Market Turns Red Amid Global Caution and U.S. Job Data Anticipation
Global stock markets are facing a wave of uncertainty today, and the Dutch AEX index is no exception. Shares of major players like $ASML (-0,01%) and $ADYEN (-0,31%) are under pressure, with ASML notably hit after a critical analyst report. Meanwhile, investors are eyeing key U.S. economic figures expected later this week, including the crucial jobs report. A mix of recent signals—such as declining GDP and rising unemployment claims—has led to caution across global markets.
Adding to the tension is the renewed trade friction between the U.S. and the EU. Washington has imposed fresh import tariffs of up to 25% on European goods like steel and aluminum, prompting swift countermeasures from Brussels targeting iconic American products such as jeans, motorcycles, and whiskey. These escalating tariffs are fueling fears of a broader trade war, which could weigh heavily on transatlantic business and consumer prices.
Interestingly, capital seems to be shifting away from crypto, reinforcing a “risk-off” sentiment. The red day reflects not panic, but strategic hesitation. $BTC (+0,51%)

Life Savings Sitting in a 1.25% Savings Account for Decades
Hi everyone,
I’m reaching out for some help and guidance, especially since this community is full of people willing to share their experience and knowledge.
About 5 years ago, I got to know that my father had most of his life savings sitting in a regular bank account earning just 1.25% interest per year. It honestly hurt to see all his hard work being slowly eaten up because of it. At the time, I tried to convince him to invest at least a portion in something like an ETF, but with no success. I eventually let it go, after all, it’s his money, and I could understand why he chose to be so conservative with it, even if it's not what I would've done.
Now, five years later, he seems to have changed his mind. We’ve started discussing how to allocate the money more effectively. For context he plans to retire in about 9 years.
The idea is to focus a bit more on growth over the next 9 years, and then gradually shift the allocation toward a more fully dividend-focused portfolio. That way, he can generate passive income and won’t have to rely solely on his pension in retirement.
I’m still learning and would really appreciate some feedback from more experienced investors.
Thanks to everyone in advance!
——————————————————————————
Here’s the current allocation we are working on:
🟦 Growth ETFs – 40%
- MSCI World ($IWDA (+0,37%) )
- iShares MSCI EM ETF ($IEMA (+0,23%) )
🟥 Dividend ETFs – 20%
- FTSE All-World High Dividend Yield ($VHYL (+0,46%) )
- VanEck Developed Markets Dividend Leaders ($TDIV) (+0,86%)
🟩 Bonds – 15%
- Xtrackers II Eurozone Gov Bond 25+ ($DBXG) (-0,05%)
Amundi Euro Inflt Expectations 2-10Y ($INFL) (+0,03%)
🟪 Individual Stocks – 7.5%
- Google ($GOOG) (+0,45%)
Unilever ($ULVR) (-0,1%)
ASML ($ASML) (-0,01%)
Allianz ($ALV) (+1,35%)
Visa ($V) (+0,55%)
🟧 Cash Reserve – 2.5%
Emergency Fund – 15%
——————————————————————————
——————————————————————————
I would really appreciate feedback on the following:
- Is this allocation appropriate for someone with 9 years to go?
- Any ETFs or stocks you’d swap in or out?
- Anything you’d do differently in general and why?
——————————————————————————

I would keep it as simple as possible:
I would get rid of the bonds and individual stocks.
Individual stocks because anyway those are in the ETFs you mentioned.
And I don't believe in bonds; I would rather invest in a Minimum volatility ETF if the goal is to reduce the risk.
The "growth" part looks good to me, though the weighting between DM and EM would be different: 90% DM and 10% EM, but then that's also a question of taste.
As for the dividend part, I would just keep $TDIV
Overall, I would then do something like: 62.5% growth, 20% dividend, cash reserve 2.5% and emergency fund 15%.
Fed Congress on July 1/2 Tariff pause at the end of July 9
I'm starting to like posting here, sometimes you even get normal replies ^^
Another opinion poll.
I'm getting vacation pay and the building savings next week and would like to invest most of it, my question would be before the end of the tariff break and the Fed or after?
Would you rather buy in tranches, i.e. a little before the events and a little after, or fully before or after?
I am actually asking as an interest to learn from your experiences for the next decades.
Thanks for the constructive criticism,
My investment horizon is of course long-term, but I would still like to get into a share with a good upside. I buy the share that offers a good entry point $GOOGL (+0,48%)
$MSFT (+0,86%)
$NVDA (+0,7%)
$ASML (-0,01%)
$ALV (+1,35%) are actually my way too go.

Stock search for long-term portfolio
Hello dear people!
I am looking for new and interesting stocks for my long-term portfolio and would like to build up a few new positions.
They should be growth stocks with high quality, away from the big tech stocks.
In addition, they should be rather cheap/fairly valued.
Dividends are not a priority for my investment strategy, so classic defensive dividend stocks would not be an option for me.
Either purchase in tranches or as a monthly savings plan.
Thought I'd ask the great GQ community for advice, maybe you can give me a few new ideas or some inspiration and tell me your favorites 💡
I'm looking forward to your answers/comments 🤗

🥚betting on peace before it happened
God favours the bold. And optimists love longer.
lets see where $ASML (-0,01%) and $ASML (-0,01%) are by end of the week…
2x ASML for 671,4€
13x Amazon for 181,00€
29x Metaplanet for 10,10€
opinions?

It just looks that way because the brave ones who survived and didn't go broke tell very cool stories.
And no books have been written about all the bold losers, so they are forgotten.
Or to put it in the words of Howard Marks
"There are old investors, and there are bold investors, but there are no old bold investors."
New strategy
Hello everyone,
I have been thinking and considering for some time now. After my portfolio presentation, I looked again and thought about how and which strategy I want to pursue exactly.
Here is my first approach for the new strategy:
📊 60% Core - ETF savings plans
$IWDA (+0,37%) -> 25 %
$VHYL (+0,46%) -> 15 %
$DGIT (+0,13%) -> 20 %
🧭 30 % satellite savings plan
$MSFT (+0,86%) -> 10 %
$KO (+0,17%) -> 10%
$PEP (+0,5%) -> 5%
$ASML (-0,01%) ->5 %
🎯 10% opportunity satellites - savings plan
$NVO (-0,59%) -> 5%
$BTC (+0,51%) -> 2,5 %
$ARCA (-7,69%) -> 2,5%
What do you think of this setup? I would let the current shares continue to run and sell them at a profit when the opportunity arises.
This would be my second attempt to build a proper portfolio. My budget is not that big but I am making the best of it. I am open to suggestions and ideas. If you know a better setup then just post it in the comments. 😊
I'm still relatively at the beginning so please be forgiving 😅.
