Buying shares in just one company is generally considered a riskier bet than investing in a range of investments - AKA a "diversified portfolio". Experts generally recommend holding a mix of investments in specific assets and funds. Funds are ready-made portfolios of multiple companies' shares (potentially including ASOS), and the idea is that drops in the value of one constituent company's share price might be offset by rises in others.
ASOS is a major part of the London stock exchange, so it's included in many global funds and investment trusts, as well as tracker-style exchange traded funds (ETFs).
Only you can make the decision on the time to leap... but here's some supporting information and analysis.
Over the last 12 months, ASOS's shares have ranged in value from as little as 320.3254 up to 707.2. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (LSE average) beta is 1, while ASOS's is 2.698. This would suggest that ASOS's shares are significantly more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent a higher risk.

Valuing a stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge value. Check out the ASOS P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA
ASOS's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.6289. A PEG ratio below 1 can be interpreted as meaning the shares are not overvalued given the current rate of growth.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into ASOS's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
However, it's sensible to consider ASOS's PEG ratio in relation to those of similar companies.
Environmental, social and governance (known as ESG) criteria are a set of three factors used to measure the sustainability and social impact of companies like ASOS.
ASOS's total ESG risk: 23.86
Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and ASOS's overall score of 23.86 (as at 12/31/2018) is pretty good – landing it in it in the 29th percentile of companies rated in the same sector.
ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like ASOS is exposed to within the areas of "environmental" (carbon footprint, resource use etc.), "social" (health and safety, human rights etc.), and "governance" (anti-corruption, tax transparency etc.).
To gain some more context, you can compare ASOS's total ESG risk score against those of similar companies.
ASOS's environmental score: 6/100
ASOS's environmental score of 6 puts it squarely in the 6th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that ASOS is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
ASOS's social score: 6/100
ASOS's social score of 6 puts it squarely in the 6th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that ASOS is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.

ASOS's governance score puts it squarely in the 6th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. That could suggest that ASOS is a leader in its sector when it comes to responsible management and strategy, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
ASOS's controversy score: 2/5
ESG scores also evaluate any incidences of controversy that a company has been involved in. ASOS scored a 2 out of 5 for controversy – the second-highest score possible, reflecting that ASOS has, for the most part, managed to keep its nose clean.
