How Many Baskets Should You Put Your Eggs In?

How Many Baskets Should You Put Your Eggs In?

How diversified should you make your investment portfolio? How many baskets should you use? Although there is no one answer to that question, there are lots of opinions. There is a saying that “concentration builds wealth and diversification preserves it” but it’s more complicated than that. It’s more a question of psychology, circumstance, and risk tolerance than math.

Some of the greatest investment success stories of all time, such as Sam Walton through Wal-Mart or Warren Buffett through Berkshire Hathaway were built through concentration in a single business. However, in those circumstances diversification also was present. Wal-Mart continually diversified geographically, and Berkshire Hathaway continually diversified into new business lines. Regardless, holding one stock, or a handful of stocks, and the volatility that goes with it isn’t for everyone. As Warren Buffett wisely stated:

“If you are a professional and have confidence, then I would advocate lots of concentration. For everyone else, if it’s not your game, participate in total diversification.”

What do we recommend? It’s personal and by that we mean that it should be personal to each and every investor to think about and decide his or her own comfort level. If you don’t mind volatility in pursuit of higher returns, you may want to concentrate. If you think that concentration would make you stay awake at night, you may want to pursue more diversification.
