I thought might be interesting to see how people structure their portfolios without needing specific details, unless people want to. There is no right answer, but arguably a few wrong ones?
This might also help people rethink their risk which with recent market activity is a good thing to do.
So, how much of your portfolio % is:
Top holding
Top 5 holdings
Top 10 holdings
Mine is:
Top 1: 15%
Top 5: 45%
Top 10: 68%
My ethos is to be diversified but also to not dilute my conviction picks.
Yeah I think 10 or so still gives some diversification if strong selections less than say 8/9 starts to be less so. guessing the 34% in Tesla is due to its crazy 2020 run up not because you bought so much? What I mean is did you aim for 30+% in Tesla or it was more like your apple holding and ran up.
For those with top holding as 25%+ I am guessing mostly these are ETFs? If not donβt you worry putting so much faith in a single stock no matter how good to be volatile/risky?
interesting question indeed,
Top 1: ~20%
Top 5: ~50%
Top 10: ~55%
My top two are low-cost broad market ETFs and already take up 40% of my portfolio. I have no single individual stock directly be over 3% of my entire portfolio
