Daily Stock Market Report (Fri 28 Feb 2025) - Portfolio, MEGP, MGAM, RMV, FKE, OBD, SAG/RCDO
Happy Friday everyone, I hope your portfolio has done well in this results-heavy week.
Before getting into today's news, I thought it would be fun to show you my personal portfolio. This isn't meant to be a model portfolio and of course it's not a recommendation. It's simply what I've ended up with after a long chain of decisions. It also reflects my bias towards inertia when it comes to investing.

In truth, I found this portfolio somewhat frustrating for a while, as my largest holding made no progress in share price terms for four years (roughly from 2020 to 2024).
That investment has also been a source of enormous sadness, as the co-founder and CEO, whom I had spoken to on a number of occasions, tragically died young.
Looking forward, I know that this portfolio needs to be improved and I do intend get more new ideas into it over time, especially from my watchlist and companies I've been GREEN...
