definitely a small highlight! 😊

➡️🆓: On my way towards 4 million total assets, the target achievement rate is now 44.85%.

Here's to good stock market trading! 😊

Hello to the GQ community ✌️

My first post after being kicked about 4 weeks ago - who would have thought that solidarity towards one of the members (@Klein-Anleger ) would lead to a ban so quickly? But the goodwill of getquin was so BIG (and above all "on trial") that they graciously let me back into the holy grail of the GQ community 😉

So guys, learn from my mistakes: the goodwill here is not an Infinite Money glitch ! Save your solidarity, reduce your commitment to other members to zero and the most important thing 🚨: No surreptitious advertising for alternative financial platforms like "Cisdord" 😉😂.

Sorry, the side blow after 4 weeks of abstinence had to be 🤝

so joking aside...

⏳The first three months of 2026 have passed. Time for a brief interim summary of the current status of my reconstruction.

Before I started rebuilding the portfolio, I naturally thought about what strategy I wanted to pursue in the coming months and years - especially with regard to stock selection and weighting.

To be honest, my original plan was to keep a portfolio with a maximum of 20 shares. In the course of time, however, I realized that it will probably not stay at 20 stocks, but that the number is more likely to increase to around 30 positions (+/-).

♟️Mein Focus & my strategy:

In a nutshell: The clear focus is on growth 🚀. Dividends tend to play a subordinate role. Here I show you my shopping list and what my portfolio should look like in the future. The stocks I have already bought are marked with a green tick and without a tick, I'm still waiting ⏳

Let's start with the "desired"

🌍country weighting:

🇺🇸🇨🇦USA ~60%

🇯🇵JAPAN/ASIA ~15%

Rest ~5%

Sector weighting should be as follows:

💻TECHNOLOGY: ~30-35%

💸FINANCE: ~ 20-25%

HEALTHCARE: ~ 10-15%

🏭INDUSTRY: ~ 10-15%

REST: ~ 5-10%

So, what has happened since the beginning of the year?

Due to the global political situation - especially because of this 🍊 in the White House, whose tweets cause more tsunamis 🌊than real natural disasters - and the current drawdown in the S&P 500 (which is very convenient for me right now and gives me a lot of pleasure 🤩), I am accordingly under water💦🫧 with some of my purchases so far.

but hey, we're investing for the long term, aren't we? So easy going, all relaxed 🥱 I will most likely not make any more purchases in the next few days or weeks, park my cash position elsewhere or put it in overnight money and wait and see which zone the market settles in or wait for it to stabilize.

What do you have on your watchlist?

Are you currently waiting or how are you dealing with the current situation?

Ok, that's enough now 😂

that's it from me for now ✌️

your stock master

Opinions are divided when it comes to gold. Some don't believe in gold at all, others swear by it (but only physically in a safe) and still others - like me - invest in gold mines... 😉

I kind of fell into mining like a hero. It started in 2018 when I got a "tip" from a forum that I should take a look at K92 Mining. At the time, it was an unknown explorer who had just bought a disused mine from Barrick.

Long story short ... I probably had more luck than sense. Today, K92 Mining is on its way to becoming a Tier 1 producer and one of my largest positions. That was the beginning. Since then, I have invested speculatively in explorers from time to time. Some with an almost total loss, others with a "ver-x-fold". But the bottom line is that they are very profitable.

Over time, of course, I have also become interested in gold and now consider it an indispensable part of an investment. Whether it has to be in the form of mines remains to be seen.

For me, gold is one of the best ways to protect your money from inflation and to achieve a certain stability in your wealth accumulation. What do you think? 🤔
