US & International stocks. What do you hold and why?
I’m fairly new to investing and trying to learn more about US/international shares from people with more experience.
Curious what individual US or global stocks people here actually hold, and why? How have the results been over the years?
Also trying to understand the real pros and cons for an investor buying US stock... things like growth potential, currency risk, tax, dividends, fees, and whether it’s worth the extra complexity compared to sticking mostly with ASX shares or ETFs.
Not looking for financial advice, just wanting to learn how more experienced investors think about international investing and portfolio balance.
Thanks.
