Avoid Diworsification

Diversification is key This is the conventional wisdom, spread your investments to reduce risk. No doubt, it is a proven working formula. Few people are interested in placing all their eggs in one basket. But, Warren Buffett says those who diversify has no clue what they are doing. I am not in a position to argue with the Oracle of Omaha, he has made billions of dollars doing what he know. Diworsification Too much of something is a problem, just as too much diversification can defeat the purpose of diversification. Obviously, you are chasing the noble goal of minimising risk, while you are it, you are thinning out your investments!

This list is by no means exhaustive, just what I can remember and what I have experienced. You can buy a company that is about to delist. I believe that insider trading is rife, and you cannot convince me otherwise. Typically a company can make an offer to buyout existing shareholders, more often than not at a higher price than the trading price. Some insiders may want to load up, the retail trader will start to see irregular trade volumes, and jump in if it fits their strategy. The price can go up, making really good profit. Until one day you wake up to a letter telling you that your days as the company shareholder are numbered. Well, if the offer is higher than my p
