Picking stocks thoughtfully

Diversify across people and sectors; ignore tip culture.

A good pick fits a thesis: growth story, durable audience, fair price relative to peers — not “someone said buy.”

Spreading StarBux across different sectors and fame tiers reduces the chance one scandal or one quiet week wipes the whole portfolio.

Prefer fewer researched positions over a dozen tip-driven tickets. StockSt rewards learning the process.
