I have created the hypothetical portfolio. I used some optimization tools in Excel to create
this portfolio. I made sure that not one
of the stocks is more than 20% of the portfolio. I did
not use any technical analysis this time, so I will save the technical analysis
for another project.
I have selected the stocks for my upcoming experiment. Previously, I forgot to mention that there will be no short positions in this fictitious portfolio, and there will be seven stocks. I believe that seven stocks is a good number for this unique experiment.
This past semester, I learned an important lesson. It is tough to beat the market. I tracked the performance of my portfolio against the holy grail of U.S. stock benchmarks. While I did not exceed expectations, there is no reason to give up.
Some people will always complain about insurance costs. It
is unfortunate, for insurance is meant to protect you against unexpected losses. Hopefully, you never have an insurance claim
during your lifetime, but the odds are stacked against you or someone you
know. Besides, there would be no
insurance ever underwritten, if payable insurance claims never occur as a
matter of public policy.
Normally, I refuse to talk about gambling. For one, I try not to promote it. Two, I am positive that most people already
have enough lotteries, race tracks and fantasy sports in their lives. I do, however, live in the real world. Yes, I know the Mega Millions drawing occurs
twice a week, but there is something special about the next drawing, for it is worth
640 million before taxes.
