    Thanks Adam, always good to get some reassurance! I should look back at mine over 12 months or something and see what the overall chart looks like.

    Might survive a few more weeks without resorting to value pasta and cheap ketchup πŸ˜†

      I'm pretty sure most of us are here for the long haul, fundamental's are good for what we're invested in, have faith/patience and eventually we can all celebrate ✌

        Echo the comments thus far. We're investing, not trading. Worse storms have been weathered and forgotten about.

          We believe we are in the very early stages of a technology/growth revolution. And we only have to be half right. There is no point looking too far out beyond ones nose (10 years) because it just becomes guess work. However the investment in this space is not going to slow down-so says every tech leader and the manufacturers, TSMC, AVGO, MU, META et al. When management at Nvidia say(last week) that they believe for them alone, the health and drug segment(one segment) looks like $100B in revenue for them-they have strong belief based on adoption and progress in this space. The beauty is, we don't have to agree entirely to justify investing in them because today they are the fastest growing company on the planet and have a PE the same as Coke KO. If that doesn't put 'valuation' into perspective,im not sure anything will.

              Looking healthier today, but it's still going to be a roller coaster of a ride.

              Only this morning I said to a colleague that as long as the businesses aren't damaged by what's going on, they will go back up when things settle down.

                  That is correct Ron. Markets always oscillate -The focus in your graphic is the 'Increase'. DT doesn't determine the prospects of these holdings in the long term.

                      Hi Steve-it was a solid day yesterday. +3.56%/2.46%/0.98% (Tech/IML/Equity). GTC is on deck next week. And as has been mentioned before, this is not a structural move, it's based on fear(unknown). The holdings are sound and coupled with the new additions, will in particular, make the growth portfolio's just how I would want them.

                        TSMC foundries require huge parcels of land. They had planned on buying a golf course, in fact they have bought it. One snag. the members are refusing to leave. Even offers of paying each golf club member USD 24,000 to walk away couldn't persuade them and there appears to be an impasse (code for 'we want 50k each!) . Officials now say, our takeover of the property will be postponed. πŸ™‚

                        That was for Renmure who requested some more humour.

                                The Wall Street Journal is claiming that the Trump administration won't impose tariffs on Taiwan Semiconductors-given the scale of committed US investment. It doesn't mean they're correct-even they like a bit of fake news however I've always thought it would be resolved based on the evidence, being massive new investment and more recently Jensen Huang also stated that he didn't think the impact would be anything more than minor (whatever the outcome is). He would know more than most.

                                      Some relevant news over the weekend:

                                      1. Gigabyte Technology, a mid size Taiwan server maker said they are sold for AI server through all of 2025 and mid way into 2026. They have committed to expand their manufacturing capacity in Brazil while its Germany, US and Malaysia plants will open later this year.

                                      2. TSMC said it will finish all planned fabrication plants as its expansion plans are unchanged.

                                      3. Foxconn just reported record revenue due to 'strong pull for AI related products. Foxconn expects momentum to continue'

                                      4. Taiwan President William Lai has offered the U.S zero tariffs as a basis for opening talks. Adding he will remove all barriers and increase investment in the U.S.

                                      5. Trump stated on Sunday that he is open to talks with China but said China needs to address their surplus
