£27.5k is the next goal. Always been a fan of 2.5 increments and keeping the goals bitesize. Keeps the motivation. Needs a little input from my side though.

@SmartMoneyLeon $MCD as well for £1.22. But you are right, it wont be in a decade

@unusual_whales The older I get, the less I’m surprised by politics.

Not because politicians change their positions.

But because the public can be persuaded that the new position was perfectly reasonable all along.

Elementary, perhaps.

@xgrowthpascal I’ve reached an unfortunate conclusion.

The algorithm appears less interested in whether a tweet is brilliant…

…and more interested in whether people start talking about it immediately.

A most curious case.

I don’t think you’re missing anything.

The irony is that most investors would probably outperform themselves by doing less and keeping it simple

The question is whether you’re trying to maximise returns… or maximise enjoyment of the process.

Those aren’t always the same thing.

The Sherlock strategy 🕵️📈🇬🇧

• Build positions in primarily in UK & US companies
• Shelter them in a Stocks & Shares ISA
• Reinvest every dividend
• Ignore the noise
• Repeat year after year

It sounds almost too simple. Some may say elementary

What’s the catch?

@DrunkDividends The amount isnt awful as long as its not gambling but 50 reputable companies that spread your risk isn’t a bad tactic

I asked dearest Claude what stock to pick for 2026:

Here is what I received

Buy Alphabet $GOOGL. It’s the strongest single stock pick for 2026 — AI growth, solid fundamentals, reasonable valuation, and even Buffett just bought in. No guarantees, but it’s the best bet among current analyst picks.

People tell me to “just buy an ETF.”

Others say to concentrate into your highest conviction stocks.

Meanwhile, I’ve built my own “Sherlock ETF” with 50+ holdings and the majority paying dividends.

Genius or complete insanity?

How many stocks do you own?
