Want some feedback on my pie. Portfolio is for my USA/global exposure. more shifted towards tech. I will have more sector allocation to financials/consumer defensive stocks in my home country.
It looks good, assuming you are aware the Nasdaq ETF already holds a lot of your individual shares.
On a personal preference basic,
www.trading212.com/pies/l7AE745pugDAdWPrE5Fp4pOq7ZzM
I tried to diversify, the dividend yield is kinda low (sub 3% I think) so I added some growth stocks too, looking for feedback.
Thatās a lot in 1 pie, minimum deposit must be like Ā£40?
Iāll look closer at whatās in there when I have more time 
I would like advice on classifying some stocks, I generally am dividing into 3 pies, Core, Dividend, Growth.
However I am struggling to work out the ācoreā group, as if its a pontless group, as some could be classed as growth others as more stable dividend payers, but I feel 2 groups is too cluttered, so any help to classify better appreciated.
Core
aim: to growth but fairly stable and no highly volatile plays, no dividend requirement but they by nature do have them.
Stocks:
BAE systems
Diageo
Unilever
Aviva
Mcdonalds
Dividend/Long term plays
aim: High dividend potential or reliable dividend aristocrats/kings
Stocks:
Coca cola
AT&T
IBM
INTEL
Taylor Wimpey
BP
Royal Dutch Shell
Growth
aim: to push my portfolio worth up significantly next 6months-2 years (no swing trading)
Stocks:
Microsoft
Amazon
Alibaba
Facebook
Nvidia
Apple
(thinking of adding Lemonade next time I put funds in)
Thoughts?
I donāt think a company like Shell should be in the same category as Coca Cola. Maybe you could have two divides: stable/safe and growth/riskier and just divide by sector in both of those. Just my thoughts, do what seems best for you!
Donāt know if it was intentional but I donāt see any healthcare companies or utilities and just one finance company (nothing wrong with that but interesting anyways).
Thanks, yes I agree they are very different, so perhaps I split the dividend/long term into as you say two pies one stable like Coca cola and then riskier dividend/long term plays like Housing/Oil which have taking a battering this year.
I dont know much about the healthcare or ultility markets so any recommendations welcome, i know of coure AZ etc have benefitted from virus vaccine hopes but wonder if some are riskier now and may drop on slightest news their vaccine is a dud.
FInance wise I am in research mode right now, lots are down both UK and US, so working out which 2-3 to go into, thinking Wells Fargo US might be good, and whether Lloyds or Barclays for UK, and then something like Visa or Mastercard for payment financials.
I really love Visa and Mastercard (personally own Visa) and think thereās still some room for stable growth there, donāt know too much about Lloyds or Barclays. I like the Canadian BNS as a more risky bank play as theyāre quite exposed to Latin America (a region which I believe one day might start growing a ton) which has provided them with some growth aside from the stable canada part.
I own all of the stocks listed under but really love every single one of these companies so if you have any questions about them I would love to answer.
Healthcare:
-Sartorius (SRT3): German-based pharmaceutical and laboratory equipment supplier, more of a growth company
Utilities
Wow thanks, that is a great list to be getting on with, I will look into those in comings days/weeks and assess any to take a position in, if any questions will let you know!
Iām waiting for nested pies to split into sectors or growth/dividend pies and also add a nested etf pie also for dividends.
I would put PFE also into the quite safe healthcare list there. JNJ is super solid all the time.
@Hbomb have you considered moving KO to core? Coca cola co is pretty stable, low volatility. Growth is on the slightly slow side as they already own a huge portion of global soft drink market, but does grow year on year. Certainly feels way more core than Aviva imo.
Hereās a link to the core of my portfolio:

@Matt_C Well at the moment my ācoreā pie is really not the core of my investments lol, just not sure what to call it and how to group. Basically my ācoreā group is stuff which does fit well into growth but also is not a for sure long hold. So Nvidia is clearly growth, Coca Cola, AT&T etc clearly a dividend/long hold, but what about BAE, Aviva, etc, how do I class this middle ones.
I like the look of your core, but are those ones which (failing a big shift for that business) which you plan to hold for a long time? and slowly build up or are they ones which you are in for few months or a year then take profits and move on from that company?
engineer point of view answer 
divide it into pieces and give them names that makes sense, avoid generic names like ācoreā ācommonā ābasicā āgoodā āexpensiveā
Long term holdings. Only my growth pie is relatively shorter term. My REIT pie, dividend growth pie, dodgy high yield income pie (well this could be short term if they collapse), etc are all based around long term and either have a value I think will increase over time, or provide income I can use to pay bills with.
My mammoth US Financial Sector pie, that I am experimenting with,
50 stocks, from a criteria I made myself, including growth, performance, and RSI

Plan is to rebalance monthly and move in/out the stocks that are no longer in the ātop 50ā

I found it on youtube (Paul Briscoe), what you think, too many stocks (32) or just fine?
And the 2nd one, get rich or die tryingā¦ my plan is to put approx. $500 every month next 20 yearsā¦
www.trading212.com/pies/l79zBMxUuKDQDKyGTi6e1LGHTAHB
And the last one for my daughter college (target approx. $40k in next 12 years), also like 2nd one, heavy on tech
@Briscoe looks like you have a fan 
Sorry to derail the thread but didnāt want to post a whole new thread for one question.
I want to add a one more stock into a pie. When I try to add it itās over 100%. I want everything to automatically re-balance equally. How can I do this? Or do I have to go through each stock and manually readjust by 1% here and there.
