Get on our phone calendar at https://TuckerRetirement.com. Imagine owning one of your favorite stocks and watching it suddenly drop 4% after the company announces plans to issue $15 billion of new common stock. What happened—and should shareholders be worried? In this episode, Scott Tucker explains stock dilution, why companies issue new shares, and why the market may immediately reprice a stock after a major share offering. It's also an important reminder about concentration risk. No matter how much you believe in one company, putting too much of your retirement portfolio into a single stock can expose you to risks you can't control.
