The trouble with owning just one stock is that you reduce the probability of success. It's more risky, and therefore, the probability of success goes lower. The equation, accepted by most scholars is very simple:

Expected value (give it whatever symbol you choose) is equal to expected income growth per share, multiplied by the probability of success (less than 1.00, and much less if you limit your investment to just one stock).
