That's pretty concentrated for my taste - but also much easier to manage! (And significantly de-risked by the high cash %age).

Henry Viola-Heir @htviolaheir.bsky.social · Jul 6

You're spot on there - it's kind of the approach I'm trying take. 100% agree that the smallest are also typically easy pickings for selling and consolidating into my larger positions 👌

A reasonable concern - on a capital basis, including dividends, I'm on about a 1% annualised return which is pretty underwhelming!
