Hi guys, I need your advice again.

My savings plans are currently running as follows:

200€ in the $VWRL (-2,15 %)

70€ in $KO (+0,33 %)

130€ in $AAPL (-4,81 %)

Due to good circumstances, I currently have the opportunity to add another 100€.

My current consideration would be the 100€ in $BTC (-2,38 %) , $EOAN (+0,27 %) or perhaps also $NVDA (-3,24 %) or $GOOGL (-2,29 %)

What would you do with the €100? Or maybe just increase the savings plan to the $VWRL (-2,15 %) increase it?

Thank you!

Hello everyone,

Since I and my portfolio have recently exceeded the €50,000 mark, I wanted to take this as an opportunity to present my portfolio and my strategy to you. I look forward to your opinion, assessment, criticism and potential for improvement.

About me: I am still 29 years old and work as a team leader in an industrial company in the building materials sector. In terms of education, I feel I've been through all the stages - from a qualifying secondary school certificate to A-levels and a bachelor's degree to a master's degree. The only thing missing is a doctorate 😌

About the overall strategy: My assets are divided between my share portfolio, a condominium and a call money account. I live in your apartment myself. I wouldn't consider renting or real estate as an investment because I think the risks of having to invest money again are too high. You can also suspend the savings plan in your portfolio from time to time. So the apartment is held for as long as it is occupied and then sold when I buy a house.

About the equity strategy: I'll try to summarize this briefly

• Allocation: core-satellite strategy. So core for me is any ETF, satellites are the individual stocks. Core should make up about 80 percent, the individual stocks 20 percent. The buy-in for the individual stocks is always 2000 euros.
• Selection: Dividend strategy - the dividends of the ETFs are reinvested in them, the dividends of the individual shares go into an ETF.
• Buy and hold
• Special feature: I received a loan from a close relative for my apartment, which is repayable on maturity after 8 years. Due to some lucky coincidences, I had the money back together one year after the purchase. So instead of letting it sit in an overnight deposit, I invested it at the beginning of 2024 - with very good timing.

Stock selection and savings plan:

• $VHYL (-1,2 %) The big core - I think the ETF is good because it is broadly diversified and has a good, reliable distribution. I am not currently saving in the ETF. Only the remaining shares from the beginning of 2024 are transferred from the second custody account (I transfer cash to a separate account and make a custody account transfer from the second custody account to mine. The loan amount will then accumulate there).
• $VWRL (-2,15 %) Will be my new second large core and therefore currently saved with 500 euros per month.
• The following individual securities are currently fully saved: $ALV (-3,47 %)
  $BAS (-2,72 %)
  $EOAN (+0,27 %)
  $BATS (+0,96 %)
• As soon as the core share is over 80 percent, further shares are transferred from the second portfolio. $SIE (-4,7 %) shares are transferred from the second portfolio. The total buy-in is therefore also EUR 2000.
• The following stocks are still included in the second portfolio and are transferred bit by bit - whenever there is money and depending on the core share in my portfolio: $VHYL (-1,2 %)
  $VWRL (-2,15 %)
  $PEP (+0,18 %)
  $SIE (-4,7 %)
  $DHL (-2,64 %)
  $VOW (-2,47 %)

Further strategy:

At the moment I feel comfortable with the strategy and until all individual stocks etc. have been transferred to the main portfolio. It will take some time before all the individual stocks etc. are transferred to the main portfolio. In the long term, I am considering $TDIV (-1,33 %) with a 10 percent share. I will then select individual stocks in the future, but e.g. $RIO (-1,15 %) , $MUV2 (-1,72 %) or $MAIN (-2,91 %) I could well imagine.

Looking forward to your comments on this boring strategy 😌

May tastes good with some German companies in the portfolio.

Tui customers book summer vacation later and winter loss falls + Eon increases operating profit strongly at the start of the year + Barclays starts CTS Eventim with 'Overweight' and target price 130 euros + Deutsche Pfandbriefbank confirms forecast

Tui customers $TUI1 (-2,33 %)book summer vacations later and winter losses fall

• The late Easter date is pushing back the business of the travel group Tui this year.
• On the one hand, the Group missed out on sales and profits from Easter vacations in the winter half-year.
• On the other hand, people booked their trips for the summer later than usual, as the travel group announced in Hanover on Wednesday.
• Nevertheless, Tui was able to reduce the typical seasonal loss in the months from October to March.
• For the financial year to the end of September, CEO Sebastian Ebel sees the company on course to achieve its targets thanks to higher travel prices.
• In the winter half-year, Tui achieved a turnover of just under 8.6 billion euros, almost eight percent more than a year earlier.
• The operating loss adjusted for special effects (adjusted EBIT) shrank by 15 percent to 156 million euros, although the second quarter was weaker due to the lack of Easter business.
• The bottom line for the shareholders in the six months was a loss of just under 392 million euros, six percent less than in the previous year.
• For the current financial year, Ebel is still aiming for an increase in turnover of 5 to 10 percent.
• Adjusted operating profit is expected to increase by 7 to 10 percent.

Eon $EOAN (+0,27 %)increases operating profit strongly at the start of the year

• Higher investments and colder weather have helped the energy supplier Eon to achieve a jump in earnings in the first quarter.
• Adjusted operating earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) rose by 18 percent year-on-year to €3.2 billion at the start of the year, as Eon announced in Essen on Wednesday.
• "We have laid a good foundation for a successful financial year 2025," said CFO Nadia Jakobi according to the press release.
• She confirmed the annual forecast as well as the targets for 2028.
• In the first quarter, Eon invested almost 1.5 billion euros, around 22 percent more in the expansion of the electricity grid, such as the modernization and digitalization of the infrastructure and new grid connections.
• The grid business accounts for the lion's share of the Group's earnings and is dependent on regulatory framework conditions.
• At the same time, however, Eon was also helped by the fact that it was colder this year than in the previous year and the demand for energy was correspondingly higher.
• Adjusted net profit for the first three months amounted to EUR 1.3 billion, which corresponds to an increase of 22 percent.
• Meanwhile, the profit attributable to shareholders fell by 9 percent to 529 million euros, which is attributable to non-operating earnings effects from derivatives, for example.

Barclays starts CTS Eventim $EVD (-0,28 %)with 'Overweight' and target price 130 euros

• The British investment bank Barclays has started the valuation of CTS Eventim shares with an "Overweight" rating and a target price of 130 euros.
• According to a recommendation issued on Tuesday, Bernd Klanten expects the solid growth and profitability increases at the ticket retailer and event organizer to continue.
• He expects the share price to double within five years.

Deutsche Pfandbriefbank $PBB (-3,25 %)confirms forecast

• Deutsche Pfandbriefbank (pbb) has confirmed its targets after a slightly better quarter than expected by analysts.
• The commercial real estate financier continues to be concerned about the situation in the USA.
• For this reason, the Pfandbriefbank is reviewing all options for its existing business in the United States as well as the timing of the share buyback announced at the beginning of the year.
• In the first three months, the SDax-listed company announced on Wednesday in Garching near Munich that pre-tax profit had fallen by around 18 percent year-on-year to 28 million euros.
• Earnings fell by almost a fifth to 118 million euros.
• However, analysts had expected an even weaker result.
• Bank CEO Kay Wolf therefore also spoke of a solid quarter.
• "We were able to consolidate earnings in our core business and significantly reduce risk costs," he said and also confirmed the forecast for 2025 as well as the medium-term targets up to 2027.

April was here and it's already over again. Trump's liberation day was not as liberating as we now know. Nevertheless, a lot happened and the stock market remained very volatile in April. After initially falling sharply, it stabilized towards the middle of the month and ultimately rose again, leaving the S&P500 at -3.62% at the end of the month.

In April, I recorded a loss of 3.68%. Given the size of my portfolio, this corresponds to a value of almost €4,000.

Thanks to the dividends, which are gross here in the picture (net = €272.65), this amount is then reduced to just under €3,700.

The Dax (+0.80%) has beaten me again, but compared to the HSBC MSCI World (-4.24%) I am doing better again.

Over the year as a whole (YTD), I have lost ground again to the DAX, which has risen again. At the same time, however, I was able to further extend my lead over the MSCI World. However, as can be seen above, the MSCI World caught up considerably towards the end of the month.

April again showed that my portfolio is quite stable. That's the price you pay if you give up positive returns. Of course, everyone has to decide for themselves how well they can sleep.

My high and low performers in April were (top 3):

Nintendo ($7974 (-2,24 %) ) +15,32%

Eon ($EOAN (+0,27 %) ) +10,42%

Tesla ($TSLA (-2,1 %) ) +8,87%

Pepsi ($PEP (+0,18 %) ) -14,93%

UnitedHealth ($UNH (-5,47 %) ) -20,62%

Petroleo Brasileiro ($PETR4 (-0,29 %) ) -20,89%

Interesting that UnitedHealth was the second-worst stock in February, the second-best in March and now the second-worst again. A very volatile stock at the moment. Understandable, however, after the recent events.

Dividends:

In April, I received €272.65 net from a total of 15 distributions.

Compared to March 2024 (€182.13), this was an increase of 49.7%.

I now expect another increase in May before it falls sharply again afterwards.

Investments:

As in February and also in March, I am still building up my nest egg again. This was actually planned to be completed in April or May at the latest. But now the car is broken and the repairs will cost a lot. So the replenishment continues.

The special payment in April went into the $XEON (+0,02 %). I also treated myself to a South African government bond, which will also mature in the year the first loan is due. I'm happy to take the 8% until then and if I don't see the money again, then it was a try and I can cope with it.

Buying and selling:

I sold Monster with a plus of 12.3%. Simply because I want to reduce the size of the portfolio, Monster does not pay a dividend and we were very close to the all-time high in April.

I bought or increased Gladstone Investment (I'm happy to take the special dividend in June), Texas Instruments, LVMH, Rio Tinto, United Health, Lockheed Martin and Waste Management.

Savings plans (125€ in total):

• Cintas ($CTAS (-1,68 %) )
• LVMH ($MC (-2,3 %) )
• Microsoft ($MSFT (-3,33 %) )

Target 2025:

My goal is still to have € 130,000 in my portfolio at the end of the year. The goal is to be achieved by reinvesting the dividend, making payments and, of course, increasing the share price. The share price increase is of course impossible to predict in any way, so the motto is: if the share price falls or does not rise enough, more cash is needed.

This comes from selling useless stuff on eBay, additional income from e.g. "neighborhood help" etc.

The worse the share price, the more additional cash has to be raised.

Target achievement at the end of April 2025: 22.22%

I'm slowly lagging behind the average. It's definitely going to be very sporty this year.

Let's see what else is coming. Now that Trump has probably signed a commodities deal with Ukraine, the share price will rise again somewhat, at least in the next few days. After that it will be uncertain again.

How was your April? As the getquin monthly report for March was not published, I am now looking forward to the April report.
