Hi all
here's some info on my strategy, it's core-satellite method
ETF's is the biggest part with
Core:
$VUSA (+1,5 %) & $VEUR (+0,39 %)
Satellite:
$ASWC (-0,36 %) & $DFEN (+0,34 %) as Defense investing, due to EU pulling 5% of GDP with 2030 target
$IGLN (-0,04 %) for the gold exposure, minimizing downtrend when markets drop
$JEGP (+0,92 %) to make use of market volatility as source of income
$TDIV (+0,56 %) past performance is great, dividends of 3-4% always nice income
Individual stocks: mostly dividend stocks as we can deduct €240-region of dividend income of those indidual stocks, sadly not of ETF's.
$$KBC (+1,2 %) is marked as pension plan. I do work for KBC and once a yearn i can buy stocks and deduct some of it from my taxes, also buying on cheaper prices.
$UNP (+1,46 %) will be a good long-term hold as america is still the biggest, and with trump it should have some long-term growth in it.
$ARCAD (-1,43 %) is a value play, aiming to sell around €58, but in meantime, giving dividend to deduct taxes.
$JNJ: (+0,55 %) always good to have this one, great long-term hold and steady source of dividends
$ASML (+1,25 %) : love this stock, it's a monopoly and is growing strongly, keeping this as long as i like the progress
Today I topped up a little on the following titles:
What's currently on your buy list? Have you bought anything recently?
Today I opened two new positions:
At $KR (+0,58 %) I bought a little more - solid replenishment for the portfolio.
How are you using today's dip?
Are you buying more or just sitting back and relaxing?
I'm definitely going to treat myself to an after-work drink🍺 Red figures don't stop me from investing.😜
