AI Insight on Diversification
The portfolio is moderately diversified but leans toward concentration within a specific sector and theme, namely large-cap technology and internet-related companies often grouped under the "FANG Plus" label. The correlation matrix reveals several insights about the portfolio's internal relationships and diversification characteristics.
Firstly, many of the positions exhibit relatively high positive correlations, especially among the U.S.-based tech giants such as AAPL, NVDA, META, GOOGL, and AMZN, with correlations generally ranging from about 0.5 to 0.7. These strong correlations suggest that these stocks tend to move in tandem, which reduces the diversification benefit within this subset of the portfolio.
Among the Chinese tech names (TCEHY, BIDU, BABA), correlations are also moderately high, with BIDU and BABA showing a correlation of 0.66, indicating these positions are somewhat clustered and may respond similarly to regional or sector-specific factors. This clustering reduces diversification across geographic lines within the portfolio.
Tesla (TSLA) stands out with notably lower correlations to TCEHY (0.12) and generally lower correlations to other positions compared to the rest, with most correlations in the 0.3 to 0.4 range. This lower correlation helps improve diversification by introducing some idiosyncratic risk that is less tied to the broader tech and internet sector movements.
Looking at the portfolio’s correlation with individual positions, the portfolio correlates most strongly with AMZN (0.73), NVDA (0.71), and GOOGL (0.71), indicating these stocks have a dominant influence on the portfolio’s overall behavior. This suggests a concentration risk, where the portfolio’s performance is heavily driven by a few large-cap tech names.
On the other hand, TCEHY has the lowest correlation with the portfolio at 0.37, indicating it contributes some diversification benefit by behaving differently from the portfolio’s main drivers.
In summary, while the portfolio includes a few lower-correlated positions like TSLA and TCEHY that help mitigate concentration risk, it remains relatively concentrated in highly correlated large-cap tech stocks. This concentration means the portfolio is exposed to sector-specific risks and may not be well insulated against broad tech market downturns. The diversification benefits are moderate but limited by the strong co-movement among the core tech holdings.
