All I can say is thanks to weed stocks. Because of them, my portfolio is down 0.5% today instead of more than double the losses per NDX and R2K.

And I am saying this to answer your comment about having 200 stocks. There was a time that I would confine myself to 10 - 20 positions. And when it was good, it was really good. You'd think I could retire to Monaco and work 3 hours a day and spend the rest of my time rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous. But when it was bad, it really sucked and my wife would threaten to divorce me.

The point being, that how many stocks you diversify into is directly related to how volatile they are. If you are gunning for things that swing double digit days, you'd better be very diversified or one day your biotech goes up 30%, then next day it drops 50%.
