PORTFOLIO WEIGHT
The percentage composition of a particular holding in a portfolio. Portfolio weights can be simply calculated using different approaches: the most basic type of weight is determined by dividing the dollar value of a security by the total dollar value of the portfolio. Another approach would be to divide the number of units of a given security by the total number of shares held in the portfolio.
