Currently my portfolio consists of 3 ETFs and stocks of 18 companies (plus a piddly amount of cryptos). I already find those 18 a lot, mainly because of tracking results etc.
How do you have your portfolio spread out and how much do you track each company?
I have a portfolio similar to yours. I also have 3 ETFs and stocks a little less. I think up to 20 stocks is fine. But as you write, it's hard to keep track of it all afterwards.
Great. I've got about a third with divi, there still just thinking I'd like more because it's a nice passive income. I guess it's really nice to have about 10 of those divas, in case one of them stops paying.
So 18 companies seems like a lot to me... I try to stick around 10 max + crypto :)
I have 21 different stocks/etf. News is something to follow, but I wouldn't overdo it again, it's important to choose quality companies with a good outlook.
Right. I started focusing more on divi stocks about a year ago, passive income is good, especially when you start having a family and want to devote yourself to it:)
I only invest in companies that I know won't just disappear and it's not that important if there's a price fluctuation. I do when I buy a stock I do analysis on the weekly chart and there's not that much to deal with often as once in a while when you set certain levels that are interesting, so what happens in between you can't really care 🤷♂️ for example CVS is now buying a lot because it looks good both on the weekly and overall as a company and at a -40% discount, well don't buy it... 😂 Otherwise I have 20 so far but I'll get to 25 as the giants Apple , Google etc.. go buy well 😂
This is how I have it so far, I have a threshold set for when I get a notification. At the same time, I'm trying (probably unnecessarily) to keep track of the companies
18 is still good if you can keep up. I know investors who go for 30+ shares, that seems slightly unreasonable to me already, but everyone has a different risk tolerance, so I don't take it away from anyone if it works and suits them. I stay under 15.
Yeah before kids it seemed like a good number to me, now mitch 18 passes just a lot:D
