just curious, how diverse is your portfolio? is it too risky to have more than 20 different stocks in 2 main industries?

NVDA

ADBE

AMD

AMZN

BABA

TSMC

TSLA

AMD

BAC

NFLX

You’re just an ETF then.
You want double/triple/quadruple, etc. gains, your portfolio should be under 5 stocks.
Otherwise, it’s just a mutual fund at 20.
20 in 2 industries is a bit risky, IF you want to lower your risk.

Depends on how good you are at predicting industry market returns.

    TSLA
    NFLX

  2. Banking

    BABA

  4. Tech EV

  5. Tech Streaming
    NFLX

  6. Commercial Banking

Doesn’t seem too diverse for me. You could do an ETF for your tech fix and maybe diversify into health/travel (post-pandemic), energy (post-ukraine), real estate (post-China), etc? Just sayin’

Too many. My Robinhood list is huge. I crushed S&P for a year or two but now I’m way behind. I also never check or trade those anymore, so it’s my fault.

My large single-stock allocations are in the top tech companies. NVDA, AMD, Amazon, Google, MSFT, FB. They’ve done super well obviously, sucked recently but still way up vs S&P. My AMD and NVDA gains are like 800% or something.

I also buy ETFs that are more niche, like commodity indexes recently.

Around 70% of my portfolio are just ETFs like Voo that I just hold.

The other 30% are my tactical positions.

For example, peloton, Shopify, PayPal we’re all big winners for me during the pandemic because i anticipated more online purchases and peloton just made sense as all the gyms were actually trying to do online classes. TSMC has also been one of my big winners.

My portfolio is very similar.

Around 70% ETF based (VTI, XUU), and then 30% or so individual stocks like GOOG, AMZN, AMD, and some other chip stocks. I also have a few international (country /area specific) ETFs for India, Thailand, Mexico, and Taiwan. I generally don’t like the more generic international ETFs because they generally have way too much exposure to Chinese companies, which I want nothing to do with.

I’m the same. I do my best to limit my exposure to Chinese firms. Not just for political and human rights reasons, but I also think there’s a lot of risk right now with the direction Xi is taking china.

:100: Percent!!

That is also why I have bought into India, who I think is poised to replace China in many aspects.
