Jannis Klaus

Just before graduating from high school six years ago, I did my first trade ever. I bought one bitcoin with money I earned from working as a newspaper deliverer in my hometown Hanover in Germany. From there on, motivated by the rapid value growth of my first investment, I started to get really interested in the developments of financial markets around the world. I started to diversify my assets, bought stocks from different branches and countries around the world, while always trying to be one step ahead of the current market situation. In those six years I closely monitored articles in newspapers, business magazines, private blogs about trading and followed several discussions and threads around the question of the best way of investing ones money. The most important thing I learned in this time, is that the stock market often does not follow what experts like investors, journalists and professional traders expect from it - at least in the short term. That is why my approach to trading is different to others - I value long term growth and security of assets over the greed of short-term wins associated with high risks. So much about my approach to trading, now a little bit about my current situation. I'm doing a double major in Business Administration and Economics at one of the most renowned universities in Europe while working as a data analyst for a big e-commerce company. I'm having several stock portfolios at different brokers and see trading as my biggest passion. When I'm not working or studying I closely follow worldwide news, read earning reports and research a lot about different companies I see a potential investment in. I do not believe in chart analysis and invest in companies whose business model is sustainable in a long term perspective. Therefor I take a close look at the products offered, the pricing model in place, the management and of course - as an Economics student a must - the bare numbers. mehr anzeigen
