Positions

This portfolio is basically a five-fund costume party where everything claims to be diversified and smart, but most guests are wearing the same outfit. Two big broad-market funds eat 60% of the weight, then three factor funds are sprinkled on top like “quant seasoning.” The result is less some intricate strategy and more “ACWI with personality issues.” It looks balanced at first glance, but the overlaps and factor tilts mean a lot of the risk is quietly marching in the same direction. Structurally it’s coherent enough, but it feels like someone couldn’t choose between “just own the world” and “be clever,” so they tried to do both at once.

Growth Info

Historically, this thing has absolutely flown: turning €1,000 into €1,700 in under three years with a 23.8% CAGR is not shy. It beat both the US and global markets by about 4 percentage points a year, which is the performance equivalent of showing off at the family reunion. Max drawdown of -19% is spicy but not catastrophic, especially given the return. Just remember: this period was extremely friendly to mega-cap tech and factor tourists who happened to be in the right place. Past data is like a highlight reel, not a contract; it looks great, but it’s also cherry-picked by time.

Projection Info

The Monte Carlo projection basically says, “Calm down, those 24% annual returns aren’t sticking around.” Simulations spit out a median of about €2,868 after 15 years from €1,000, which is solid but nowhere near the recent rocket ride. Monte Carlo just runs thousands of alternate futures using historical-style volatility and return patterns; it’s like weather forecasting with dice. The likely range is wide — roughly €1,100 to €7,800 — which tells you uncertainty is doing most of the talking. The average annualized 8.2% across simulations is normal-good, not leaderboard-good. Translation: history has been a party, the future looks more like a regular workday.

Asset classes Info

  • Stocks
    100%

Asset-class “diversification” here is simple: 100% stocks, 0% anything else. Apparently bonds, cash, and other asset classes didn’t even get a LinkedIn invite. For a portfolio labeled “Balanced” with a 4/7 risk score, it’s behaving like someone who clicks “I have read the terms and conditions” without even scrolling. Equities-only means when markets are up, everything’s fun; when they’re down, there’s nowhere to hide. Asset classes are the broad safety nets — mixing them usually smooths the ride. This one decided the safety net was optional, so volatility will be taken straight, no chaser.

Sectors Info

  • Technology
    29%
  • Financials
    18%
  • Industrials
    11%
  • Consumer Discretionary
    8%
  • Health Care

    5%
  • Basic Materials
    5%
  • Consumer Staples
    4%
  • Utilities
    3%
  • Real Estate
    2%

Sector-wise, this “value” flavored mix still has a 29% tilt toward technology, which is hilarious. It’s like saying you’re on a diet while holding a family-sized pizza. Financials at 18% and industrials at 11% add some old-economy weight, but the tech chunk is still steering the emotional rollercoaster. When tech booms, this portfolio will look like pure genius; when it sulks, everything else is mostly there for moral support. Sector exposure matters because crashes rarely distribute pain evenly — being this tech-heavy means the portfolio has chosen its favorite drama channel and turned the volume up.

Regions Info

  • North America
    49%
  • Europe Developed
    23%
  • Asia Developed
    10%
  • Japan
    7%
  • Asia Emerging

  • Latin America
    2%
  • Africa/Middle East
    1%
  • Europe Emerging
    1%
  • Australasia
    1%

Geographically, this thing is “global” but also very “US and friends.” About 49% sits in North America, with Europe at 23% and the rest of the world sharing leftovers. At least emerging markets exist here and aren’t just a rounding error, which is better than many so-called global portfolios. Still, the home base is clearly developed markets, especially the US, so the vibe is more “global tourist” than “truly global citizen.” Geographic spread matters because different regions take turns being the hero or the villain. This setup basically bets that the current lead actors keep their roles.

Market capitalization Info

  • Large-cap
    42%
  • Mega-cap
    42%
  • Mid-cap
    15%

On market cap, this portfolio is worshipping at the altar of the giants: 42% mega-cap, 42% large-cap, and a token 15% mid-cap so it can claim it knows what smaller companies are. There’s effectively no meaningful small-cap presence, which is where a lot of long-run growth and volatility premium tends to hide. This is a “don’t rock the boat” size profile: very benchmarky, very index-conformist, despite all the factor branding. In practice, that means the portfolio mostly dances to the same tune as the global behemoths — what happens to the top names is basically what happens to everything.

The look-through holdings scream one thing: this portfolio says “value” on the label but is hooked on the usual mega-cap tech suspects. NVIDIA, Apple, TSMC, Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet — it’s the standard poster wall. The overlap is coming through broad funds and factors that still can’t quit big tech. With only top-10 ETF holdings visible, real duplication is almost certainly worse than shown. Hidden concentration means the portfolio is less diversified than it pretends; multiple funds are essentially reordering the same chips on the same plate and calling it a tasting menu.

Risk contribution is refreshingly honest: each holding roughly pulls its weight in causing drama. The top three funds make up 75% of total risk, almost exactly matching their combined weight. No secret 5% gremlin blowing up volatility in the background. That said, the concentration of risk in just a few broad funds means the portfolio’s fate is largely in their hands; the smaller factor slices aren’t doing much more than gently nudging behavior. Risk contribution is basically asking, “Who’s actually shaking the portfolio?” Here, the answer is: the big three, front and center, no surprises, no hidden divas.

    High correlation

The correlation note is borderline comedy: the S&P 500 ETF and the global ACWI ETF move almost identically. Shocking news — owning the world index and then separately owning the US chunk of that world does not create profound diversification. This is like buying a combo meal and then a separate order of fries. High correlation means when one falls, the other usually faceplants right next to it, which is not great when you think you’ve diversified away risk. The portfolio isn’t broken because of this, but it is paying extra complexity for what’s basically the same ride twice.

Risk vs. return

This chart shows the Efficient Frontier, calculated using your current assets with different allocation combinations. It highlights the best balance between risk and return based on historical data. "Efficient" portfolios maximize returns for a given risk or minimize risk for a given return. Portfolios below the curve are less efficient. This is informational and not a recommendation to buy or sell any assets.

On the efficient frontier, this thing is actually behaving itself. The current portfolio is on or very near the frontier, with a Sharpe ratio of 1.38, sandwiched between a punchier optimal mix at 1.81 and a smoother minimum-variance option at 1.52. Efficient frontier just means “best possible trade-offs using the stuff you already own.” Being near it says the weights aren’t randomly chaotic; they’re reasonably aligned with the risk taken. So despite the tech addiction and factor muddle, the math says the trade-off isn’t dumb. Annoyingly competent, even — though there’s still clear room for a sharper risk-return balance with the same ingredients.

Ongoing product costs Info

  • iShares Edge MSCI EM Value Factor UCITS ETF USD (Acc) USD 0.40%
  • iShares Edge MSCI Europe Momentum Factor UCITS ETF EUR (Acc) 0.25%
  • iShares Edge MSCI World Value Factor UCITS ETF USD (Acc) EUR 0.30%
  • SSgA SPDR ETFs Europe I Public Limited Company - SPDR MSCI ACWI UCITS ETF 0.45%
  • Weighted costs total (per year) 0.31%

Costs land at a blended TER of 0.31%, which is not offensive but definitely not bargain-bin either. The broad-market ETFs are a bit pricey compared to the cheapest options out there, and some of the factor funds charge a premium for their “smart beta” halo. It’s like paying for craft coffee when you’re mostly getting decent filter brew. Over time, those extra basis points quietly skim performance, especially when returns normalize away from recent fireworks. Nothing here is daylight robbery, but this isn’t the leanest implementation of such a plain-vanilla global equity idea.
