Cramer: I'm Buying ...

If you add CSCO and T you can drop USO, NYX, NE, HAL and LVLT (without losing any useful -
i.e., risk-lowering - diversification) and your average correlation of monthly returns
drops to 17.5%; that's a significant improvement. T is better than VZ: higher return for
the same level of risk.

Looks fair, but I'd be tempted to swap out a couple of the energy holdings for VZ and
Cisco, or AT&T and Cisco. You'd still be solid in your energy holdings, but would have
telecommunications in there and would be well diversified.

In fact, this portfolio is fairly well-diversified: the average correlation of monthly
returns is 26%; not great, but not bad.
You could improve its diversification somewhat, but it's not catastrophic as it stands.

You need to diversify a.s.a.p, you have way to much energy related stocks, and if that
sector takes a tumble, so does your 401K. Spread out your portfolio like butter, a
general coating is much better than a large chunk!
