Re constructing a portfolio-- You mention you manage a "small" porfolio. I don't know how small you mean, but I would just add to the responses you've already received--It doesn't make a lot of sense to break up investments into extremely small pieces if the transaction costs will tend to become material. A $12 fee on a $5,000 investment costs 24 basis points. Breaking up the purchase into 4 lots will cost 1 percent. Do that repeatedly through a year, and you've cost yourself some real money. Better to start a program of stock buying, in which you buy just one stock at a time over an extended period. Best, John
