Doug Morris is the CEO of Sharesight, a tech investing platform with over 300,000 users who use it to track their performance, their tax and more.
With so many users and a seemingly endless stream of data, I wanted to ask Doug about all the interesting — but often not talked about share investing questions — such as ‘what on earth are investors *actually* doing with their portfolios?
As Doug tells us, more Australian investors are:
- Pretty well diversified with 20-30+ stocks
- Rapidly adopting the power of ETFs
- Investing more of their portfolio overseas
- Tracking their performance
I must admit, that’s pretty refreshing to hear!
(Here I was thinking too many of us just wanted to buy ‘the next hot stock’).
