When is the ex-div date?
Brain freeze .... thanks
17/3 :)
I am back at $1.3, but only bought back half of my previous holding, just in case continue sliding after short bounce( even after ex divvy).
Success in the markets results in one share often throwing your balance out.!
It is what we all aim for, then we get worried we have got it too right, and have too much tied up it one share.!!!!
A successful investor told me to let my profits run ,cut my loses ,and only add to shares I have got right.!
Seems to work a treat.!!
So you start with 12.5% to 15% of your portfolio in one share.You get it right and you then have 30% of your portfolio in that share.
What would I do ? First of all I would be thankful I got it right.I would not buy any more over the 30%.I would consider selling any shares I get in DRP, if there was another company I was keen on.
35% plus I would sell 5% to 10% of the holding,but only if I was nervous/worried ,and saw a company that diversified my portfolio,otherwise sit back and enjoy the ride until you get nervous!!!!?? lol..
So if I had too much in HNZ or EBO,I would most probably look to add AIR, or SCL to my portfolio.,
An unbalanced portfolio well if you are a net saver it would soon balance out. Just add some cash.
Surely balance is the level of risk you want to expose yourself to. Or if you have an interest or deep understanding of a company this could be 100% of your portfolio. I am sure that Warren Buffetts family and friends aren't worried about their unbalanced exposure to Berkshire Hathaway. Greater risk can bring greater reward. So keep buying Heartland if you are comfortable.
