TickerHunter: If I may very respectfully answer your post like this. I believe that the answer to your question is different for every person in that for some people having 100 shares is a substantial investment for them and for others 100,000 shares is a substantial investment. What I learned over many years is never invest with scared money, money that you can't afford to lose! Don't just consider all aspects of the company but also consider the economy, world events, the sector that the company is in, the political environment etc. For me, but it may not be appropriate for everyone, I am currently 30 percent invested in stocks and 70 percent in cash because I don't like world events, the political environment ( especially the political environment regarding marijuana use and the current laws ), and the current economic conditions in America. Have a preplanned exit point, what works for me is when a stock has increased 75 to 100 percent from what I paid for it I will sell 50 to 60 percent of my shares thereby getting close to 100 percent of my initial investment back just in case that something really going wrong with the company. I hope that this advice helps you! Sincerely, Senior Chief
