Q: Good morning all. My first purchase of PNG was in May 2024, so almost 2 years ago. I did take some profit off the table early on but have not since you have been recomending the stock. So I've got way more than 500% on this one.
Knowing stock weightings are personnal what maximum percentage of each small cap should we limit our risk to for such stocks as PNG or VNP or ZDC for example. Also what would be a reasonnable proportion of a total portfolio devoted to small caps do you see as reasonable (and somewhat conservative). Thank you

5i Research Answer:
Generally speaking, we would limit single exposure to a small cap at 5%. Our growth model right now is higher than that for PNG. ZDC is smaller than the other two so we might aim at 3%. We think a general guide for small cap total exposure should be 15% to 20% tops.
