After much deliberation and a lot of tax calculations, I decided to sell my long-time Nasdaq ETF. The P/E of ~40 was just too hot for me and the ever increasing weighting of bubble-like stocks like $PLTR (-3,33%) and $MSTR (-6,56%) (and a few others that don't excite me at all) really got on my nerves. In my X-Ray Holdings analysis, I saw how they kept creeping up - that was enough for me. What's more, my US and tech allocation has continued to grow in recent years. Not dramatically, but more than I would like.
So I completely liquidated the Nasdaq and reallocated the money: 75% into an S&P 500 Quality Aristocrats ETF $QUS5 (-0,17%) and 25 % into an S&P Global Quality Aristocrats ETF $QDEV (-0,79%) . I want to invest in companies that really make money and not just sell fantasies. The two ETFs are still fairly new and currently have little volume and AUM (I am aware of the risk). But they fit my strategy perfectly: only companies with at least 10 years of positive free cash flow (FCF), high FCF margin and strong ROIC. Exactly my thing! 🎯
Sure, the ETFs might take a while to get bigger, but I'm all about long-term quality and stable cash flows - no hype, no gambling! 🚀📈
