I might have to do that because I do not have enough cash for a big portfolio. Good point. Thank you!

Not more than 10 stocks in one's portfolio. 10 stocks maximum should provide enough diversification already. The different selected stocks must belong to different sectors of businesses (to gain sufficient diversification). Within the different stocks in one's portfolio, most capital is invested in the company that is most promising among the lot and least capital invested in the company that is least promising among the lot. All the selected stocks must belong to only the most established and outstanding companies with excellent track record (more than 10 years) within each sector of businesses. One can also include exchange traded funds (ETFs) that are diversified investment counters in his portfolio. The above suggested portfolio is for an investor without deep knowledge in evaluating businesses. Such investors receive protection of capital by a diversified portfolio. However, if an investor can evaluate businesses very thoroughly, he may invest in only a few selected businesses (less than 5 stocks) that are evaluated to be the most outstanding among the many public listed businesses out there. This is called focus investing (investing heavily in only less than 5 stocks). To do so, the investor must be very good at evaluating businesses such that he is highly convinced to invest his capital heavily in only a few most outstanding companies. <A diversified portfolio works best for the average investor. He will likely receive average rate of returns peg close to index benchmark.> <A focused portfolio is only suitable for a knowledgeable investor good in evaluating businesses. He will likely receive higher rate of returns above the index benchmark should his judgment be accurate.> |

In my opinion,do not need to invest or spread ur money into so many counters. Stay focus on a few. |

Hello Everyone, First of all, a big thank you to all who selflessly share their views and knowledge of the stock market, and market movements on this forum. I am new to stock trading and am trying to build my portfolio. Can the veterans and successful traders tell us newbies what constitutes a good portfolio? A big thank you in advance！ Cheers, Clueless |
