I was told we should not park all our money into 1 industry lest something happens to it. I have RM 25k to put into my dividend counter portfolio (brand new and just started).

When parking money into dividend counters, what is the best amount to allocate per company? Thanks.

Ok so 25k for 1 counter and build up to a 100k of 3 counters?

Hi guys, I am about to make my first buy in dividend stocks. So could I be kindly pointed the way to do my due diligence? I don't know where they hide their prospectus or earning stuff or things I need to look for. Pls do point to me what I need to look out for good buys and bad buys (goodbyes). Thanks. Right now I only know tobacco and alcohol companies are better buys.

Ic. Besides being stable I would like to aim for high dividends. Do petroleum giants payout that as well? I always thought they pay normal dividends only. My company (petroleum giant) where I work at also offers employee share programs? Do I buy this one then? Cos many of my colleagues don't.
