Investing has become an entertainment industry. It’s no longer about making you money but about making the stock experts rich and they do it by pushing you to buy more stocks than you need.

It wasn’t always like this. Research by Bloom and Crocket in the early seventies found that a third of investors held just one stocks and half had two or fewer in their portfolios. More recent research from the Federal Reserve shows that the average investor now holds upwards of 30 stocks in their portfolio. Worse still is data from the New York Stock Exchange shows investors are trading in and out of their stocks like never before. This shows the average holding period for stocks, as high as eight years back in the 60s and until 1980…investors held on to their stocks for four years on average. That is long-term investing, giving stocks time to grow and even though most investors still say they invest long-term…that number is now five and a half months. Investors are now holding their stocks for less than half a year.

The problem with that 180 degree shift is that holding 30 or 40 individual stocks means you're probably not doing the research you need on any of them. You're spending maybe an hour max to look at the company, half of which is spent online reading some ‘expert’s analysis’, and you're definitely not able to keep up to date on the news and those earnings reports for every stock in your portfolio.

Wall Street has got us right where it wants us, flipping from one stock to another, salivating over the next hot stock tip and paying them for more!

Now, when we look at the actual research on how many stocks to own, and most of this is built around the idea of a minimum number of stocks that you need to be completely diversified. So the least number of stocks you should own in a portfolio so that your wealth doesn't jump up and down too much from just one single company. The most famous of this research is by Evans and Archer published in the Journal of Finance in 1968 . They found that you can get as diversification and spread that risk around in as few as 10 stocks.

In this video, I’ll show you exactly how many stocks to buy and an investing strategy that gives you both diversification and upside return.
