A lot has happened in my portfolio again in recent weeks. In addition to a few sales (including $GOOGL (+1,49%) and $NVDA (-1,52%)) from hot sectors, I have built up cash and diversified further ($CMG (-0,08%)
$SNPS, (+1,23%)
$BRO (-0,06%)
$AMGN (-0,32%)
$LSEG (+0%)). Further acquisitions and new entries (e.g. $INTU (-0,35%)
$ADP (-0,28%)
$WM (-0,17%)
$CTAS (-0,32%)
$RMS (+1,13%)) are planned. As short- to medium-term trades, I have invested in $Adobe (-0,02%) and $TTD (+0,2%) as short to medium-term trades. I mainly invest for the long term, but a correction (technology, cloud) including sector rotation (consumer, pharma, software) seems inevitable to me. I am therefore taking a wait-and-see approach and, if necessary, I will reenter $GOOGL (+1,49%) and $NVDA (-1,52%) again at the appropriate time.

Please let me know what you think.

I will probably share future updates with you every two months at the beginning of the month (November, January,...).

I wish you all a successful time.

Hello everyone!

My parents are in the process of selling my grandparents' house. It will probably fetch around €275,000. My parents will soon both be 60 years old.

They had initially considered buying another property nearby. But they have moved away again. The lack of flexibility and the time and risk involved with tenants put them off.

I also told them more about investing in the stock market. They were very open and interested, even though they said they had an unfounded fear of shares etc.

Now my question to you. What is the best way to invest the money? I think dividends would be very nice as my parents like the passive income like from a property. But it should also be very well diversified across countries and sectors.

I personally have developed 2 solutions. You can give your opinion as to whether you think the solutions are good or, of course, if you have completely different ideas.

1. the ETF solution

15% $XEOD (-0,01%) Call money ETF. Div. 1.9%

15% $TDIV (+0,21%) VanEck Divi Leaders. Div 3.5%

10% $TRET (+0,24%) Global Real Estate. Div. 3.7%

7,5% $VHYL (+0,14%) Allworld High Div Yi. Div 3.1%

7,5% $PEH (+0,51%) FTSE RAFI EM. Div 3.9%

5% $EWG2 (-0,22%) Gold

5% $SEDY (-0,36%) iShares EM Dividend. Div 8.0%

5% $JEGP (-0,55%) JPM Global Equity Inc Div 7.1%

5% $EEI (+0,45%) WisTree Europ Equity Inc Div 6.3%

5% $IHYG (-0,02%) High Yield Bond. Div 6.1%

5% $EXXW (-0,9%) AsiaPac Select Div50 Div 5.5%

15% Rest German Divi Shares approx. div 2.5%

=100% with 3.7% dividend.

275k ×3,7% = 10.175€

With full taxation 27.99% = 7327€

On average per month: 610€ dividend

With 2k tax-free allowance: 657€ dividend per month

I find it very well diversified, you have overnight money, you have the USA and Europe well represented, but also 12.5% emerging markets ETF. In terms of sectors, finance will be at the forefront. Followed by real estate and energy. I think that's fine.

2. the equity solution

I have selected 34 strong dividend stocks. In the list they are roughly divided into GICS sectors.

15% $XEOD (-0,01%) Overnight ETF. Div 1.9%

12% $EQQQ (+0,03%) Nasdaq100 ETF. Div 0.4%

5% $EWG2 (-0,22%) Gold

2% $O (-0,08%) Realty Income 6.0%

2% $VICI (+0,23%) Vici Properties 5.6%

2% $OHI (+0,08%) Omega Healthcare 7.2%

2% $PLD (+0,19%) Prologis 4.1%

2% $ALV (+0,49%) Allianz 4.35%

2% $HNR1 (-0,32%) Hannover Re 3.4%

2% $D05 (-1,01%) DBS Group 5.5%

2% $ARCC (-1,74%) Ares Capital 9.3

2% $6301 (-0,07%) Komatsu. 4,2%

2% $1 (+0%) CK Hutchison 4.6%

2% $AENA (-1,32%) AENA. 4,2%

2% $LOG (-0,62%) Logista 7.3%

1,5% $AIR (+2,41%) Airbus 1.8%

1,5% $DHL (+0,23%) DHL Group 4.8%

1,5% $8001 (+0,49%) Itochu 2.8%

2% $RIO (+0,18%) RioTinto plc 6.4%

2% $LIN (-0,73%) Linde 1.3%

2% $ADN (+0%) Acadian Timber 6.7%

3,5% $BATS (-0,67%) BAT 7.0%

2% $KO (-0,81%) Coca Cola 2.9

2% $HEN (-0,6%) Henkel 3.0%

2% $KVUE (-0,62%) Kenvue 4.1%

2% $ITX (-0,19%) Inditex 3.6%

2% $MCD (-0,24%) McDonalds 2.6%

2% $690D (-0,2%) Haier Smart Home 5.6

3,5% $IBE (+0,14%) Iberdrola. 4,1%

1,5% $AWK (-0,15%) American Water Works 4.4%

1,5% $SHEL (-0,31%) Shell 4.1%

1,5% $ENB (+0,55%) Enbridge 6.5%

2% $DTE (-0,72%) Deutsche Telekom 2.8%

2% $VZ (-0,15%) Verizon 6.8%

2% $GSK (-0,39%) GlaxoSmithKline 4.2

2% $AMGN (-0,32%) Amgen 3.5%

2% $JNJ (+0,03%) Johnson&Johnson 3.5%

= 100% with 3.5% dividend

275k ×3,5% = 9625€

With full taxation 27.99% = 6930€

On average per month: 577€ dividend

With 2k tax-free allowance: 624€ dividend per month

I also think this solution is cool because you can select the largest companies or strong dividend payers in the individual sectors or countries yourself. And of course you can also select shares with which you have a connection. However, I have focused on shares from the USA, England and Germany because of the withholding tax. Spain is also well represented because of my parents' ties to this country. It's also cool that the NasdaqETF also includes the Microsoft, Amazon, etc. compounders.

What do you think?

2025 - It remains a wild rollercoaster ride. On April 2, Donald Trump sends everything that is not gold on a downward spiral.

And just a few weeks later, investors in the US / in US dollars at least might ask themselves: Tariffs, was there anything at all?

The US indices S&P 500, Dow Jones and NASDAQ have returned to their pre-Liberation Day levels of early April and have recovered all their losses.

Unfortunately, things look somewhat worse for us euro investors due to the strong depreciation of the dollar. An S&P 500 ETF in euros is still around 6% below its level at the beginning of April.

Monthly view:

Nevertheless, there was also a real race to catch up in my portfolio in April. While my portfolio had lost ~10% in March, at the beginning of April there were again price losses of almost -11% on the board. In total, this amounted to ~€70,000 in price losses.

After that, things picked up significantly and April closed with only -3,4%.

This corresponds to price losses of over 11.000€.

The MSCI World (benchmark) was -5.1% and the S&P500 -1.1% (in dollars, for euro investors it was more like -6%).

Winners & losers:

A look at the winners and losers shows a much more balanced picture in April than in March:

On the winner side the top 5 are my two cybersecurity investments with Crowdstrike $CRWD (+0,58%) in 1st place and Palo Alto Networks $PANW (+0,3%) in 4th place. 2nd place goes to Bitcoin $BTC (-1,44%)
, which finally lives up to its status as "digital gold" this month.

The top 5 is completed by MercadoLibre $MELI (-0,01%) in 3rd place and Bechtle $BC8 (-0,49%) in 5th place.

Now a look at the losers' side:

1st and 2nd place go to Starbucks $SBUX (-0,11%) and NVIDIA $NVDA (-1,52%) with losses of €1,300 each. In 3rd place follows Meta
$META (-0,91%) with losses of €1,200, despite the strong quarterly figures at the end of April. Places 4 and 5 then go to two healthcare stocks with Amgen $AMGN (-0,32%) and Thermo Fisher $TMO (-0,19%)

The performance-neutral movements in April were € 650 - these are still lower at the moment due to the issue of house building.

current year:

In the YTD my portfolio is still clearly in the red with -12,4%. The MSCI World is still slightly better at -10.6%.

In total, my portfolio currently stands at ~252.000€. This corresponds to an absolute decline of ~€33,000 in the current year 2025. -37.000€ of this comes from exchange rate losses, slightly offset by ~1.200€ from dividends / interest and ~2.600€ from additional investments.

Dividend:

• Dividends in April were +38% above the previous year at ~221€
• LVMH is in the lead with a (gross) dividend of over €40
• In the current year, dividends after 4 months are +20% over the first 4 months of 2025 at ~955€
• I have reached another milestone with regard to the rolling 12-month view. For the first time, I have received over €3,000 in gross dividends for the last 12 months.
• However, the significant fall in the US dollar is also making itself felt in the dividends. My dividend forecast for this year is now only +5-10% instead of 15-20%

Buying & selling:

• I bought in March for 875€
• 570€ shares
• 205€ ETFs
• 100€ crypto
• Sales there were none in April

YouTube:

My portfolio update for April is now also available on YouTube (as usual). There I also discuss the impact of the US dollar in more detail.

Link: https://youtu.be/EeEZ4JveSec

Target 2025

I haven't really set myself any goals for 2025 due to the issue of building a house. A fixed savings rate is difficult to implement due to the issue (unforeseen costs and the like).

A dividend target will also be very difficult due to the high volatility of the US dollar.

That's why I'm focusing on other topics this year, especially building a house and possibly one or two YouTube successes.

How are things looking for you? Have you also felt the effects of the weak US dollar? Or are you now buying properly and taking advantage of the "strong euro"?

Good evening everyone,

Here are my favorites for the health sector.

Novo Nordisk $NOVO B (+2,92%)

Stryker $SYK (-0,15%)

Intuitive Surgical (P/E ratio 70, P/B ratio 19 🤑) $ISRG (-0,17%)

Astra Zeneca $AZN (-2,72%)

Zoetis $ZTS (+0,13%)

Idexx Lab. $IDXX (-0,15%)

Amgen (profit margin declining) $AMGN (-0,32%)

I would be interested to know what your favorites are for a long-term investment?

2025 - A year to forget if you look at the first quarter. While things were still looking positive until around mid-February, things have been going steadily downhill since the middle or end of February.

March 2025 was the worst single month in my portfolio since 2013, with price losses of almost 10%. The negative market trend in the US and a weak US dollar naturally hurt my portfolio particularly badly.

Monthly view:

In total, March was -9,9%. This corresponds to price losses of almost 30.000€.

The MSCI World (benchmark) was -7.9% and the S&P500 -5.8% (in dollars, for euro investors it was also more like -10%).

Winners & losers:

A look at the winners and losers shows a clear picture in March:

Winners? You will look for them almost in vain this month.

In 1st and 2nd place are Deutsche Bank
$DBK (+0,89%) and Allianz $ALV (+0,49%) two German financial stocks with gains of around € +180 each. Northrop Grumman $NOC (-0,09%) at +120€ is only one of 2 American stocks with a positive price performance in March.

A completely different picture on the losers' side:

1st place goes to NVIDIA $NVDA (-1,52%) with price losses of over €4,200. It is followed by Meta $META (-0,91%) and Palo Alto Networks
$PANW (+0,3%) with price losses of ~€2,000 each. 4th place goes to Alphabet
$GOOG (+1,5%) with €1,600 in share price losses. The flop 5 is then completed by a non-tech stock, namely Starbucks
$SBUX (-0,11%) with losses of ~€1,400.

The performance-neutral movements were €500 in March - these are still lower at the moment due to the house construction issue.

current year:

In the YTD my portfolio is now also clearly in the red with -8,4%. The MSCI World is still doing better at -5.4%.

In total, my portfolio currently stands at ~260.000€. This corresponds to an absolute decline of ~€25,000 in the current year 2025. -28.000€ of this comes from exchange rate losses, slightly offset by ~900€ from dividends / interest and ~2.000€ from additional investments.

Dividend:

• Dividends in March were +8% above the previous year at ~390€
• At the top of the list Amgen
  $AMGN (-0,32%) with meanwhile over 55€ (gross) dividend every 3 months
• In the current year, the dividends after 3 months are +15% over the first 3 months of 2025 at ~730€
• The US dollar will also have an impact on dividends this year. Example: 2,500$ at an exchange rate of 1:1 equals 2,500€. At an exchange rate of 1.08$, these 2,500$ would only be worth 2,315€, a decrease of ~185€

Buying & selling:

• I bought in March for 750€
• 460€ shares
• 190€ ETFs
• 100€ crypto
• Sales Was there no

Change of strategy?

At the moment, Donald Trump and his policies are causing a lot of scrutiny, especially with regard to the (high) US share in the portfolio.

I can understand these thoughts very well. However, I have decided not to change my strategy and to maintain my high US & tech allocation in my portfolio.

There are certainly better short-term investment opportunities (European defense stocks as an example). Through my savings plans, however, I have deliberately opted for a long-term buying strategy that I will not throw overboard every few months. In the long term, for example, 2022 was an extremely good year to buy tech stocks.

As I don't have a portfolio target for this year anyway, I'm happy to go even lower - hopefully I'll be happy about the entry prices in 2-3 years' time.

YouTube:

Unfortunately, I only uploaded 2 videos to YouTube in March. Unfortunately, work in March was extremely stressful and time-consuming, so there was little time left for this.

I have also uploaded my March portfolio update as a video there if anyone would like to see some more information on the portfolio performance: https://youtu.be/fxbvatj6uvM?si=xP_gvoEmtuqSsfz8

I'm particularly happy to receive criticism or feedback here! 😊

Goal 2025

As already mentioned in the January & February review, a fixed deposit target for this year makes little sense due to the house construction. A fixed savings rate is also difficult to implement due to the issue (unforeseen costs and the like).

A dividend target is also very difficult due to the high volatility of the US dollar.

That's why I'm focusing on other topics this year, especially building a house and possibly one or two YouTube successes.

How are things looking for you? Are you sticking to your portfolio target for 2025 or do you also see difficulties in achieving it after the first quarter?

2025 - A stock market year that has so far been more reminiscent of rough seas. It goes uphill and the next moment it goes abruptly downhill again.

The January began with a lot of Trump euphoria on the markets, before this was halted by DeepSeek in the second half of January.

The February recovered relatively quickly from this shock before falling again in the second half of the month. The Trump euphoria has turned into a Trump shock for the time being.

Nevertheless, I will continue to hold a 75-80% USA quota with a high proportion of tea.

I can get over the fact that after 2 years of outperformance against my benchmarks, there may be an underperformance this year.

Monthly view:

In total, February was -3,2%. This corresponds to price losses of almost 10.000€.

The MSCI World (benchmark) was down -2.5% and the S&P500 -1.4%.

Winners & losers:

A look at the winners and losers nevertheless reveals a surprising picture for the top performer in February.

But first a look at the losersThe biggest loser by far is Alphabet $GOOG (+1,5%) With losses of almost €3,000, the share price took a heavy hit in February. This is followed by a total of almost €5,000 in price losses Bitcoin
$BTC (-1,44%) & Ethereum
$ETH (-2,58%) . 4th & 5th place goes to Salesforce
$CRM (-0,02%) and TSMC $TSM (+0,23%) two more tech stocks

On the winning side are actually at the top, much to my own surprise NVIDIA
$NVDA (-1,52%) with a price gain of almost €1,000. And this despite the fact that NVIDIA lost over 10% on the penultimate trading day in February. Nevertheless, the recovery after the DeepSeek shock in February was greater than expected.

The top 5 includes Amgen
$AMGN (-0,32%) and Johnson & Johnson
$JNJ (+0,03%) two stocks from the healthcare sector, a rather defensive sector. These are joined by MercadoLibre $MELI (-0,01%) and Palo Alto Networks $PANW (+0,3%) but also two tech stocks.

The performance-neutral movements were positive again in February at € 900, after January was clearly negative due to a property purchase.

current year:

In the YTD my portfolio is still just in the plus with +0,6%. However, the MSCI World is up +1.9% and I am currently underperforming my benchmark.

In total, my portfolio currently stands at ~288.000€. This corresponds to an absolute growth of ~€3,000 in the current year 2025. ~1.000€ of this comes from price increases, ~500€ from dividends / interest and ~1.500€ from additional investments.

Dividend:

• Dividends in February were 19% above the previous year at ~€188
• At the top of the list Procter & Gamble
  $PG (-0,28%) with now over €50 (gross) dividend every 3 months
• In the current year, the dividends after 2 months are +24% over the first 2 months of 2025 at ~350€

Buys & sells:

• I bought in November for ~800€
• 520€ shares
• 210€ ETFs
• Here I took up a new ETF via a savings plan, an ETF that normally does not correspond to my strategy at all. This is a Covered Call ETF on the NASDAQ $JEPQ (-0,16%) - The ETF uses a covered call strategy to aim for a distribution of ~10% p.a. and still generate price gains. I know that this doesn't make sense from a tax perspective, but what the heck: you can have fun sometimes 😉
• 100€ crypto
• sales there were none in February

YouTube:

I uploaded a few new videos to YouTube in February and I'm starting to feel less stupid talking into a microphone.

I've also uploaded my portfolio update there as a video if anyone would like to see some more information about the portfolio performance in February:

https://youtu.be/iJZ0i3EO5Hs

Here I act according to the motto: Let's see what happens - What will happen!

Goal 2025

Building a house makes it particularly difficult to formulate a goal this year.

A certain savings rate? Difficult if additional costs are suddenly added

A certain deposit value? Also difficult, as I can't really back this up with my savings rate this year and the markets are very volatile.

The current portfolio balance is ~€290,000. I would estimate additional investments at ~€15,000. This would bring me to just over €300,000. I originally assumed a market return of 7% for this year. However, after the first two months it is difficult for me to estimate how this year will go.

That's why I'm being honest: A target doesn't make sense for me this year.

The goal is to build a successful house and for the portfolio we'll just see what happens.

Part 5 of 5
/ Review of the year 2024: In the first 4 parts

of my investment story, I looked at the years 2013 to 2023.

A mixture of highs and lows. While there was a lot of learning at the beginning, the last few years are finally bearing fruit!

Monthly view:

2024 was another very positive year, although December again resulted in a slight loss in the portfolio.

In total, December was -0,8%. This corresponds to price losses of -3.200€.

The MSCI World (benchmark) was -0.9% and the S&P500 -2.5%.

In the following, however, I would like to look primarily at the whole of 2024 and not

just December.

Year as a whole:

Winners & losers:

The winner par excellence is hardly surprising NVIDIA $NVDA (-1,52%) with

almost €20,000 in share price gains! And this despite the fact that I took my entire stake of ~€4,000 off the table in March.

In 2nd place follows Bitcoin
$BTC (-1,44%) with approx. 6,000€ price gains. 3rd-5th place

are shared by TSMC $TSM (+0,23%)
Alphabet $GOOG (+1,5%) and Meta
$META (-0,91%) with gains of ~€5,000 each.

On the loser side it looks very relaxed all in all.

Sartorius $SRT (+1,95%)
Nike $NKE (+0,37%)

and Bechtle $BC8 (-0,49%) have each caused share price losses of ~€1,000. They are followed by LVMH $MC (+2,3%) with share price losses of €500 and Amgen $AMGN (-0,32%) with €200.

All in all, share price losses that are not really worth mentioning.

The performance-neutral movements in 2024 were just under €20,000. This is a significant decline compared to the almost €30,000 from previous years. This was due to some private issues and the upcoming house construction.

My performance for the year as a whole was +28,8% and therefore outperformed my benchmark, the MSCI World, by 25.8%.

In total, my portfolio currently stands at ~347.000€. This

corresponds to an absolute growth of ~95,000€ in the current

year 2023. ~71.000€ of which comes from price gains, ~3.800€ from

dividends / interest and ~20.000€ from additional investments.

Dividend:

• The dividends in December were 17% above the previous year at ~€370
• Amgen is in the lead with over 50€ (gross) dividend every 3 months
• For the year as a whole, my dividends amounted to ~2.900€ and thus almost 25% over 2023

Buys & sells:

- I bought in December for a significantly reduced ~500€

- As always, my savings plans were executed:

- Blue chips: Lockheed Martin $LMT (-0,25%) Republic Services $RSG (-0,05%) Thermo Fisher $TMO (-0,19%) ASML $ASML (+1,93%) Northrop Grumman $NOC (-0,09%) Itochu $8001 (+0,49%) Constellation Software $CSU (+0,09%) Hermes $RMS Salesforce $CRM (-0,02%) MasterCard $MA (-0,11%) Deere $DE (-0,39%)

- Growth: -

- ETFs: MSCI World $XDWD (+0,12%) and the WisdomTree Global Quality Dividend Growth $GGRP (+0,13%)

- Crypto: Bitcoin $BTC (-1,44%) and Ethereum $ETH (-2,58%)

- There were no further sales in December

Target 2024 & outlook 2025:

My goal for 2024 was to reach €300,000 in the portfolio. Due to the

extremely positive market performance in the current year, my portfolio stands at ~€ 350,000 at the end of the year. I was therefore able to significantly exceed my target.

What will happen in 2025? The logical target, of course, would be 400.000€ to be achieved. However, due to the upcoming house construction, part of the assets will be invested in the house construction. If I include the property in my statement of assets, the target of €400,000 would of course not change.

However, as I am more likely to be tracking my liquid assets here, I will probably

probably refrain from doing so.

Therefore, my year-end target for 2025 will probably be closer to the final balance for 2024. So around €350,000 at the end of 2025.

How are things looking for you? Have you already thought about your plans for 2025?

Finally, I wanted to say thank you again for all the positive reactions to my investment story!

Depot review November 2024 - The depot is growing despite larger withdrawals 🚀

Before I continue with the second part of my investment story, I would first like to share my portfolio review for November.

The second half of November was almost quiet compared to what happened at the beginning of November. Trump was elected, triggering a veritable run on the stock markets. Germany was finally freed from the traffic lights and there were also some exciting topics in the private sphere. I sold a few shares back in October to generate the equity I needed to start building a house. This continued a little further in November.

Overall, my savings rate will also (have to) be lower over the next few months. Less into the portfolio and more into the "buffer account" for building the house. Nevertheless, around €500 per month will continue to be invested and this will be pushed up again as quickly as possible.

After selling 6 shares and an ETF in October, I sold parts of my MSCI World ETF for around €13,000.

But now it's finally time to look at the hard figures:

Monthly view:

In total, November was +6,3%. This corresponds to price gains of ~20.000€.

The MSCI World (benchmark) was +7.3% and the S&P500 +5.1%

Winners & losers:

A look at the winners and losers is particularly exciting this month:

On the winning side with a total of almost €5,000 in price gains, my crypto investments in Bitcoin and Ethereum. This is followed by the long runner NVIDIA with price gains of just under €2,000. 4th and 5th place then goes to the cybersecurity sector with Palo Alto Networks and Crowdstrike.

On the loser side looks very quiet this month. Amgen is still the worst performer with losses of ~€600 due to a weight loss drug that failed to fully meet Wall Street's hopes. This is followed by Sartorius with share price losses of €200. Places 3-5 are then occupied by share price losses of less than €100. All in all, a month with almost no losers.

The performance-neutral movements in October amounted to just under € -6,000. Parts have already been removed here for private topics.

current year:

My performance in the current year is +29,9% and thus above my benchmark, the MSCI World with 26.9%.

In total, my portfolio currently stands at ~345.000€. This corresponds to an absolute growth of ~€93,000 in the current year 2023. ~72.000€ of this comes from price gains, ~3.300€ from dividends / interest and ~16.000€ from additional investments.

Dividend:

• Dividends in November were 21% above the previous year at ~€160
• Procter & Gamble is in the lead with a (gross) dividend of €50 every 3 months.
• In the current year, the dividends after 11 months are +25% over the first 11 months of 2023 at ~2.500€

Target 2024 & outlook 2025:

My goal for this year is to reach €300,000 in my portfolio. Due to the extremely positive market performance in the current year, my portfolio already stands at ~€345,000 at the end of November.

As is well known, one should not praise the day before the evening, but I am optimistic that my portfolio will not fall so far in December that I will not reach my target.

What will happen in 2025? The logical goal would of course be to reach €400,000. However, due to the upcoming house construction, part of the assets will be invested in the house construction. If I include the property in my statement of assets, the target of €400,000 would of course not change. However, as I am tracking my liquid assets here, I will probably refrain from doing so.

Therefore, my year-end target for 2025 will probably be closer to the final balance for 2024. So around €350,000 at the end of 2025.

How are things looking for you? Have you already thought about your plans for 2025?
