This post was originally published in September 2020. The core logic of garage box investing still holds, but a lot has changed since then: registration duties, the EV revolution, mobility policy, and the interest rate environment all look different in 2026. I’ve rewritten this from scratch using current, sourced data.
At the end of my robo investing update, I teased this post. Robo advisors automate the boring part, but AI supposedly goes further: it picks, it times, it trades for you.

*Looks at last portfolio report, sees Q4 2021* Oops, a lot has changed since then... The last time I published a proper portfolio update, we were still talking about Covid, I was still an employee, the renovation hadn't started, and my daughter was a few months old. That was late 2021. It is now June 2026.
