at least above 5 counters to diversify your risk, and in different sectors. short of that its like trying to find a needle in a hay stack

ordinarily I have 15 or more stocks at a time. I have a core set of 5 shares ( centum, kcb, jubilee, CFC, scbk ).that constitute 70% of my holdings. the rest it's a poker game. I can't complain ( learnt strategy from centum, wanderi , babla et al)
