I have heard Brinker say several times, that in a stock portfolio, one should not have more than 4% of the funds in any one company. In other words, if you choose to invest in individual stocks, you should invest in at least 25 stocks.

But from what I have read, a portfolio of 8 to 12 stocks (in different industries) is considered to be adequately diversified. And in fact, any portfolio that has 15 or more stocks is considered to be "over-diversified". Does Brinker give any reasons for differing with this?

Dipy.
