Published by Evan Louise Madriรฑan on

๐Ÿ“ˆ Itโ€™s that time of the month again, and as promised, here is my monthly contribution to the public Zero-to-Hero Portfolio. Drawing inspiration from my book, Zero to Heroโ€”The Rookie Investorโ€™s Manifesto, here’s an update on my investment journey and the latest market news.

๐Ÿš˜ Tesla (Ticker Symbol: TSLA), making up 0.58% of my Zero-to-Hero Portfolio through the FTSE Global All Cap Index Fund, has seen a remarkable 50% rise in its share price over the past month. This surge is attributed to their better-than-expected delivery numbers for the second quarter of 2024. They reported 443,956 deliveries, surpassing analysts’ expectations of 439,302. Of these, Model 3/Y deliveries accounted for 422,405, while other models contributed 21,551 deliveries .

Across the Atlantic, European stocks closed lower on Tuesday as investors weighed the political uncertainty in France following Sundayโ€™s election. With no party winning a majority, France faces a hung parliament. This means that parties will need to work togetherโ€”either informally or through coalitionsโ€”to achieve any legislative progress, an outcome that remains uncertain.
