That, along with your investing time frame and how much risk you're willing to take when investing in stocks, will help you determine how your stock investments should work with the rest of your investment portfolio. Stock investing can help your investment portfolio by providing potential growth, income from dividends or a combination of the two. However, the value of any stock can fluctuate, it may be worth more or less than you originally paid.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/2"][vc_single_image image="70604" img_size="full" add_caption="yes" onclick="link_image"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=".vc_custom_1444503529998{margin-top: 10px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;}"][vc_column][vc_separator color="#e2e2e2" thickness="1" el_class="dotted"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

  • Invest in approximately 20 to 30 stocks in at least six to eight sectors with different investment characteristics.
  • No more than 20% of the total value of your stock portfolio should be in any one sector.
  • No more than 10% of the total value of your stock portfolio should be in any one stock.
  • You should invest a minimum of approximately 3% to 4% of the total value of your stock portfolio in each stock.

That's why it's important to define one's financial goals and how much risk can be tolerated.
