TheBigBanks @TheBigBanks: "Dear Investors, Here is your monthly..."

Smart Portfolio

Dear Investors, Here is your monthly update for December 2025 ✨ December was a mixed month for markets, with some indices near record highs and others showing modest weakness. Even so, 2025 was a strong year for equities, as major US and European benchmarks posted double-digit gains. Technology and AI stocks saw profit-taking, prompting rotation into other sectors and allowing the Dow Jones to outperform the Nasdaq 100. Performance within the “Magnificent 7” was more selective than in previous years. Gold and silver rose on geopolitical risks, space stocks rallied on IPO and policy optimism, and crypto markets were quiet. A modest Fed rate cut supported sentiment, but uncertainty around policy and growth keeps diversification important heading into 2026. 💭 Find out more about what happened in December with eToro's Smart Portfolios Monthly summary here: etoro.turtl.co/story/etoros-investment-office-performance-report-dec25 **New on eToro!
