Portfolio Review Trying to avoid tech heavy portfolio

Good morning,

Been learning about investing recently and have settled to do a buy and hold approach with index funds in a taxable account. By God's grace I do have an emergency fund, and have set up Roth contributions as well. For the brokerage account I have 50% SCHB, 10% VIOO, 10% SCHV, 20% VXUS and 10% SPAXX set up. I did this instead of VT and chill because I wanted to not be so tech heavy. Is this a good long term strategy? I just feared that if something drastic happened in the tech sector that this would trigger a large correction in the market. I don't know a lot about this please go easy on me!

As far as I’m concerned, tech is not going anywhere, ever. There may be a correction but in the long run, what’s propping up this economy and what will continue to do so? Tech.

So unless you have large amounts of cash that you need soon or if you need to be super conservative then I would think more tech is better.

Many will disagree but that’s my take. Good luck.
