Yes, yes... I can already hear it: far too much crypto and heavily in the red. But the cryptos are still a remnant of my time before the current Yuh portfolio.

But knock yourself out and roast my portfolio - bearing in mind that ETH and SOL will be sold at some point and either rolled over into ETFs, individual stocks or BTC.

I'm also open to criticism and feedback, suggestions for adjustments and advice.

Regarding my strategy: I buy CHF 100 per month in $VHYG (+0,62%)
$VWCE (+0,61%)
$CHDVD
$XMME (+1,16%) as well as $ZGLD and $BTC (+0,6%) . I also buy up to CHF 400 in individual stocks on my watchlist, which I want to buy and hold for the next 15 years, if not 30 years, until I retire (or longer).

For the most part, I buy individual companies that I support personally and in the long term, consume myself or simply find suitable (e.g. because they pay regular, good and annually increasing dividends).

Hello everyone

I (m, 30 years old) recently did another evaluation of my portfolio with the getquin-AI, as I was not exactly satisfied with a value of around 40/100.

About my investments: I buy CHF 100 per month in $VHYG (+0,62%) , $VWCE (+0,61%) , $ZGLD , $CHDVD and approx. 500 in selected individual shares. My investment horizon is 15 years +, if not 30 years until I retire. My aim is to build up assets and generate a certain cash flow.

Now the question arises for me - because the getquin-AI says I should not leave out emerging markets - whether I should invest in the Xtrackers MSCI Emerging Markets UCITS ETF $XMME (+1,16%) as a supplement. Through $VWCE (+0,61%) and $VHYG (+0,62%) I have already invested a certain amount in EM. Should I use the $XMME (+1,16%) buy a larger share or would that be unnecessary?

(I have already invested CHF 100 once this month and the points value went up from 40 to 60/100).

I appreciate your feedback.

Hello everyone and thanks again if you have any constructive feedback:

I have recently been thinking about my strategy (monthly +/- CHF 500.- in individual shares) in order to expand it with CHF 100.- each in $CHDVD
$VWCE (+0,61%)
$VHYG (+0,62%) and $ZGLD . At the end of the year, I would then rebalance each time in order to buy more shares in the ETFs with my savings and/or 13th month's salary. I am aware that I have major overlaps with the ETFs and that I am pursuing specific goals. But that is not the core of my question...

What do you think about investing 50% in individual shares, 40% in ETFs and gold, saving 10% and rebalancing at the end of the year?

The same thing happens again and again: Stocks like Novo Nordisk
$NOVO B (+0,21%) or UnitedHealth $UNH (+0,83%) lose a lot of value and suddenly everyone senses a great opportunity to get in. "Now the share is cheap!", they say. But be careful: a falling share price does not automatically make a share attractive.

There are almost always reasons for share price falls. In the case of UnitedHealth, for example, political risks and growing competition in the healthcare sector are causing uncertainty. At Novo Nordisk, the hype surrounding weight-loss drugs is being held back by real supply problems and high valuations.

Many investors are buying into the falling knife because it looks like a "bargain" but price does not equal value! A company that costs 30-60% less today can still be too expensive if the prospects are poor.

👉 Instead of betting on individual stocks, broadly diversified ETFs such as the FTSE All-World $VWRL (+0,72%)
$FWRG (+0,67%) provide a better balance of risk and return:

- More than 3000 companies

- Cross-sector - tech, pharma, industrials, consumer, financials, etc.

- No cluster risk: if one company stumbles, others pick it up

- Proven Long-term return of 6-8 % p.a. over decades

Additional tips from the Lord:

If you are still looking for excess returns or additional diversification, get 2-3 more satellites such as Bitcoin $BTC (+0,6%) , gold $ZGLD or a Nasdaq Etf $XNAS (+0,9%).

Conclusion:

Buying cheap is good, but only if you know what you are actually buying and not because the price was there once and has now fallen by a few percent. This is not the way to strong returns in the long term, but only entertaining gambling fantasies. Better go to the casino for that! Individual stocks can dazzle in the short term, but disappoint in the long term. An all-world ETF is boring but exactly the opposite in terms of returns.

Thanks for reading your Sith Lord Vader!

In the world of investing, structure and weighting are crucial, especially if you want to build a sustainable and high-yielding portfolio. The following chart shows my target weighting

target weighting, based on the core-satellite principle. This model combines stability with targeted growth potential, a balance between risk and opportunity.

The portfolio structure at a glance:

1. core component - 73.7% (between 70-80%) FTSE All-World (blue) $VWRL (+0,72%)
and $FWRG (+0,67%) The majority of my portfolio is made up of the FTSE All-World ETFwhich tracks over 4,000 companies worldwide. This broad diversification is the basis for long-term asset accumulation and protects against individual risks.

Advantages:

• Worldwide diversification in industrialized and emerging countries
• Automatic access to the world's largest companies
• High stability with moderate risk
• Automatic rebalancing if, for example, America loses economic power.

2. satellite components - 26.3% (max. 30%) opportunity-oriented additions

These components increase the return potential through targeted investments outside the broad market index:

- 15.8 % Bitcoin (brown) $BTC (+0,6%)

I see Bitcoin as a promising but volatile investment. As a decentralized store of value and possible "digital gold", it can benefit greatly in the long term, especially if demonetization continues or institutional acceptance grows.

- 10.5 % gold ETF (orange) $ZGLD

This is a physically deposited gold ETFa classic safe haven with digital access. Gold has historically provided reliable protection against inflation, geopolitical uncertainty and currency risks. ZGLD combines these advantages with the efficiency of an ETF.

(Currently: portfolio still has too little gold and All-World monthly savings plan runs on the FWRG and weekly savings plan on the ZGLD.

Bitcoin is more of a lump sum if more fallen and aligned to 4-year cycle.

Otherwise just a small gamble on Take-Two $TTWO (+0,49%) with the GTA 6 hype going on but will then be sold shortly before release and regrouped).

Why this portfolio?

The core-satellite model offers me several advantages:

• Stability through the core share (FTSE All-World)
• Flexibility & innovation through satellites (Bitcoin and gold)
• Risk control through clear weightings

It is a portfolio that is designed for the long term, i.e. not a short-term speculative portfolio, but a well thought-out structure with a strategic focus on the next 10-40 years.

Possible further developments

Of course, no portfolio is set in stone or perfect. Here are a few considerations for possible further development:

• Further satellite ideasEmerging markets, AI ETFs, small caps, dividend stocks
• Rebalancing strategy: Review the weighting once a year and adjust if necessary
• Hedging strategiesE.g. through cash quota or bonds for times of crisis

And now it's up to you:

• What does your portfolio weighting look like?
• Are you more interested in stability or do you take more risk?
• What role do crypto or precious metals play in your strategy?
• Do you also use the core-satellite model or do you take a different approach?

I look forward to your input, your experiences and your questions in the comments!

Your Lord Vader!

Tariffs, protectionism and an America First mentality that does more harm than good. But what does this have to do with your finances? Quite a lot. Trump's economic policy is a good example of why you shouldn't just rely on the USA as an investment location and why ego in politics can cost you your investment returns in the long term.

Tariffs: expensive, pointless, harmful

One of Trump's favorite tools was (and is) the tariff stick. Whether against China, Europe or Mexico. Trump believes that higher tariffs will protect American jobs and strengthen the domestic economy. In reality, however, these measures have had one main effect: rising prices for consumers, growing uncertainty for companies, the stock market and declining competitiveness.

Example: The punitive tariffs on Chinese products have forced many US companies to either accept higher purchase prices or make expensive changes to their supply chains. Consumers and investors ultimately pay the price when company profits come under pressure.

His ego: above all else

Trump's actions are not economically rational, but impulsive and egocentric. Decisions are often made on instinct or, worse still, to nurture his own ego. Economic logic or long-term planning? Probably not the case.

The problem: the markets don't like uncertainty. If one man introduces tariffs, terminates contracts or strains trade relations out of spite or a desire to make a name for himself, this becomes a political risk, one that can have a direct impact on your portfolio.

Conclusion: Why you shouldn't just bet on the USA

Although the USA is an important business location with many innovative companies, it is not the world. Anyone who invests their money exclusively in US equities or in a pure S&P 500 ETF is taking a cluster risk, both politically and economically. Trump's time in office has impressively demonstrated how quickly an environment that is considered safe can turn into a highly dangerous playground for political arbitrariness.

My tip: World ETF, Bitcoin and/or gold instead of ego roulette and cluster risk

In the long term, you are best off with a globally diversified ETFfor example on the MSCI World $IWDC or FTSE All-World $VWRL (+0,72%)
$FWRG (+0,67%) . This spreads your risk across many countries and sectors and makes you less dependent on whether a single president is in a good or bad mood. If you want other assets, I recommend a manageable share of Bitcoin $BTC (+0,6%) and/or gold $ZGLD!

Trump shows how irrational politics can be. Your investment should be exactly the opposite: rational, broadly diversified and long-term oriented.

Bottom line: Trump stinks - economically speaking (perhaps literally). His tariffs do more harm than good and his ego is a ticking time bomb for the markets. If you invest wisely, you won't be rattled by this, but will focus on the whole world instead of a single political uncertainty factor.

What is your opinion on this? What do you do with your portfolio in times like these?

Your Lord Vader!

My strategy for the next 15+ years: buy & hold with dividend power!

I am currently building up a long-term dividend portfolio step by step with the aim of building up a solid additional income for my future over the next 15 years (and beyond). I am pursuing a "buy and hold" strategy and investing around CHF 500 per month in a broad spread of individual shares, which I personally support and also consume myself, and ETFs.

My focus is on dividend stocks with a stable cash flow, but I am not afraid of risk and also consciously include growth stocks in my portfolio.

I will also continue to expand my crypto portfolio, focusing on BTC, ETH and SOL.

My goal: a growing, global cash flow with simultaneous wealth accumulation.

Subject to change without notice. 😄

Addendum: It is now 950.-, of which 100.- each in $VHYG (+0,62%)
$VWCE (+0,61%)
$CHDVD and $ZGLD and +/- 400.- will be invested in individual shares on my watchlist.

In addition, 100.- remains in $BTC (+0,6%) 750 in viac invest and ~ 605 in my pillar 3a pension plan.
