Very exiciting, i think its a great addition!!

Micron is also 5% of my Portfolio, i like it!

Good point, a good currency like the swiss frank is relatively stable. Look at all other coins, losing 90% of their value. This is just too much.

To be honest i dont understand blockchain, could very well be great technology usable for a lot of things. @Parsad Do you own any crypto?

I agree with Pabrai here: Crypto will vaporize into nothing. Crypto market was around a few trillion at its all time highs, not a huge part of global wealth but certainly an effect on markets. Bitcoin is worth nothing to me, not even 1$. What exactly is crypto? Three things it could be according to Aswath Damodaran: 1. Asset Its not an asset since it doesnt produce anything. 2. Collectible Collectible grow in value in inflation and are stable, look at a picasso painting, will go up in value with inflation long term, doesnt lose lots of the value, even during crisis. This is not true for bitcoin. 3. Currency Yes, Bitcoin is a currency. But currency do not have value, they have a price. A good currency is: Stable and maintains purchasing power+is usable. Crypto or bitcoin is nothing of those. It is not stable (stable coins excluded) and you cant use it (in the majority of cases). Quote Aswath Damodaran: What the heck are you paying 20k for!!!!!!

Why is Fairfax so much preferred over Markel here? Feel like Markel offers similiar attributes with even Buffett buying the stock lately... I own Markel too and wondered why i should buy Fairfax if i can buy BRK or Markel as a smaller top notch insurer.

Very mixed signals from Xi, supporting businesses and common prosperity/socialist reforms, lots of FUD

Sold my stake in Alibaba and shifted the remains into tencent and prosus equally. I think Tencent will be able to circumvent regulations better than Baba (regulation wise) and has more experience in foreign investments which makes it a bit more protected against political turmoil. Also has higher Cashflow and more attractive metrics than Baba.

Wow, China is a bloodbath right now!

I see it like that aswell.

What do you think will happen for chinese stocks after a taiwan invasion? Will the stock market be cut off as with russia? Even if we hold share in HK? I am thinking of leaving my china positions and buying some tsm If i loose the total value anyways if the invasion happens id rather hold tsm than alibaba currently...

New Position in ASML
