Opportunities & investment thesis

- Demographics & consumption boom in Mexico and Central America

- Digital transformation: eCommerce + logistics network being aggressively expanded

- Defensive business model in a region with high potential in retail

- Interesting currency (MXN) with positive real interest rate and relative stability vs. USD/EUR

Risks

- Concentration on Mexico - high domestic dependency

- Political risks (e.g. wage regulation, tax policy)

- Margin pressure from online trading and new competitors

- Currency risk for euro investors

Chart technology

- After months in a downtrend, the trend may be reversing after the last breakout

- short-term overbought

Personal assessment

- Interesting long-term quality share with a defensive profile

- Solid mix of dividend, growth 🤑 & emerging market exposure

- I am invested and would like to increase the position in the event of a setback 🤓

General Mills $GIS (-0,35 %) (fair-favorable, interesting)

Wal-Mart de Mexico $WALMEX* (+0 %) (downtrend - weak peso?)

P&G $PG (-0,47 %)

Costco $COST (-0,56 %)

Church & Dwight $CHD (-0,75 %) (very expensive - silent expansion underway? see German website)

Pepsi $PEP (-1,18 %)

Monster $MNST (+0,08 %)

Coca Consol $COKE (+0 %)

Lotus Bakeries $LOTB (-0,46 %)

Mondelez $MDLZ (-0,08 %)

Most of them are still "very" expensive in my opinion, despite the current price declines.

I would be interested to know which are your favorites for a long-term investment?

$WMT (-0,16 %) Why did Walmart Mexico crash like this? I can't find any information about it.

I will soon have some money available to invest again, which I would like to use for additional purchases.

First and foremost, I want to further expand my ETF positions.

I would particularly like to buy more of my individual stocks at the moment:

• Canadian National Railway $CNR (-2,47 %)
• 
  Nestlé $NESN (+0,73 %)
• 
  PepsiCo $PEP (-1,18 %)
• 
  Daikin Industries $6367 (-0,64 %)
• 
  Walmart de Mexico $WALMEX* (+0 %)

These are all long-term positions in my portfolio, which I think are currently valued quite favorably.

What do you think of these 5 companies?

I am grateful for any input!

Depot update:

I have again exchanged a few of my 45 long-term individual positions for stocks that I simply feel more comfortable with for the next few years.

Once again, a brief summary of my strategy:

1) I want to bring the two large ETF positions to 25% weighting each, as the core of the portfolio.

2) I would like to hold and save the 45 individual positions for the long term, as I consider them to be good buy & hold investments that have the potential to beat the market in the long term.

3) I would like to hold cryptos at a weighting of around 5%. If the weighting exceeds 10%, I halve it again and invest the money freed up in equities.

Considerations/plans:

- Additional purchases are planned for positions that are not yet as large for me, for example. $NOC (-1,15 %) I would like each position to be at least €600

• Also bid $V (-0,57 %)
  $CNR (-2,47 %) and $WALMEX* (+0 %) are currently offering me good opportunities for additional purchases
• I am currently considering "only" weighting the two ETFs with 20% each and also adding the $CSNDX (-0,32 %) with a 10% weighting... But I don't think I will do that, the heavyweights from the Nasdaq 100 are already well weighted in my portfolio anyway

What do you think about the portfolio, what would you change?

PS: I'm not actively looking to collect a lot of dividends and I'm aware of the high number of individual stocks, so I can live with that.
