Episode notes
Successful investing often requires a measured approach, avoiding overexposure to any single trade or investment. Keeping the number of positions to three or four can mitigate risk; surpassing this may lead to losses, especially if it approaches ten. Investors can capitalize on individual stocks rather than relying solely on index funds, potentially gaining an edge through a personalized strategy. Combining various advantages across multiple stocks allows for better outcomes than random selection and provides tax benefits through realized gains and losses. Diversification becomes crucial for identifying and steering clear of underperforming companies, particularly those with high borrowing costs.
