Is Your Portfolio Well-Diversified?

During a market downturn, people often talk about the importance of diversification. 🌐 But how many stocks should you actually own to be truly diversified? 🤔 A prevailing statement is that you should plan to own 25 to 30 stocks if individual stocks are to make up the majority (50% or more) of the equity part of your portfolio. 💼 Owning at least 15 stocks helps avoid over-concentration in any single stock or sector. 📊

All the best to you. I also currently in a big drawdown. And I am too concentrated rather than diversified because I don't have much fund
