I'm in a bit of a quandary here... I have 11 holdings (12 if you count cash). Each of my 11 are currently valued at around 5% of my total except for 3 which are 2.5-3% of my total. As you can imagine, those 3 are oil related stocks.

So while looking to step in the market a bit more today, and balance the portfolio out...numbers say to pick up more of those 3 stocks.

Should I pay more attention to balancing my holdings back out...or add to those stocks that haven't got as beat up as the others? I still like and am holding XOM, ETP and KMI, I'm just not as enamored with them to keep on adding to them as much as I have already done during this slide.

I'm leaning toward adding 1% to the other 8 winners instead.
