Hi guys! Any thoughts on my portfolio? I started investing on march 2024, starting from 100€ and 0 knowledge. I’ve done many mistakes and already sold some positions (every time with profit, even if only 10€ profit). I’m still a noob and keep studying every day so please be kind 🤣

As you can see I also have some single stocks, these are just fun money and I’m using them just for buy and sell and make profit. I’m reinvesting on ETFs all the profits I make from stocks.

Basically I’m going to build my portfolio this way:

50% $VWCE (-0,62%) (this one will always be the core)

10% $WGLD (-0,14%)

10% $ZPRV (-1,46%)

5%/10% fun money (single stocks and a just a lil bit of cripto)

Aside from this portfolio I also have 10k on $XEON (+0,02%) (this is basically my “emergency funds”, since I don’t like/know a lot single bonds and etf bonds).

Thank you in advance!

You can sell anything under 3% allocation to simplify it.

Since when is defense morally dubious?

Hello dear Gequin Community,

I am currently working on restructuring my portfolio. Historically, I currently have a few funds and a number of individual shares.

I would like to switch the funds to ETFs and continue to save in them.

Classically, I would now select the following ETFs:

$VWCE (-0,62%) / $VHYL (-1,03%) and $VFEG (-1,55%)

Now my little thought experiment: Why should I limit myself to three ETFS when I could spread the whole thing much more widely? I have also thought about something like this (with smaller sums, of course):

Of course I have a few duplications here, but I am much more differentiated.

Does this approach make sense in your eyes or is it a modest idea?

Even if some disagree, sector ETFs are not a slice of the pie. It's just like a casino. You bet on a sector and hope to achieve an excess return. It can go well, but it can also go wrong. If you're aware of that, then it's okay. And why shouldn't you limit yourself to just three ETFs? First of all, what is your goal with more than three ETFs? You want to switch for a specific reason. Is that still the case? Do you want to go to the trouble of weighting the individual ETFs depending on what's going well or badly?

Anyone have good suggestions on Defense stocks? I already own $DFEN (-1,93%) but i am looping for a focus in 1 company as well, european defense companys rather than american.

My choice would be clearly $BA. as most of their earnings depend solely on defense. In my opinion and after some research most of the other European defense companies are quite mixed up in their earnings structure and not as overweighted in defense earnings as the US defense companies.

Moin, I am currently actively saving the $HMWO (-0,41%) .

Now I would like to expand my portfolio with another "specialized" ETF. Either in the pharma or defense direction.

For pharma I would take the $WELG (-1,55%) for pharma. Defense would be $DFEN (-1,93%) at the start. Do you see anything problematic about them and which one would you personally prefer?

Thanks in advance.

Why do you want to save in a specialized ETF?

Hello,

I would like your opinion about the following defense ETFs: $DFEN (-1,93%) and $ASWC (-0,52%)

What you think is best for a investing period of 3 years?

Thanks.

Hello, that is difficult to tell. To be honest, I did not know the $ASWC. I just checked the ETF and it seems similar to the $DFEN. Both ETFs have high TER and performed well. They both reinvest the dividends. The companies and the regions they are invested in are similar. I opted for the $DFEN simply because I think that the defense market will grow for the coming 5 years.
