My Exact Investing Strategy for 2026 (ACTUAL PERCENTAGES)

Lock Stock Finance

The speaker shares their diversified investment strategy for 2026, allocating 20% to global ETFs, 12.5% to S&P 500, and smaller percentages to emerging technologies like quantum computing, biotech, and space technology. They emphasize consistent monthly investing using the 50/30/20 rule and maintaining an emergency fund.

Summary

The speaker begins by referencing their successful space stock prediction from February that doubled investor returns, then outlines their investment approach for navigating what they see as global financial uncertainty. Their general strategy follows the 50/30/20 rule (necessities/lifestyle/investing) with consistent monthly investments regardless of market conditions, plus a six-month emergency fund for both security and opportunistic investing during market dips. Their portfolio is heavily diversified across ETFs and index funds, with the largest allocation being 20% in global all-cap ETFs for maximum worldwide diversification. They've reduced US exposure to 12.5% in S&P 500 due to concerns about Trump's presidency, dollar weakness, and an AI bubble. Traditional diversification includes 10% each in precious metals (gold/silver), Asia-Pacific markets, and dividend-paying companies, plus 7.5% in REITs, 5% each in bonds and emerging markets. The 'future sectors' portion allocates 2.5% each to quantum computing, biotech, defense, space technology, copper, lithium/battery tech, and Bitcoin. They justify these emerging technology bets based on rapid advancement potential, geopolitical trends favoring defense spending, and the critical nature of certain materials for future technologies. The speaker emphasizes that while their portfolio is complex, investors could achieve similar diversification with just one or two broad index funds.
