Dear community,

I have been building up my portfolio step by step since summer 2020. I'm starting to feel comfortable with the weighting of the individual sectors and also with the geographical distribution. My approach is buy and hold, but I have also made corrections and unfortunately paid a lot of empty money, especially in the early days. I have invested in stocks such as $SPGI (-0,29 %) , $V (-0,16 %) , $ISRG (-1,15 %) ,$AMZN (-2,39 %) , $IVSB , $NVDA (-3,63 %) , $ABBN (-0,07 %) and unfortunately sold them again. When I look at the returns on these shares, I feel dizzy😆 Perhaps you have any tips, suggestions or criticism for my portfolio? Do you have any stocks that you sold and regretted afterwards? But I have to say that I have learned a lot over the years and this is certainly very valuable🤓

I still have the following stocks on my watchlist and would buy them immediately in the event of a major setback: $CSU (-0,46 %)
$WKL (-1,49 %)
$RMS (+0,11 %)

The company will continue to focus on organic growth and strategic acquisitions to further strengthen its market position.

I have now set myself a limit and will wait until it is reached.

As I don't have any ETFs in my portfolio and have always only invested in individual shares, I really like having holdings in my portfolio. In view of the tense geopolitical situation, increasing deglobalization and general uncertainty, I feel all the more comfortable with this.

My holdings are:

Berkshire Hathaway 🇺🇲 $BRK.B (-0,13 %)

Itochu 🇯🇵 $8001 (+0,66 %)

Investor AB 🇸🇪 $IVSB

Brookfield Corporation 🇨🇦 $BN (-1,74 %)
