I said I’d show the lot. So here it is.

Stocks ISA. My own money. No one else’s.

Account value: £74,483.51
Net deposits: £32,836.84
Total return: +£41,646.67
Rate of return: +357%
Cash waiting to be deployed: £8,541.36

Started at £0 aged 18. Six years of hard work, depositing and investing in great companies.

The Portfolio:

Yes. $AMD is nearly half the account.
That was not the plan on day one. It compounded into that weight. +452% will do that.

I am not trimming it because a pie chart looks nicer. I still think the stock can go to $1,000 but it doesn't mean I won't trim before here. If I’m wrong, you’ll see it here.

$NKE is the other side of the same rule. Down 55%. Guidance is brutal.

Turnaround is slower than expected but there are signs (North America Revenue Growth and EPS Beats) and I am still holding. I said that before this reveal. Still true.

Laggards stay in the portfolio until the story plays out. We're not even 1st base with $NKE

How I run the portfolio:

Keep it simple.

I buy every month. Same habit. Wage in, ISA in, done.

Every purchase has a 3–5 year clock on it. Not a week. Not a headline. Fundamentals.

I am 24. Goal is £1m by 40. This is year 6 of that. The +357% is mostly picking great companies and not selling.

Cash is ~£8.5k. Dry powder, not a market call. Happy with this cash % for now.

200 of you showed up in two days. Now 250, and I said I’d open the book. So here it is.

Thank you for the follows, the replies and the support. What a community we're lucky to be a part of.

Feel free to ask questions in the comments: position size, why I own it, why I haven’t sold the red ones. Ask.
I’ll answer.

Keep compounding.

@FynnCapital Yea, seems like a no-brainer!

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

How many of you have an AmEx card?

Thinking of getting one soon.

Are they worth it?

$AXP

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

@FynnCapital Might have to look into it! Do you use the benefits it gives?

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

@TJTheWheelDeal Because in 5 years' time, your $200 will be $800

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

@Ashton_1nvests Same here, Ashton! Long $SOFI

@OGBagdadDave Thanks for the input, David! It seems a very popular choice!

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

@JayThetaIQ How are you finding your $HOOD card?

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

@MasterYoda1991 Nice! Why do you prefer them over $AXP?

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

@kiantrades This is a good thing.

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

@_Warbucks1 Each to their own! Seems fair enough also

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

@joshmx39 Love that! Thanks for your input!

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

@FantasyInvRealm Yes, I've heard that too!

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

@DividendLu Thanks anyway, Lu! Keep up the great work!

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

@xItsTinnyx Typical, in fairness!🤣 $NKE

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

Got to take the good with the bad!

⬇️ £1,300 (1.8%) today alone! Mainly thanks to $AMD.

Now only up 436% on $AMD.

Who would have thought $NKE holding the portfolio from an even worse day!🤣

Just another day in the casino!

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

Here is this in action.

$AMD up 1.8% pre-market.

£1,000 in 1 day.

24 years old.

Keep compounding.

@drayinvests Defo need to look into it! $AXP

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

@cislaliv2000 All the best with it! $PLTR is a fantastic company!

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

@drayinvests Would you say it's worth it?

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

@joshmx39 @TheBigBerbowski Hope so!

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

@JaradCapital Full portfolio transparency on my account!

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

@Path21Mil Thanks mate!

[Aaron | Investor @AaronCompounds]

47% of my account is $AMD.

That was not the plan. It compounded into that.

£25k off the bat is a wedding, a house deposit, or a brand-new car.

I still think $AMD can go to $1,000. I am not selling because a pie chart looks nicer.

But 47% is too heavy.

What price do I start to trim $AMD?
