Day 5 – Building Your First Portfolio (Start Small, Grow Smart)
A portfolio is simply a collection of your investments.
Think of it like a cricket team 🏏
You need batsmen, bowlers, and all-rounders—not just one type of player.
Similarly, your portfolio should have:
Large-cap (stable companies)
Mid-cap (growth potential)
Maybe 1–2 high-risk bets
Avoid over-diversification. 5–8 stocks are enough for beginners.
Practical approach:
Start with:
2–3 strong large-cap stocks
Add more gradually as you learn
