โDay 1 of new account...
Current portfolio: ยฃ58,478
โDown over ยฃ5,100 (-9%) this past month, but the eyes are firmly on the prize.
The goal is a ยฃ1M+ tax-free ISA in 5-10 years, and I think ยฃ100k isn't too far away.
โHere is how a 35y/o UK investor got here... ๐ (1/2)
May 2025.
Peak tariffs were hitting, the portfolio was absolutely in the mud, and I had a horrible sinking feeling in my stomach every single day.
โLosing over ยฃ7,500 on a single position hurts, no matter how much you back your thesis.
โ
It went red for months. It felt relentless.
โBut instead of panicking and cutting losses at the bottom, I stayed convicted.
I looked at the fundamentals, ignored the noise, and kept adding to my positions on the way down.
โ
Fast forward to June 2026.
That exact same portfolio is now 3x bigger ๐๐๐
If you can't handle the red months, you won't be around to see the green years.
Stay convicted. ๐
Wow what an awesome community! Already up at nearly 250 follwers after setting up a few days ago.
Thanks to everyone for the support. I am so glad I set up a dedicated account. Literally talk about stocks all day ๐ ๐ so it made sense to set up an account to document my ramblings ๐คฃ๐คฃ
TRUMP:
- DEAL WITH IRAN IS COMPLETE
- STRAIT OF HORMUZ IS NOW OPEN
- NAVAL BLOCKADE WILL STOP IMMEDIATELY
Official signing will be on June 19th in Switzerland, as per the Pakistani PM.
nice of Trump to do this 30 minutes before futures opening ๐
Thanks to everyone who has followed recently, 113 followers in just a few days!
I set up this account on a whim (as I am already busy running other social media channels for my startup), however the growth in a few days has been fantastic.
I genuinely could talk for days on end about the stock market and investments - so I love that I have found a community of like minded people.
Looking forward to connecting with more like minded people and following your journeys!
@anectdotey Tbh my price target on $NVDA is $250-300 minimum, this was at $236, so its a decent bit lower now my return.
May not sell/ trim there but thatโs when I start seriously considering it
Exactly 1 month ago we were flying.. $NVDA hit $236, $GOOGL crossed $400+.
I really thought ยฃ70k+ was in sightโฆ
Weโll get back there, was nice for the short time it lasted ๐
@DerekDonkey1977@FinTradesX My car is a Kamiq but the image is just a GIF so might be another model, maybe a Karoq? Didnโt want to post my actual car haha
Yeah solid plan,
I assume you both live with family/parents now then?
It sucks living with parents as you want independence but itโs such a powerful way to save/ invest.
The longer you can delay the better as you can stack more in savings & investments
Good thing with the UK (one of the few benefits ๐) is that you pay no capital gains on primary residence (for now). So at least itโs another tax free vehicle to build equity (albeit solicitors fees on sale and purchase are a killer!)
