Value stocks are rising nicely right now. I don't have $KR1.8% in my portfolio, but otherwise the value and dividend stocks in my portfolio are performing solidly right now.
Hi investors, I would like to ask, what percentage of a portfolio do you think should be invested in one company's stock at most to still be considered a "sound" investment? Do you have any limitations? For example, you don't want to have more than 10% ptf allocation in one company's stock or you don't look at that?
Are you inspired by Warren Buffett and his investing?
He's one of the best investors and it's definitely good to keep track of what he's doing and what stocks he's bought or sold on a regular basis. For example, I was inspired by investing in $AAPL-0.1%, so I bought the stock a few years ago and am currently making a nice profit on it (it was also the first stock I bought).
📈 CoreWeave - a new player on the stock exchange! Nvidia-backedstartup CoreWeave went public just a few days ago. Its IPO didn't go so well. The shares opened below the subscription price. The media wrote about the disappointment. Investors were hesitant.
Today, the stock is up more than +20 % and the price has climbed above the IPO threshold - $48.70 per share , up from $40. A... Read more
I was honestly expecting more growth, but luckily I didn't buy. But it will be of some interest to see how the company fares and what results it reports then.
Shares of $JNJ1.1% fell 4% today after a US judge rejected Johnson & Johnson's proposal to settle tens of thousands of lawsuits for $10 billion. I don't have $JNJ1.1% stock in my portfolio and I certainly won't be buying it, because its growth is lousy and the business isn't doing very well either.
Does it make sense for anyone else to invest in $JNJ?
Business is probably good, but the stock just isn't growing and it's not very interesting. The company has some issues and the stock will probably still go sideways.
Amdocs (DOX): stable software player with growth potential
Amdocs $DOX0.8% which provides software solutions for telecom and media companies, has caught analyst attention for its low volatility and steady growth. Its stock is up nearly 7% this year, despite a 6% decline in the S&P 500.
Steady growth and low earnings volatility:
10-year EBITDA growth variability of only 5% - very... Read more
VeriSign: The stealth winner in Buffett's portfolio
VeriSign stock $VRSN0.5% are up more than 21% this year, making it Berkshire Hathaway's best-performing U.S. investment. With growth of more than 32% over the past 12 months, the firm is showing that its stable business model, high margins and removal of regulatory risk are delivering attractive returns to investors.
It's probably not that interesting to me, but Buffett has clearly succeeded in this investment and it's very likely that the stock will continue to rise for some time.

Do you think the end of Musk at DOGE will be a positive for Tesla $TSLA? Or is the 32% YTD decline a reflection of investor distrust, given tariffs, sales, potential price increases and further margin compression?
Let's see how the stock reacts tomorrow and if anything changes. But if Musk really does leave DOGE and start focusing on his companies, the stock should rise again.
That Google is sinking pretty good. On Friday, the stock was down 4% and the price was down to $156. That's an 18% drop this year alone, but fortunately the fundamentals haven't changed, which I see as a great opportunity, so I'll be overbought.
What do you think of the current valuation of $GOOG? Are you overbought?
Energy Transfer: stable growth, high dividends and long-term potential
Energy Transfer $ET is one of the largest U.S. energy infrastructure operators with a market capitalization of $64 billion. ET stock is up 22.5% over the past year, and when you add in a dividend yield of over 6.8%, the total return to investors is over 30%.
As a dividend stock, I think it's great, and if I wanted to focus on steady growth and regular income, I'd choose this stock in a heartbeat. Plus the current price isn't too high.
📅 Weekly overview of key events that can move the market:
None of the companies I follow are reporting earnings this week, so I will focus only on macroeconomic data. Earnings season starts again next week!
📊 Tuesday ISM Manufacturing PMI (US) - An index that tracks activity in the manufacturing sector. It serves as a leading indicator for the overall health of the economy.
There will certainly be an interesting reaction to Tesla stock. Otherwise, I agree that $GOOG1.2% looks very interesting and I'll probably overbought as well.

It depends on how high quality the stock is, but I don't think it's good or safe to have more than 10% in one stock.
