I’ve been running my Self-Invested Personal Pension (SIPP) for six years now. Over that time, I’ve ridden out Covid-era losses, enjoyed a sharp rebound in 2022 as my energy stocks surged, and learned a lot about volatility along the way.
But 2025 has been my strongest year by a wide margin, with several long-term conviction holdings finally delivering in a big way. Here’s how I generated a 66.6% return – and how I’m positioning my SIPP for 2026.
