The Importance of Diversification

By investing in a number of securities (as opposed to investing in a single security), you can profit from diversification and reduce the level of risk in your investment portfolio.


The following portfolio is a low risk portfolio built in November 2019 and tracked through the end of 2020.

The chart shows a comparison with leading indices all of which are high risk.


The portfolio achieved this high level of risk through diversification:

  • It holds a relatively high number of securities - 37 all together.

  • It holds securities from three exchanges - NYSE, NASDAQ and AMEX.

  • The securities are from 8 different sectors.
