Replying to Lerato K. on $JALSH“is Satrix 40 basically the same as owning the whole JSE or should I just pick one company to buy?”

@lerato_tfsa satrix 40 covers the biggest 40 companies, jalsh covers about 160. one company is like betting everything on one horse, the 40 spreads your risk wider.

@lerato_tfsa Satrix 40 is the top 40 companies, not the whole JSE. Picking one company is riskier, but the 40 is safer because if one drops, the others hold you up, think of it like a shop.

@lerato_tfsa the account itself doesn't protect you. if you buy a share worth R100 and it drops to R80, same loss either way. what matters is which shares you pick.
