If I Could Only Buy 1 Stock Right Now, This Would Be It
If you're looking for a hedge against market volatility, diversification is a great way to go. Holding 25 stocks or more is one way to protect your portfolio from drastic swings in a single stock or industry. But some businesses can provide different types of diversification within their own company. Starbucks, for example, has revenue from China, creating geographic diversification for investors.
In a hypothetical situation where I could only buy one stock, I would look for one with impressive internal diversification, such as Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA). The company has operations in multiple markets that are growing fast and could each be huge over the long term.
