Since many are sharing investment strategies, I'll play along. I don't have the risk tolerance to be 100% single stocks. Tesla is the only single stock I own, and I own a larger share than my philosophy would normally allow. Once I realized the potential of TSLA, I decided to add more than I normally would while the price is/was as low as we would ever see minus day to day or month to month variations. Purchased all mine in the $180-$210 range and probably hold around 10% of my portfolio. Normally I would only hold about 5% outside of my normal asset allocation which is currently 100% S&P500 index fund. Almost no matter what happens in the country or world, or to any individual company, it's the guaranteed way to retire once I have 25x my annual expenses. I'm done buying TSLA for now, and my S&P position will continue to increase dramatically for another 6-8 years. If TSLA goes 10x, it will make a difference for me even though I'm not 100% TSLA i.e. would pay off my mortgage. I sleep better at night knowing that, almost no matter what, I can retire comfortably in 6-8 years no matter what any single stock does, including TSLA.
Will I purchase more TSLA in the future? Maybe. It's hard for me to see a scenario where TSLA does not go on to become the largest and most profitable company in the world. So maybe I will continue to allocate ~10% of my annual investments into TSLA. I will end up with quite a large position(to me) in that case, especially assuming 7-10x from here. Also, I can afford to lose that 10% and still have no worries.
Wish I'd become a TSLA shareholder back in 2013 as many of you have done!
Cheers, and best wishes and amazing success to all shareholders.
P.S. I definitely don't want to look back 10 years from now and figure out how much $ I lost by purchasing a brand new M3 LR AWD instead of TSLA with half that money while happily cruising around in a used Hyundai Ioniq PHEV, which is what I advised my daughter to buy!
