Hey all,
Have more of a general question - I recently opened up positions in a few large cap stocks (AMZN, META, PEP to be specific) with plans to hold these for the foreseeable future. Long term holds that I don't plan on looking at or touching too often. The question I have is - what is the reason do to do this rather than just put it all in some index fund like VTI? Am I better off just throwing all of these funds in an index fund like that? Realistically the chances of these stocks beating the overall market seem to be slim. Pardon my ignorance if this is an obvious question!
For transperancy, I was planning on putting ~70% of my funds into index funds (VTI and SCHD) anyway, and using the other 30% for specific stocks. Is it better to just put 100% into ETFs?
