Investment Diversification – Is There a Magic Formula?
If you’ve been investing your money for some time—or at least studying up on the subject—you’re no doubt aware of the importance of diversification. The purpose of diversification is to reduce the risk inherent in investing, which improves investment performance (by minimizing losses) in the long term. Coming up with the right diversification formula then seems like a critical component of any investment plan.
And it is. But the open question is, which formula? No one claims that investment diversification is an exact science, but there are at least a couple of models that have become so common that they’re assumed to be winners.
Fixed allocation. In this model you set a specific allocation, say 60% stocks, 30% bonds, 10% cash, and keep it no matter what happens. Through bull markets and bear markets, you stay faithful to the diversification plan, rebalancing periodically to make sure that you don’t become “overweight” in any one investment class. The advantage of a set allocation is that it imposes discipline on your investment habits in that you’re much less likely to make investment decisions based on emotional factors.
