My dad ran a succesful business and sold it when he was 40. The past few years he's been investing his money in a brokers account, mainly because he wanted his money to make himself money, and because he enjoyed following the markets and reading about markets.
However as of now he has invested around € 220.000 in original value and has - as of today - a value of € 155.000 remaining. I thought he was doing fine because he told me he sold stocks that were making him a profit and kept the ones that were doing bad, but almost his whole investment portfolio is in the red. I've attached a picture so that you can see what he is holding.
I would really love some advice here because it hurts me to see the money he worked so hard for disappearing. He doesn't really seem super stressed right now (he has a couple of RE properties and a private bank investment) which is nice I guess.
