Think percentages<\/span> vs. number of shares.<\/p>\n

\"12<\/a><\/p>\n

As you build your portfolio of stocks, concentrate on the percentage of your overall portfolio you want to invest<\/strong> and don't focus on the number of shares. <\/p>\n

For example, one of the biggest mistakes novice investors make is buying 50, 75 or 100 shares of a stock. Instead, take your overall portfolio value and divide it evenly into percentages and then purchase your investments according to this plan. <\/p>\n

Remember tip #5? It's easier to diversify using percentages.<\/p>\n
