Ok, I was right the first time.

If your portfolio value is $15,000,000 and you want to buy a stock at $100/share.

So, you can only purchase 10% of your total portfolio, which would make $1,500,000. Finally, 100,000 shares X $100/share would be $10,000,000, which is more than ten percent .. correct?

but if say 20k is less than 10% why can't we buy that? or does the 100k max pertain only to TV?
