Ein Anlageplan für unruhige Zeiten

Investors should consider allocating their portfolios in turbulent times, especially when mainstream assets are causing anxiety. Political turmoil in France, escalating situations in Iran and its energy markets, and the surge in AI infrastructure investments, like Meta's case, present opportunities for strategic planning.

Experts offer conflicting opinions on inflation, with some predicting a deflationary trend due to AI-driven innovation. Despite this uncertainty, the author believes that the current stock market rally will not end, but a financial crisis could arise in the medium term, potentially caused by overinvestment in AI infrastructure or state bond turbulence.

To manage exposure to AI, the author suggests using ETFs with equal weight, like Nvidia, and value-oriented funds. Increasing the cash portion of the portfolio and investing up to 10% in gold, including mining stocks and silver, is recommended. Bitcoin's performance potential is also considered favorable, with annual returns of 15% or more.

The author advises against investing in popular themes such as space exploration and quantum computing due to high valuations and late-stage availability to investors. However, digitalization of finance, including blockchain projects like Aave, Ether, Near, Solana, and Uniswap, presents a promising opportunity, potentially multiplying in value over ten years.

Lastly, the author encourages looking into unpopular stocks during turbulent times, such as the Indonesian stock market, which frequently reaches new lows. As Chancellor Friedrich Merz advocates for private pension reform, the author acknowledges its potential to initiate a financial revolution, particularly during periods of stock market instability.
