🧭 𝐌𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐉𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐲 – 𝐖𝐞𝐞𝐤 𝟔𝟒 The roller coaster in the stock market continued — but fortunately this time it went only upward. Despite recent volatility driven by mixed economic signals and geopolitical tensions, this week was dominated by positive news: slowing inflation in both the U.S. and Europe, along with renewed expectations of upcoming interest-rate cuts, helped calm investors. The global tech sector maintained strong momentum, while commodity and industrial companies in Europe and the UK benefited from improving economic indicators. Altogether, this created a supportive backdrop that pushed major U.S. and European indices solidly higher, even as overall market uncertainty persists. For my portfolio, it was an exceptionally strong week. After last week’s nearly 5% drop, I recorded a 6% gain — with all five trading days finishing in the green, several of them very strongly. This consistent upward movement not only fully erased the previous week’s losses but also allowed me to close out a challenging November with a modest +0.43% gain. The main benchmarks also performed well, though clearly lagged behind my portfolio: 🇺🇸 $SPX500 : +3.73% 🇪🇺 $EUSTX50 : +2.78% 🇬🇧 $UK100 : +1.90% As the results suggest, almost all of my positions (23 out of 25) ended the week positive, with an impressive average return of 5.4% per stock. Four holdings posted double-digit gains, and several others came close. There isn’t much more to add — it was a fantastic week that not only helped the portfolio recover from earlier turbulence but also set a solid foundation for December. Let’s hope we see more weeks like this. The eToro Popular Investor metrics remained fairly stable: I lost one copier, bringing the total to 105, but thanks to the strong performance, the total AUC still increased by around $800, now approaching the $92K mark. Long-term results improved further after such a strong week: 🔹 2025 return: up to +36.3%, widening the gap versus the average of my benchmark indices (around +17.2%). 🔹 Since strategy launch (64 weeks): total return reached +53.1%, maintaining a substantial lead over the market average (also ~17.2%). This remains roughly triple the long-term performance of the tracked indices. Biggest movers of the week: 🔺 $SSRM (SSR Mining Inc) : +15.42% 🔺 $KGC (Kinross Gold Corp) : +15.25% 🔺 $ENR.DE (Siemens Energy AG) : +14.38% 🔺 $RRL.ASX (Regis Resources Limited) : +11.82% 🔺 $FTK.DE (flatexDEGIRO SE) : +9.45%
