- A retail investor seeks stock recommendations for long-term investing, having started with ETFs and recently adding Visa. The post highlights the challenges faced by novice investors in navigating the stock market and the desire for diversification. Limited US market influence as it reflects individual investment decisions.
Hi everyone,
I started investing in ETF's (IWDA and EMIM) in 2023, one of the best decisions I've made that year. But it's boring. So I bought my first individual stock this month: VISA. Stocks are a whole new world for me. I know some basics, like "ASML is a good buy" or "don't focus too much on the USD - EUR exchange rate" but the more I try to research, the more like a jungle it feels.
What do you recommend as my next buy(s)? I invest around € 500 in stocks/ ETF's every month with the goal of buying and holding. Making some short term profits and cashing in once in a while would be nice, but not my main objective.
Remember I'm just a girl with little knowledge about the stock market🎀
