End Of March Update I wanted to look at the portfolio a little differently while doing this update. The overall asset allocation mix is still about the same as February, so the update on the website is valid if you missed that one: https://www.globalmarkie.com/investusmaximus-february-portfolio-update/ What I’ve done with the graphic […]
Update for Copiers. Afternoon all. We are almost done with February and the month currently sits at +11.44%. It’s been a very strong month with the epicenter stocks finally making some strong moves as the UK arrived at the 22nd February and the unveiling of the lockdown exit plan and […]
Morning all. Interesting chart from Bloomberg looking at the performance of $GOLD and $BTC I’ve added the Magenta lines to show the previous period where Gold outperformed Bitcoin and how it was Gold that consolidated while Bitcoin then played catch-up.

This past week has not been kind to Gold or any of the other precious metals. At a time of distressed global markets, many have fled to Gold for it’s reputation as a good ‘safe haven’ during times of trouble. For anyone seeking refuge in the warming light of Gold […]
Evening all. Yesterday the markets displayed some strange behaviour with the ‘Triple Whammy’ I wrote about last night and that certainly ended up being a portend for a bad day, with the Dow having its worst day since the 1987 flash crash. See: https://www.cnbc.com/2020/03/11/futures-are-steady-wednesday-night-after-dow-closes-in-bear-market-traders-await-trump.html I usually use the SP500 for […]
