Portfolios

...”It’s better to be approximately right than 100% wrong”

The reason I build portfolios in each sector is that no one gets it 100 % right when deciding on an investment. Each portfolio is equal weight, meaning That at the time I add a new position to a portfolio I invest the same amount of money. For example, you can decide to invest 100USD in each position. Then as the portfolio grows to ten positions you invested 1000USD.

There is a reason I do this, it goes to the term “tolerance to volatility”. As mentioned before, markets can go in both directions (up in bull markets, down in bear markets).So if in our hypothetical portfolio one position goes down 10%,it means that the whole portfolio went down only 1%.

Over time I may add to a portfolio or close a position depending on the market. They are not the “hold and forget” type of investments.

As a general note, there are dividend “hunters” and value “hunters” among investors and a plenitude of investors in between. There are many other types of investors, but I will not go into that as I consider myself the “in between these two“types.

These are real money portfolios(my “skin” in the game),and do not represent 100% of my total investments.
