I have personally found that the longer your invested stock list, the more time you need to spend on understanding each stock. with each quarter results, you will need to go thru the results for all your stocks.
unless you have a lot of time, having more than 10 stocks to manage will be difficult. most of us have a full time job, family plus other commitments.
the other thing i found is that the more spread out you are, the effect on your portfolio from a multibagger is lessen. so, spend time to find the best stocks and allocate more $ to that stock. if your assessment is correct, you will be rewarded handsomely.
I typically try to limit my stock to 10 or less. of course, it will be different for you. it will depend on your situation.
