Who would have thought that silver would outperform my entire portfolio in just 1.5 months?
It had long been superfluous to add commodities to my portfolio, @Multibagger then convinced me with his contributions and finally hit the low quite happily.
Do you have silver or other commodities in your portfolio?
Junior portfolio - 100% FTSE All World or 70-80% +X?
I'm currently setting up a junior custody account for my older son and I'm not sure whether I should put 100% into the $VWCE (-0,04 %) or 70-80% $VWCE (-0,04 %) + X via a monthly savings plan.
How did you handle this with your junior portfolios? I would appreciate your recommendation / assessment.
I have already looked into the advantages and disadvantages of accumulating and distributing ETFs and have decided in favor of the accumulating ETF. The dividends would be too low for automatic reinvestment and my objective is to avoid fees and taxes in addition to minimizing the effort involved in managing the custody account. Using NV, it may also be possible to reallocate once or for the first time after 8-10 years in order to take the profits tax-free.
Have you taken a closer look at silver? Approximately 50% of the performance is driven by monetary factors, and the depreciation of the USD is having an impact today. The other 50% is industrial, and that's where the recession fears come in.
Silver / Silver ETC - similar to Euwax Gold II - tax-free after 12M holding period
Service post stolen from a FB group:
If you are looking for a silver investment and want to enjoy the same benefits as gold with a holding period of 12 months tax-free, you should take a look at the ETC from WisdomTree. This has been around for a few months and offers physical delivery.
