Re: PP in Germany
I've registered that. But I spend my money in euros. I wouldn't buy long-term bonds or cash holdings in USD. I'm also adding currency risk to my portfolio in addition to interest rate risk. So, not an option for me. Global Stocks and gold offer sufficient risk.

Re: PP in Germany
I'm European. The risk or opportunity associated with the US dollar is more than adequately contained in Global Stocks. Over 70% is in North America. I don't need more. The price of gold is also traded in dollars. Gold price increases are currently only muted for euro investors. So why take more risk?

Re: PP in Germany
It's simply a matter of costs. The broker charges me a 1.5% savings plan fee for gold. A manual order costs half that. I'm also not willing to continue buying at any price, given the exorbitantly rising gold price. I buy every month, only to adjust things again in a few months through rebalancing. I...

Re: PP in Germany
Okay, that's a misunderstanding.
I'm still depositing €1,000 into the account. So the volume is still growing. I'm just no longer buying all asset classes every month, but only when the 15/40 range is hit. Then there's a rebalancing to 4 x 25.

Re: PP in Germany
The portfolio has reached the €40,000 mark. The savings plans have been suspended since November. From now on, buying and selling will only occur when the ranges are met.
It feels like gold is currently forming a flagpole.

Re: PP in Germany
Maybe later. The portfolio is so small that the last sale was only 20 grams of gold. In the future, there will definitely be a Phliharmonic or a Maple. It won't be long until then. The next step is to reach ten thousand euros per share and end the savings plan. From then on, only place orders when t...

Re: Do 30-Year Bonds Still Belong in a Permanent Portfolio? 🙀
My choice for long-term bonds is an ETF on the EUROGOV® Germany 10+. The average remaining term is currently 18.9 years. The ISIN is DE000ETFL219. This year, too, despite all the uncertainty caused by politics and the decline of the US dollar for European investors in the eurozone, the portfolio is ...

Re: 💸 Is Rebalancing the Permanent Portfolio Costing You More Than You Think? 🤔
I've been investing €1,000 a month in the PP since January 1, 2023. So far, none of the four components has reached the 15/35 range. Gold was close to it once in April, but never reached it. If the range is reached, I could sell gold tax-free, as the holding period of more than one year was met. How...

Re: Balancing Gains and Losses Every Year to Eliminate Capital Gains Tax in the Long Run
This could work if you find out beforehand what amount you need for the offsetting. Then you sell the position that is in the red in the amount required to generate losses of a sufficient amount. Then you sell the position with the profit and the tax result is zero. Assuming you have a position that...
