I just read your post in regards to diversification. Further information is necessary to get a detailed response.
In order for someone to answer this professionally they need to know:
What is the total asset value of the stocks that you purchase monthly? How many different positions do you currently hold and at what value each? Time horizon of investments etc...
The reason I ask, is that if the value is under 1 million dollars it is sometimes difficult to diversify away risk that is inherent to the market below that value.
Mutual funds were designed specifically for diversification and simplicity.
In this market it is especially important to be diversified and be guided professionally.
If you would like to have a second opinion on your investments, and some suggestions in regards to where you should be at your age and your asset class, Please contact me directly for further information.

Obviously I have had a rough year as well as the next guy, although I have started increasing my positions in AFL, C, and BAC since the week of Nov 20.
I am 32 years old if that matters in your answer. Thanks!
