    I feel like half the posts on the sub are people asking for broker advice. Obviously without doing any research since the options in EU are limited and speak for themselves. Can we either remove these low effort posts or refer to a Q&A section? Edit: well this blew up. I agree that there...

    Trading 212 raises € interest to 4% paid daily

    What do you guys think? Park the money at 4% while it lasts and then move it to ETFs, or always DCA, no matter what? Everyone I know believes that market crash is imminent and don’t believe in “soft landing”, especially in Europe. Americans seem more optimistic. Still, 4% is a lot...
