Trade the Look
The diary’s book, investable
Closelooknet writes an investment diary. The wikifolio “Closelooknet” is where that diary’s tactical book becomes something you can actually hold — as a certificate, through your own broker. This page describes the vehicle; it is not a recommendation to buy it.
How this works — who you deal with
The wikifolio “Closelooknet” is managed personally by Thomas Look — as an individual, not by a company. Thomas Look is managing partner of Closelook Venture GmbH, the operator of closelook.net; the wikifolio is a personal engagement, not a company product. What investors buy is a certificate issued by Lang & Schwarz — the issuer and your contractual partner is Lang & Schwarz AG, not Thomas Look and not Closelook Venture GmbH. Buying, selling and custody happen through your broker and wikifolio.com — never on this site.
Das wikifolio „Closelooknet“ wird von Thomas Look persönlich verwaltet — als Privatperson, nicht durch ein Unternehmen. Thomas Look ist Managing Partner der Closelook Venture GmbH, der Betreiberin von closelook.net; das wikifolio ist ein persönliches Engagement, kein Unternehmensprodukt. Anleger erwerben ein von der Lang & Schwarz AG emittiertes Zertifikat — Emittentin und Vertragspartnerin ist die Lang & Schwarz AG, nicht Thomas Look und nicht die Closelook Venture GmbH. Kauf, Verkauf und Verwahrung erfolgen über Ihre Bank bzw. wikifolio.com.
The strategy
Around ten positions: a base of broad ETFs carrying market exposure, with a concentrated set of story stocks on top — the names this diary writes about, made investable. The current tilt is the K3-winners book: Advantest, SK Hynix, TSMC and BESI on the physical layer of the AI build-out, alongside Nokia and DigitalOcean, over a base of All-World ex-US, Nasdaq-100 and S&P Top-20 ETFs. Positions are bought, held and closed — no leverage, no derivatives. Changes are visible on wikifolio in real time.
What the wrapper does
When positions inside the wikifolio change — a stock is bought, sold or closed — the certificate itself stays untouched. For the holder, portfolio changes inside the wikifolio are not taxable events; tax considerations arise only when the certificate itself is sold. That is the structural difference to running a brokerage account that mirrors a strategy trade by trade. This describes the product structure, not tax advice — tax treatment depends on individual circumstances.
The rules of the vehicle
The wikifolio invests in stocks and ETFs from wikifolio’s eligible universe — a broad but limited pool. There is no options overlay, no derivatives, no short positions: positions are bought, held and closed. Fee: 10% performance fee with high watermark, no entry fee. The strategy is run under those constraints, with the same discipline the diary applies everywhere else.

An investment diary, not investment advice. Neither Thomas Look nor Closelook Venture GmbH (operator of closelook.net) is a licensed investment adviser; nothing on this page is a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any security or certificate. Performance figures, where shown, are past values and no indicator of future results. The certificate is a bearer bond of Lang & Schwarz AG and carries issuer risk.
