Mitch - Investor £15k

Good morning everyone! This is a new account documenting my Investment Journey. I’m 28 and a homeowner and feel like it is now the right time to start committing fully to investing. Current Portfolio value stands at £15.4k with PADI at £532. Follow me on my journey! #Investing

What’s everyone buying now then? Might as well get it whilst it’s on offer…

@flapitheking Not really mate, but it would be something that I may look at later down the line

@MitchInvest yeah let’s do it man! you dabble in CFD trading?

First 24h on here have been a blast! Loving connecting with you guys and sharing my journey with you all! Thank you to everyone who has followed, I’m super grateful for it! Drop me a follow if you’d like to follow my journey!

Woah a bit of destabilisation at the end of the day of the European markets. Currently 1.8% down in the last 24h. Lots of red in the asset allocation. Have we finally reached the top? How has everyone’s portfolio got on today?

Everyone wants to buy the SpaceX IPO on day one. History says wait. Research consistently shows IPOs perform well in their first few days then underperform for up to three years afterwards. The pattern with mega IPOs is brutal: A Reuters analysis of the 15 largest IPOs in history showed that beyond the first day pop the first year's performance for most was a major flop. IPOs underperform the market by an average of 2-3% per year. Four out of five IPOs underperform a small cap index. The hype is real. The returns often aren't. Then there's the lock up period. 90-180 days after IPO insiders can't sell. The moment that expires? Prices can move violently as early investors cash out. Let the hype die. Let the lock up expire. Buy the dip that often follows. The best entry into a great company is rarely day one.

@HeyZinnia Nice! Keep building!

Feels amazing being so close to my first goal of £1,000 invested 📈 Aiming for £3000 by the end of the year ☺️ Slow and steady in #VWRP & #EQQB 📈

Off the financial topic Who is everyone’s picks for the World Cup? Personally, I think Portugal have a great chance of winning it, great squad and maybe it is finally CR7s year. Obviously, would love England to win it, think we will crash out at the 1/4 final. #FIFAWC2026

@TeslaAlien I do like the option to be able to take dividends, I use Trading212 so currently reinvest any dividends immediately. I do believe that the US Market will out perform the rest.

@MitchInvest What do you do with the dividends? if you just reinvest, may as well just be on the accumulation versions. Why are you overweight US also? are you expecting US outperformance over the next few decades?

Current projection for the month ahead is that I will be investing £1800 a month! Around £620 of that will be going into £VUSA and £VWRL. The rest will be going into separate pies including Oil and Banks Should I invest more into my ETFs? How much do you invest currently?

@readerinvests Nice to meet you mate!

🚨✈️ José Mourinho, in Madrid today ahead of his presentation as new Real Madrid head coach on a three year deal.

@TeslaAlien Have always been thinking to switching over to the accumulation side of these ETFs

@MitchInvest I don't get why people do VUSA and VWRL. Makes no sense when VWRL is like 62% US market anyway. You are just significantly overweight US doing this. I also don't understand why in your 20's you'd be buying the distribution ETF over the accumulation 🤷‍♂️

@alecscrypto1 👏👏👏

Chest and triceps today 💪 Healthy mind, healthy wallet is what they say right? Anyway ive always taken the gym seriously. Its got me through the hardest times mentally and rewarded me physically and mentally in the long run.

Let’s talk about $O Always been a great admirer of this stock, low volatility and a steady reliable dividend income. Current Dividend Yield - 5.4% However, as a UK Investor the thing that puts me off is the withholding tax. Do you have $O in your portfolio? If so, why?

@brandon_Invests Yeah mate, once you start with a running club you’ll be more motivated and there is also the accountability aspect as well

@MitchInvest That’s cool, I have a couple locally maybe I should join to actually make it a little more motivating

Pull day at gym for me today! Will run tonight also 🏃 Health is wealth!

@skinttorich Really like the look of the stock mate, just recently secured an order from All.Space. Hopefully more to come 📈🤞

@MitchInvest What’s made you buy this stock?

Just Joined the $SIVE club! 30 shares, will top up with more throughout the coming weeks!

@brandon_Invests 😂😂 what really helps though is that I’m part of a social running club. Just chat on the way round and you kind of forget that you are running 😂😂

@MitchInvest Wow 😂 good going!

@brandon_Invests Tonight I’ll probably do 10k+, at the weekend I did 16 miles on Saturday and 8 miles on Sunday. Coming off the back of a marathon in April and wanted to keep my running fitness up

@MitchInvest Good on you pal! How long do you run on average? 🏃‍♂️

@pathtofreedom46 Cheers mate!

@MitchInvest I’ll be on pull day later 👊 have a good one mate!
