Dear Community,
The Challenge is now in its third month and there have been some minor changes. I would like to tell you about them today.
First of all, some bad news for everyone who finds the experiment interesting, because I'm going to let it come to an end. Not because it has become a financial disaster, but because I don't have the time to look after it in a way that adds value for the community.
So here is something like a final report.
At the last update in November 2025, after the sales of $HIMS (+9,5%) and $3350 (+1,38%) and the purchase of $DEFI (+5,17%) the following stocks were still in the running:
$DEFI (+5,17%) with 245 shares
$LTMC (-1,85%) with 23 shares
$AIXA (+7,54%) with 36 shares
$CRCL (+4,13%) with 5 shares
Already on 06.01.2026 $LTMC (-1,85%) had to pack his bags as the regulatory issues had become too confusing for me.
Shortly afterwards, on 19.01.2026, I also had to $AIXA (+7,54%) had to leave the portfolio with a positive result.
This left only the two stocks $DEFI (+5,17%) and $CRCL (+4,13%) remained.
Unfortunately, both stocks were a reach for the ceramics and did not perform satisfactorily.
$DEFI (+5,17%) -62,21%
$CRCL (+4,13%) -45,95%
As a punishment, these two positions will be held until they reach € 0 or offer a surprise.
The result of this experiment is therefore sobering, but it was clear from the outset that it was a gamble and, as I wrote in the last post on this experiment, nobody who presented one of the stocks has anything to reproach themselves for!
Here is the final statement before deducting the positions that found a place in the experiment:
$HIMS (+9,5%) Buy € 546.92 Sell € 496.32 Result - € 50.60 -9.26%
$3350 (+1,38%) Purchase € 525.00 Sale € 459.00 Result - € 66.00 -12.58%
$LTMC (-1,85%) Purchase € 518.42 Sale € 522.56 Result +€ 4.14 +0.8%
$AIXA (+7,54%) Purchase € 503.64 Sale € 666.72 Result +€ 163.08 +32.38%
$DEFI (+5,17%) Purchase € 1,012.10 Current value € 382.52 Result -€ 629.58 -62.21%
$CRCL (+4,13%) Purchase € 555.00 Current value € 300.00 Result -€ 255.00 -45.95%
The bottom line is that € 2,827.12 of the € 3,661.08 invested in the course of the experiment, including the securities still in the portfolio of $DEFI (+5,17%) and $CRCL (+4,13%) have become.
This means a loss of € 833.96 or 22.78% within the three months of the experiment.
What do I take away from the experiment? That I lost money? No, that's the product, but not the insight, not what I take away.
For me, the insight is that you can be convinced of a share by an idea, but this is no guarantee that the company will perform in the same way.
The tips were not bad, but the market has its own rules. It may well be that each of these stocks will be worth many times more in 3 years' time. That's why I'm simply leaving the two remaining stocks in my portfolio - after all, they don't eat bread ;)
With any investment, you have to be aware that an investment can go either way. Therefore, in addition to a conviction in a company, a precise analysis of the fundamental data is also important. Very often, companies are presented here with an absolutely outstanding performance, including all the data. Many of these companies will certainly become multibaggers in the future with strong growth. Some will need a little more time, others a little less. But some of them may also end in a total loss.
My tips after the experiment:
Decide on stocks that are absolutely convincing to you and the figures "fit"
Set yourself limits up to which you can cope with losses
Don't forget the "safe" stocks, despite all the hope of making big gains in a short space of time
With this in mind, the rabbit wishes you a nice Sunday, even if he is looking a little sad at the moment, he is not in a bad mood and hopes that the experiment has also given you a little added value.
