The Chinese central bank carries out a reverse repo transaction and pumps 1 trillion yuan (139 billion US dollars) into the market.

This could continue to boost the markets and, in particular, the expansion of the $BTC (-0,14%) 🚀

In practice, this means that this is quantitative easing.

An easing of monetary policy and liquidity maneuvers with a strategic goal:

1. hedging the systemic weakness of the Chinese economy (especially local governments, the real estate sector and the manufacturing industry).

2. signal control in domestic markets to suppress volatility and prevent panic.

3. increase risk appetite in global capital markets as liquidity flows outward.

It will be interesting to see how the markets react.

What do you think about factor investing? Based on personal preferences and research, I have created a simple sample portfolio to illustrate the potential of this strategy. I compared it with the MSCI World Index $IWDA (+1,34%) index.

The results are quite convincing - the factor-based portfolio outperforms the benchmark in terms of both return and risk-adjusted performance:

Annualized Return:

• Factor portfolio: 9.02%
• MSCI World: 6.42 %

Volatility (standard deviation):

• Factor portfolio: 14.76
• MSCI World: 14.48

Sharpe Ratio:

• Factor portfolio: 0.55
• MSCI World: 0.39

Maximum drawdown (during the 2008 financial crisis):

• Factor portfolio: -47.7%
• MSCI World: -56.5%

Value at risk (VaR, 95% confidence, 1 year):

• Factor portfolio: -14.5
• MSCI World: -16.5 %

This suggests that a well thought-out factor portfolio can achieve higher returns and at the same time manage downside risk better than a broad benchmark such as the MSCI World.

I look forward to hearing your opinions or how this compares to strategies you are currently pursuing.

U.S. COURT OF INTERNATIONAL TRADE INVALIDATES PRESIDENT TRUMP'S TARIFFS UNDER THE IEEPA - THE PRESIDENT IS NOT AUTHORIZED TO IMPOSE TARIFFS UNILATERALLY.

The President is not authorized to impose comprehensive tariffs under the IEEPA. The Trump administration has already filed an appeal

US court blocks most Trump tariffs, says president exceeded his authority

In a sweeping new ruling, the U.S. Court of International Trade has just blocked President Trump's Liberation Day tariffs, saying that authority is with Congress.

FACT CHECK: While the Constitution grants Congress the power to impose tariffs, Congress delegated much of that power to the Executive Branch in the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, which allows for adjustments to tariff rates without needing Congressional action. Courts have given the executive branch broad authority to negotiate trade, that is until now.

Hello everyone,

what do you think of a defense ETF like the $EUDF (-3,33%) to continue to profit from all defense and military goods?

Or would you prefer a Nasdaq like the $EQQQ (+1,7%) which, however, with my core $IWDA (+1,34%) which of course brings a high USA overweight into my portfolio.

I am looking forward to your opinions🙏

50 % $IWDA (+1,34%)

30% $EIMI (+0,78%)

20% $MEUD (+0,52%)

However, I am considering switching all of this to $VWRL (+1,44%) does that make sense or what do you think?
