qldfrog weekly Skate inspired system

[divs4ever]

well as much as i was pleasantly surprised by trump win, this did not help my positions: heavy gold and silver and minerals:
down 0.6% on the week back to September level whereas the asx is enjoying the SP rises of FMG, RIO and BHP so excited by the prospect of China tariffs (note WTF)
Overall an ASX index would have been much better: XJT rising with a 13% gain in the last 11 months while my setup is up a miserly 7%.
Good figure but not in perspective of a pure index etf

the gold dip should have been half-expected , Trump being elected will mean less life-lines to ungrateful corporations ( like Boeing )

sadly the dip was not quite deep enough to tempt extra buying ( by myself )

not better this week: super down 0.7% with PMs going down, and not that good for the ASX shares I own...well wait and see.

I wonder if I should carry that thread..hopefully will be able to get back in systematic trading now that I am back in Oz, and put property back in order

a good week for the super as for the market: xjt up 1.5% on the week vs my whole super 1% but market still beats me;
on the last 11 months nearly a year, XJT is up 15.4% whereas my own super mix is up 7.4%
Beaten but that is after some taxes (TD, dividends, and any share sales) and with a bigger side on cash PM...
Not sure if I should have been more greedy..easy to say after the facts..

I stopped posting as the prospect of going back to systemic trading are getting remote, but I should probably keep presenting my super journal:
Amalgamated super reached an ATH yesterday with a return since 20/12/2023 of 8.5 percent after fees, super costs and taxes;
on the same period the XJT managed an increase of 14.11 % so the super is under performing

Next week will reach the 1 year invested.

Some musing:
I have to wait till tomorrow to get the latest updated super values and end of US session to get the overall investment balance;
@Sean K 's graph inspired me to check my overall investment category split (super plus other investments.
Tonight:
Cryptos 2% of investments (PPOR excluded)
7% for physical gold silver
=> 10% direct Gold/silver/crypto
52% cash and TD
39% shares and ETFs

Note: Shares and ETFs do include substantial paper gold/silver ETFs as well as BILL ETF and other cash/bonds proxies roughly extra 10%
so overall cash not far from 60% which is pretty heavy.
USD exposure is around 10% as well thru USD accounts/US portfolio
More as a way for me to do a checkup at the EOY

A small aside
Maybe due to demand. But strangely enough, for the last 2 days which coincides with the minicrash and last night action.

And entering an order on Bell direct yesterday was rejected twice before being accepted..money was there, price was right.
For retail, as soon as there is some unusual market action, the smooth market trading tends to disappear.

Super progress so far: not a good week and the rebound of PM is not reflected yet as this is Australia based only

Overall my super return on a full calendar year:+6.89% vs XJT of 10.97%;
Super is after brokerage , fees and taxes
And to add further comparison, on the last year , the XJO was up 7.5%
