What we’re about
Welcome! We are an inclusive and international group of mostly private retail investors and a few seasoned trading professionals, all based in the heart of Lisbon. Our community encompasses a wide range of backgrounds and experience levels, from financial market veterans to complete beginners.
Note: The group is specifically intended for social chat about investing. No one is selling or promoting any financial product. No information shared in the group should be considered financial advice. Anyone trying to use the group for marketing purposes will first be asked to stop, and if they continue they will be banned.
Our group is primarily focused on traditional forms of investment, such as stocks, bonds, Lisbon's burgeoning real estate market, and foreign exchange. While cryptocurrencies are sometimes part of our discussions, please note there are other Lisbon-based meetups more focused on this area of speculation.
As a community, we aim to create an environment conducive to learning and sharing. Our conversations center around diverse trading and investing styles, critical updates in economic news, and insightful speculation on the trajectories of both the European and US economies.
Two quotes from investment guru himself, Warren Buffett summarise our general investment philosophy:
- Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing
and:
- Rule #1: Never lose money
- Rule #2: Never Forget #1
If you're new to investing or feel like you know very little, don't be daunted! We're here to help each other grow. We believe in fostering an environment where it's okay to ask questions, and where everyone, regardless of their experience level, can gain value from our collective insights. From evening meetings to our WhatsApp group, our goal is to ensure that you not only understand the basics but also develop the confidence to navigate the world of investing independently.
So, if you're curious about investing, are keen to learn from experienced traders, or just want to understand what the stock market is all about, come and join us.
Let's invest in the future together!
