🧭 𝐌𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐉𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐲 – 𝐖𝐞𝐞𝐤 𝟔𝟐 Another very volatile week in the stock markets. Things started off on a positive note as more signs emerged that the U.S. government shutdown was close to being resolved, which lifted investor sentiment. Major indices — and my own portfolio — jumped, at one point mid-week gaining nearly 4%. But toward the end of the week, optimism faded into caution. Bond yields climbed, the tech sector came under pressure, and the indices pulled back. Despite all the ups and downs, my portfolio ended the week on a strong note with a +2.43% gain, very close to European markets, while the U.S. and UK finished more or less flat: 🇺🇸 $SPX500 : +0.08% 🇪🇺 $EUSTX50 : +2.40% 🇬🇧 $UK100 : +0.16% The pattern inside my portfolio looked much like recent weeks: 14 holdings gained, 11 declined. However, this time the winners clearly outweighed the losers — the average increase was around 5.3%, with the best performer up 13.7%, while the declining positions fell only about 2.9% on average. Overall, a very enjoyable week, though the late-week drop off leaves some questions heading into the next one. The strong performance was also reflected in the eToro Popular Investor program metrics: the number of copiers rose to 104 (+4 vs last week), and total copied equity increased by roughly $1,000, reaching $95.7K. Long-term results improved sharply after such a strong week: 🔹 2025 return: +35.4% — still more than double the average of the markets I track (+16.7%). 🔹 Since strategy launch: +52.1%, more than triple the market average (+16.6%). Top weekly movers: 🔺 $6990.HK (Sichuan Kelun Biotech Biopharmaceutical Co Ltd) : +13.69% 🔺 $RRL.ASX (Regis Resources Limited) : +9.63% 🔻 $FCT.MI (Fincantieri S.p.A) : -7.76% 🔺 $SSRM (SSR Mining Inc) : +6.67% 🔺 $HEIJM.NV (Koninklijke Heijmans NV) : +6.45%
