Hello Copiers, Followers, and eTorians!
Welcome to my portfolio update for February 2025.
Performance Overview
- February: -15.37%
- YTD: -9.10%
- 2024 Performance: +46.68%
- Risk Score: 6 (Medium)
- Active Copiers: 18
Market Insights: February 2025
The U.S. stock market had a negative month, with major indices posting losses:
- S&P 500: -1.42%
- Dow Jones Industrial Average: -1.58%
- Nasdaq Composite: -3.97%
The crypto currency sector has also registered negative performances with a -17.62 % for Bitcoin, falling below $80K.
What Drove This Performance?
The negative performances in both U.S. stock markets and Bitcoin during February 2025 were driven by a combination of:
- President Donald Trump’s administration has proposed significant tariffs on various imports, including cars, semiconductors, and pharmaceuticals.
- Major outflows from Bitcoin ETFs.
- Speculation that the AI boom is failing to live up to the hype
- Geopolitical tensions escalated following a contentious meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the White House, with Trump accusing Zelenskyy of “gambling with World War Three”
Portfolio Snapshot
Current Asset Allocation:
- 28% Stocks
- 30% ETFs
- 11% Crypto
- 31% Cash
My risk score remained stable at 6 (medium) throughout February. I have not closed any position during the recent decline.
Looking Ahead: What’s Next for March 2025?
March will be a volatile month due to the following factors:
- The next FOMC meeting on March 19-20 will be crucial. Markets are watching whether the Fed hints at rate cuts in June or if strong inflation data pushes them to delay.
- Geopolitical uncertainty (Russia, China tariffs) could trigger market swings.
- Bitcoin faces key support levels
My strategy remains the same: monitor the markets daily, make strategic adjustments, and maximize returns while keeping a medium-risk profile.
Recommendations for Copiers
If you’re considering copying my portfolio, here’s how to make the most of it:
- Invest a minimum of $2,000: This ensures proper diversification and mirrors my portfolio effectively.
- Focus on the long term: Keep the copy open for an extended period to benefit from compounding and market recoveries.
- Starting smaller? Begin with a lower amount and add funds later to build your investment.
Now is still an excellent time to start copying my portfolio or to add more funds if you’re already a copier.
Goals for 2025
- Outperform the S&P 500: Aim for another year of market-leading performance.
- Maintain a medium risk score: Balance risk and reward effectively.
- Achieve Champion Popular Investor status: Grow and strengthen our investment community.
