AI Insight on Diversification


The portfolio is moderately diversified but leans toward concentration within a closely related group of technology stocks. The correlation matrix reveals that all individual positions—NFLX, AAPL, META, GOOG, and AMZN—exhibit moderate to high positive correlations with each other, ranging from 0.43 to 0.67. This indicates that these stocks tend to move in the same direction, which limits the diversification benefits typically sought in a portfolio.

Among the positions, AMZN shows the highest correlations with other stocks (0.54 to 0.67), suggesting it is more closely tied to the overall portfolio movements. Similarly, META and GOOG have relatively high inter-correlations (0.65) and also strong correlations with AMZN, reinforcing the concentration in large-cap tech companies with similar market drivers.

NFLX has the lowest correlations with some other positions, such as AAPL (0.43), which provides a modest diversification benefit within the portfolio. However, even NFLX’s correlations remain above 0.4, indicating limited independence from the tech sector trends.

The portfolio’s correlation with individual positions ranges from 0.71 (AAPL) to 0.83 (AMZN), showing that the portfolio’s performance is heavily influenced by these stocks, especially AMZN. No single position completely dominates, but AMZN and META have slightly stronger impacts on the portfolio’s overall behavior.

In conclusion, while the portfolio includes multiple stocks, the high inter-correlations and strong portfolio correlations suggest it is a concentrated portfolio focused on the FAANG tech giants. This concentration reduces diversification benefits and increases exposure to sector-specific risks.
