The last week of February I was on a skiing trip with the family. Normally, this is my depositing week, but I totally forgot about this during the trip, so this month I didn’t really invest anything manually. This means my deposits are between €200-400 lower than normal. Sometimes making memories is more important than investing and this will level out in March, so we are all good moving forward.
I did hit the 25k milestone without the regular deposits, so that is really great news! Next up, 50k!
Capital Growth Portfolio
The Saxo portfolio is up 1.46%. Starting this month, I switched to a heavier stock allocation with this portfolio. I’m comfortable with the big market swings we have seen over the last two years, so I’m opting for a more offensive strategy, especially since I’m still at the beginning of my investing journey. This will be my fourth year!
Portfolio value: €6766.72
Deposits: €100
Growth/decline: €97.31
Retirement Fund Portfolio
The retirement fund was up 2.66% in February. As mentioned above, we see the stock-heavy (more offensive) approach is performing a lot better at the moment than bonds and other stuff.
Portfolio value: €3151.97
Deposits: €100
Growth/decline: €81.72

P2P Lending Portfolio
Mintos
Steady growth, as always, 0.56% this month. The passive income is always around €5.
Still paused any further deposits. Once I reach €1000 on this platform and €500 on EstateGuru, I will diversify platforms. The last 2 years have been nice on Mintos.

Corekees
Another month, another tree. It would be nice if there will be another project added with a shorter project duration.
Portfolio value: €112.5
Deposits: €22.50
Crypto Portfolio
February has been another nice month, portfolio is up 8.55%.
The rest of the assets are still growing slowly because of the interest. Swissborg is giving me a 4.5% yield on my bitcoin and 7.75% on my USDC.
I also want to remind everyone how important it is to keep most of your crypto off the exchanges you are trading on. I keep mine on a Ledger.

Ethereum value: 1.04744777 (+3.53%)

Ideas for March
In the coming months, it is time to add some to the cash position and invest a little more in crypto if the crypto portfolio doesn’t turn around. This will be needed to keep the 20% allocation.
