Hi everyone, I've finally got a ETF portfolio and a monthly investment plan I am content with. Now I am looking for stocks to invest in.

My portfolio holds 20k in various ETFs build for slow-ish growth with little real risk.

I want to invest 5k, so 1/4 the of my current portfolio value in a handful of stocks.

I want to divide it like so:

3k in a stock that is very unlikely to drop in value and also very unlike to "moonshot"

1,5k in a stock that's a bit more risky, but also has a higher likelihood of increasing value (est +15%)

500 in a stock that's still very speculative, should increase the most, but it won't burn my account of it blows complety

What are your thoughts?
