Over the years this diworsification term has been leveraged to describe some investors who believe they are diversifying their assets but may be doing more harm than good in the process. This term has also been used in context of holding a concentrated basket of stocks (say 10 or 15; including younger companies and start-ups) and believing this is a better approach to returns beyond owning hundreds if not thousands of stocks from various sectors and countries (i.e., <a href=\"https:\/\/www.myownadvisor.ca\/indexing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">indexing that you can read more about on my site here<\/a>). This is because with just a handful of stocks, there is a higher chance of very poor, possible investment outcomes including when we are talking any early-stage companies that could go under.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless of the context associated with diworsification, you can probably appreciate that most investment choices should try to achieve the following:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>a<\/em><em> good risk\/reward trade-off such that any DIY investor aligns their investment choices with their financial goals. <strong>So, make plans before products is my motto.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>This means depending upon your goals your financial decisions could be vastly different than your neighbour, your friend, your co-worker, your immediate family member and the list goes on\u2026<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Diversifcation can protect wealth but concentration builds wealth<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In a previous Weekend Reading edition, <em>I wondered if diversification really matters at all<\/em> given the most successful investor of our modern times does not practice this \u2013 even though he preaches it.\u00a0<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"HCOljsiE7D\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.myownadvisor.ca\/weekend-reading-does-diversification-really-matter\/\">Weekend Reading \u2013 Does diversification really matter?<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content lazyload\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"\u201cWeekend Reading \u2013 Does diversification really matter?\u201d \u2014 My Own Advisor\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.myownadvisor.ca\/weekend-reading-does-diversification-really-matter\/embed\/#?secret=oPpttU5IWk#?secret=HCOljsiE7D\" data-secret=\"HCOljsiE7D\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Warren Buffett, despite what he preaches, does his own thing and does not practice diversification whatsoever.\u00a0Here is a look at Warren Buffett\u2019s portfolio today. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buffett.online\/en\/portfolio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">You can always track it yourself in an updated link here. <\/a><\/p>\n<p>Do you see diversification in practice with &gt;60% of his assets, <em>billions of assets,<\/em> in just four (4) stocks?<\/p>\n<p>Yet he mentions:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cBy periodically investing in an index fund, for example,\u00a0<strong>the know-nothing investor can actually out-perform<\/strong> most investment professionals.

To compound that, you may or may not be compensated with returns for accepted this unnecessary risk.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>For each individual investment we make there is a number on the roulette wheel. We can bet on the same number all night and that number might not come up. In this case, the investor is banking on low probability but higher payout if\/when their number comes up.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of betting on a number, one or more stocks, you could consider owning the entire casino by focusing on all of the possible outcomes\/companies available to you. Some stocks will be stars. Some stocks will be absolute dogs. Yet, via equity indexing, you own them all.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Through diversification, while an investor may lose out on the chance to win big, said investor may also avoid having invested solely in an asset that could make them poor. <strong>Diversification in a word narrows the range of possible outcomes.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Well over a decade ago, I wrote about how many stocks are enough. Very interesting to look back at what I wrote:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cOver time, while at the time of this post I own almost 40 individual stocks from Canada and the U.S., I\u2019d like to get that number down to about 20-30 at most and then index invest the rest.
