Investment Clinic: I’m 29 – should I still be taking stock tips from my dad?

Category: Business
Duration: 00:28:43

Description:

Matt started investing at just 22 with the help of his financial adviser father. Now, at 29, and with a wedding on the cards, he’s got an extra reason to be diligent about his money. Some of Matt’s stock picks (such as Glencore) haven’t been performing as he might like. Is it time to leave stock-picking behind, and focus on a more diversified approach?


Presenter Claer Barrett is joined by Adam Walkom, the co-founder of Permanent Wealth Partners, and Investors’ Chronicle editor Taha Lokhandwala, to discuss Matt’s situation. Adam and Taha disagree on the merits of stock-picking – but they’re in agreement about the concentration risk lurking within Matt’s portfolio.
