Stocks are rising today, is this all heavily influenced by NVIDIA earnings report today?

Is it NVIDIA earnings going out today?

I am looking to invest in a semiconductor ETF. Currently my investments are 100% VWRP, but looking to do a split of 90% VWRP 10% Semiconductors.

I believe SEMI is more diversified than SMGB? - What are you guys invested in, and why?

Hi everyone,

What are your guys takes on investing on the NASDAQ vs Semiconductor ETFs. For reference, my portfolio at the moment is 100% VWRP. Looking for a bit more high-risk, high-reward options, which will probably look as a split of 90% VWRP 10% of (x).

Would you do NASDAQ or semiconductors and why?

I'm in the UK, looking to invest in a semiconductor ETF. Which one would you recommend?

When I first started investing I put everything on VWRP as I didn't have much knowledge about the market. I am considering investing in SMGB. Will likely do a 90% 10% split. Does anyone know if I am able to put all my VWRP shares within a pie with SMGB.

Or will I have to create a new pie for the split? Thanks

Hey, I am planning to invest in semiconductors, as I don't have much knowledge about it, my plan was to do it through ETFs. I can see theres the iShares Global Semiconductor but has quite a high expense ratio (0.35), comparing it to Vanguard ETFs that I own.

SMGB (VanEck) is also semiconductors, but I can't see the expense ration on trading212. Does anybody know more about it?

Any suggestions welcomed. At the moment I have all my investments on VWRP.

Edit: what split between VWRP and SemiConductors ETF would you reccomend?

Before this my tiktok's were getting ~700 views. With one of them reaching 10k (a carrousel). Not sure why this happened, but ever since the past 4 days, the last 4 tiktoks have gotten 0 views, with no major changes happening.

Considering it's at ATH & driven by Trump's pause on 'project freedom'?

Edit: Done now! Thanks!

On the previous tax year (25/26), I put down around 10k on a Fixed Rate 1 Year Cash ISA on 3.8% AER (HSBC).

I am thinking of transferring that ISA into my S&S ISA (which i've invested 7k/20k so far). As far as I know, if I transfer the ISA correctly, the 10k will not add to my 26/27 year allowance as it was from the last tax year.

I think this could be a good idea considering the HSBC one is only paying me 3.8% AER which is the same amount I'd get with T212 uninvested cash, and I would also have the opportunity to buy a market dip or DCA.

I've researched and the penalty of withdrawing the HSBC ISA is lower of the interest earned on your account, or a maximum of 90 days’ interest. (id have to pay 3 month interest, but still think its worth it)?

Open discussion, would like to hear thoughts on what y'all think!

Hey, I've set the 1.5% cashback investing option in my account. Only got like a fiver at the moment, however I was wondering if there was a specific amount I needed to reach before it starts investing itself. For reference, I have it feeding into VWRP. I think i've read something about needing at least £1 per stock?

Can i technically put lets say, 1k on NVIDIA, on a S&S ISA, then retrieve it at 1.2k (200 profit), and then put the 1k back without using any extra ISA allowance since Trading212 is flexible?

In the case they do, I am assuming it is because that's when people get paid (at least EU). In that case, is it worth setting my standing order a few days later (I know its meaningless long-term but as I am new to investing the feeling of short-term extremely small loss is still present lol).
