Is Your Portfolio Well-Diversified?

During a market downturn, people often talk about the importance of diversification. 🌐 But how many stocks should you actually own to be truly diversified? 🤔 A prevailing statement is that you should plan to own 25 to 30 stocks if individual stocks are to make up the majority (50% or more) of the equity part of your portfolio. 💼 Owning at least 15 stocks helps avoid over-concentration in any single stock or sector. 📊

Quick question for the guys. So I’ve read that auto investing weekly in the same stocks is good. And now I’ve read that diversifying is also good. So my question is how do you navigate the 2 ? Do you buy say 10 different stocks and then auto invest in all 10 weekly ? Or only auto invest in a select few of the 10 stocks you own? Or auto invest in one of the 10 stocks you own alternating between them weekly ? What are strategies that people use in regards to auto investing and diversification?
$SPDR Gold Shares(GLD)$  Investing in gold can be a strategic way to diversify your portfolio and hedge against inflation or economic uncertainty. Here are a few ways to invest in gold: 1. **Physical Gold**: This includes buying gold coins, bars, or jewelry. Ensure you have a safe storage option. 2. **Gold ETFs**: Exchange-traded funds that track the price of gold can be an easy way to gain exposure without the need for physical storage. 3. **Gold Mining Stocks**: Investing in companies that mine gold can offer leverage to gold prices but comes with additional risks related to the company's operations. 4. **Gold Futures and Options**: These are contracts to buy or sell gold at a future date and can be more complex, requiring a good underst

Good read. Taking some profit ahead of a meltdown is not easy. Buying during dips requires wisdom, resilience and patience in such volatile market. Only invest the leaders of the stocks you are familiar. Therefore newbies are advised: Do not chase the market and not to panic sell. Do not borrow to trade in the market. When the market is high, it may go higher and when it seems to be low, it could go much lower. May the market be with you!

I truly like to have a well diversified portfolio. But one should not over-do the number of stocks, otherwise one might as well just by the index. As a retail investor, a portfolio of 10 to 20 stocks, across various sectors, industries and countries, is less risky than just owning one or two stocks. All my stocks have the same weightage of the total portfolio. Good luck! Thanks @Tiger_comments @icycrystal

15 SG stocks at the moment. I hope to add another 2-4 stocks. Thereafter, I will just add quantity to increase my dividends payout. 10 UT and 2-4 are extremely high risk ie individual country. 6 US stocks with Tiger is just “for fun” as big holding is ESPP.

I have a mix of paper loss and paper gains. The best way to diversify is to buy ETFs. It is convenient and easy. Also, there are many with low expense ratio. Choose one that reflect the world index then have some thematic or geographical plays. Can also choose crypto to diversify further. Depending on risk appetite and investment horizon, can also add in gold or other commodities and bonds. My personal preference is to keep to stocks only.

Goldman Sachs:"Huge Buybacks are Coming", Did You Buy the Dip?

At the beginning of last week, the poor non-farm employment in the United States triggered a panic about economic recession, which led to a sharp drop in the U.S. stock market $S&P 500(.SPX)$ $NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ . By the end of the week, the U.S. stocks had recovered most of the losses. On Monday, August 12th, the U.S. stock indices opened collectively higher, and ultimately the S&P 500 and the NASDAQ, with the help of chip stocks, closed higher.Goldman Sachs trader Vani Ranganath pointed out in the weekly report that this is because corporate stock buybacks, as a "supporting force" for the U.S. stock market, are coming. Currently, 90% of the $S&P 500(.SPX)$

10 stock is the max in my opinion. of not reli hard to follow up the stocks
I think 10 stocks should be enough because having too diversified does not generally mean higher profitability. Tech stocks, Healthcare, Semiconductors,  Bank, Automobile, ETF and dividend stocks. You may end up losing more if you have 25 stocks to monitor and pump in. Just for for secured stocks such as Tesla, Microsoft, Google, Apple, BrkA n B.

not sure mine is truly diversified but I'm still losing around 300$. I just close one eye because for me it's a long term investment
ETFs form my portfolio's core, providing diversification and stability. Individual stocks are my tactical overlay, delivering a daily dose of convexity and excitement - with occasional 'tuition fees' paid when I'm wrong. $Invesco NASDAQ 100 ETF(QQQM)$ $SPDR Portfolio S&P 500 Growth ETF(SPYG)$ $
