A friend suggested the following to me years ago:

Equal parts of VTI VEU VWO.

VTI is US heavy, so you add VEU to balance it out with non-US stocks. After you add that in, you are heavy on developed economies, so you add VWO to balance things out a bit more.

oil is close to rock bottom, watch for oil stocks pushed excessively low by panicking speculators

I see you're using HL here.

I have a Legal and General FTSE All Share to track the UK stock market and a vanguard fund for the USA. Some others for other regions like Europe and Japan. Look at the Index funds on offer under the funds tab.

I also have a select few bluechips with strong dividend performance too.

And don't worry OP, we all start somewhere. I have less than half of what you and I'm adding £500 a month.

cheers for the replies. Hopefully I can average out another recession as I won't be taking my pension for 30 years

I've been learning about investing and portfolio construction recently and have been thinking about SIPPs. It's something I might think about later once I get better at this but for now I'm leaving my pension in a fund, paying into it monthly and just leaving it alone.

What I've done instead is to just open up an investment ISA and doing all my learning and playing around in there. A bit like a second pension. So If I do push things too far I don't fuck up my actual pension.

I'm kinda glad we're going though these rough times in the market right now as it's still early days for me and teaching me some good lessons.

I'm the one getting BTFO, and yes, it's all I the picture...

Look at the at the top and left hand side to know what the information means.

The total invested is at the bottom. About £6500.

This is how much I had in last month too. I'm down about £450 since Christmas.
