I'm excited to share an in-depth performance review of my eToro portfolio today. I've analyzed the last 12 months, and the results clearly show that a focused strategy can significantly beat the market.
Here are the final numbers, from October 2024 to today:
- 📈 My eToro Portfolio: +53.63%
- 💻 Nasdaq 100 ($NSDQ100): +24.40%
- 📊 S&P 500 ($SPX500): +16.40%
- 🏭 Dow Jones ($DJ30): +9.78%
As the chart shows, not only did I beat the market, I more than doubled the performance of the strongest benchmark index, the Nasdaq 100! This result is proof that a targeted, high-conviction strategy can make a huge difference.
So, how did this happen? Let's break down the key pillars of my winning strategy:
1. Going Beyond the Benchmark
This year, passively investing in a Nasdaq ETF would have been a great move. But my strategy aimed higher. I focused on specific disruptive stocks within the biggest tech megatrends—names with a higher potential for exponential growth than the giants that dominate the index. This active selection is what created the real performance gap.
2. Using Volatility as Fuel
The chart is honest: during the market correction in April, my portfolio dipped lower than all the indices. That's the price of a concentrated growth portfolio. Many would have sold. I held firm, confident in my long-term thesis. The explosive recovery starting in May proved that patience and conviction were rewarded.
3. Active Selection, Not Passive Investing
These results don't come from just buying an ETF. They require active management: studying fundamentals, understanding the macro environment, and having the courage to invest in innovative companies like $RKLB, $OKLO, and $RGTI before they become mainstream.
4. Understanding the Market Narrative
The indices tell a clear story: tech ($NSDQ100) led the market, while industrial stocks ($DJ30) lagged. My strategy fully embraced this trend, concentrating capital where the real growth was happening.
Conclusion
Beating the market is tough. Beating its strongest sector is even tougher. This +53.63% return demonstrates the power of a focused strategy that accepts calculated risk to aim for extraordinary returns.
I'm proud of these results and will continue to share my journey and analysis with full transparency.
PS: The past is a lesson, not a guarantee. But the strategy remains the same: find the companies that will build our future and invest in them with conviction.
