I knew I was tech-heavy and with the recent hits on techs I thought I should determine how diversified my long stocks are. I'm pretty tech-heavy but not extremely so. I'll probably be increasing the financials before long.

I'm not and dont desire to be. I've got a little healthcare and a lot of tech.

I like to find good companies in good to great industries. itll work out over time if I'm right.

I prefer to use total market where I can.

I'm 75% equities with 1/3 of that in international and 25% in bonds. I've been doing some re-balancing the past two days.

1/2 in a Vanguard 2035 Target Date fund
1/2 in a weed penny stock

Now that’s diverse.

That has to be the most schizophrenic portfolio I’ve ever seen

In my defense, I only started investing this year. My long term strategy is simply target date funds or a 3 fund portfolio.

After maxing a Roth IRA early in the year, I saw an opportunity with LVVV and threw $6K in it for the rest of this year’s money. After that I’m back to the conservative route for the long haul. I don’t intend to keep investing half my money in penny weed stocks for the next 12 years.
