I am thinking about tweaking my portfolio a bit.
The general approach as I understand, your risk factor should change with your age. So at this tender age, I am pretty aggressive in my focus.
How are you breaking up your risk in your current over all portfolio.
Highly aggressive
aggressive
moderate
conservative

I own mainly mutual funds right now so I guess you could consider that not as aggressive as a 10 stock portfolio but all my funds can be considered aggressive and I am about 75% foreign right now. I guess I could always start chasing metals if I get bored!!!!! _________________ "I know violence isn't the answer, I got it wrong on purpose." |

Ya, it is quite a bit heavy in foreign but I still figured it is well diversified since I cover so many different world markets. However that doesn't always translate into less risk since many world or "emerging" markets are really volatile......as we have seen the last week. I figure the ride will end pretty soon. _________________ "I know violence isn't the answer, I got it wrong on purpose." |

NOTE: I haven't evaluated stocks much lately. END NOTE. I think this stock looks pretty sound fundamentally. Revenue and GP are growing and their Asset - Debt ratio looks pretty good. I like when a company takes on long term debt but shows a bigger increase in assets than the amount of LTD they acquired. Industrial REITS have been doing pretty decent lately and China is an economy set to go off IMO. Technically the stock could be better, but where the markets are right now I'm not sure tech analysis is even valid. This comany looks to be doing better than it's competition and they are a bigger company. My only concern is that expanding into new foreign markets is tough on any company, kinda sink or swim, looks like it could be fun either way!! _________________ "I know violence isn't the answer, I got it wrong on purpose." |
