Trust us, we know how exciting it is to see your first gains, get your first dividend check, and overall feel like you\u2019re a stock market or investing wizard. But, when you place all your eggs in one basket, it only takes a single market dive or crash to reverse all your gains! *shudder* The good news is there is an investing strategy that helps mitigate the risks associated with the volatility of traditional markets: portfolio diversification. Keep reading to learn more about portfolio diversification and how you can get started.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"\"><b>What is portfolio diversification?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Diversified portfolios consist of a broad spectrum of investments with the goal of reducing the investor\u2019s risk. Examples of strategies for portfolio diversification include owning stocks from many different industries, countries, and risk profiles, in combination with other kinds of investments, like bonds, real estate, and commodities. The array of assets works in conjunction to reduce the investor\u2019s overall risk of permanent capital loss and the volatility of their portfolio. The downfall is that diversified portfolio returns are socially lower than what investors who stick with a single winning stock earn.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gain the following benefits from diversifying your portfolio:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Lessen your risk.\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you put all your money into the stock of one or two companies and they plunge, you lose all your money! Diversification is key to limiting the risk associated with these types of scenarios by choosing many different investments and kinds of investments.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Preserve capital.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Not all investors are young with plenty of time for their assets to appreciate. For investors who are close to retirement and who are trying to preserve capital, portfolio diversification is an excellent way to help protect their savings.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Generate returns.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Much to our chagrin, investments don\u2019t always perform as they\u2019re expected. When you diversify your portfolio, you stop relying on one source of income and increase your rate of return.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>How to diversify your portfolio?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To start diversifying your portfolio, try the following investing tips:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Purchase 25 or more stocks across varying industries.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This is important because if tech spending takes a dive due to a slowdown in the economy or new regulations, every single tech company you invested in is likely to plummet. This is why it\u2019s not enough to purchase 25 stocks from companies in the same industry. You must purchase stocks across industries to have a diversified portfolio.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Invest in an index fund.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> One popular index fund is the\u00a0S&amp;P 500. Index funds have a distinct advantage in that they take most of the guesswork out of investing while still offering investors instant diversification. Index funds also have low fees since investors are not paying for a fund manager\u2019s expertise.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Consider putting a portion of your portfolio into fixed-income assets, such as bonds.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This is an important step in the diversification process as it reduces a portfolio\u2019s overall returns and therefore lessens the portfolio\u2019s volatility and overall risk profile.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Go global.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> International markets bring the potential for high returns fast because these markets often move extremely quickly. A good place to start is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) or mutual fund.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Invest in real estate.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Real estate is an excellent addition to any investor\u2019s mix for a number of reasons, including the fact that it\u00a0historically increases\u00a0the total return of a portfolio while simultaneously reducing its volatility. An easy way to invest in real estate is with an online platform, like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/ark7.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ark7<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">,\u00a0that connects investors with investment properties with the click of a button. Say hello to reaping the benefits of real estate investment without having to perform landlord duties.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"\"><b>Diversifying your real estate portfolio\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s no secret that real estate is one of the most lucrative asset classes. Famous billionaire Andrew Carnegie once said that <\/span><b>90% of millionaires got their wealth by investing in real estate<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Real estate is also an excellent way for investors to diversify their portfolios. There are many different types of properties you can invest in, each with its own unique set of pros and cons.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"\"><b>Multifamily properties<\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Multifamily properties<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8221; is the term for residential housing with two or more units under one roof\u2014it\u2019s actually the least common kind of residential building. But multifamily properties attract investors because they can produce bigger cash flows than single-family rental properties do.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some of the advantages of investing in multifamily properties include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Less risk.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0The biggest risk for rental properties is the loss of income that happens when a unit is vacant. Since multifamily properties have more units, they automatically alleviate the economic loss when vacancies pop up, allowing for fewer losses for investors.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Cash flow. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Multifamily properties generate much more cash flow than single-family units do.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"\"><b>Commercial properties<\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Office buildings, shopping malls, and warehouses are all under the commercial property umbrella. Benefits of investing in commercial properties include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Less competition.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Commercial properties require a lot of work and capital from investors upfront. This makes the space far less crowded than some of the other, easier-to-acquire property types. But commercial properties are well worth the investment for smart investors who are capable of handling the workload.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Triple net leases.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Tenants pay the building\u2019s taxes, insurance, and maintenance costs in addition to their monthly rent. This cuts down on the cost for the property owner.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Cash flow.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Commercial property investors have a distinct advantage over other investors because commercial leases are typically longer than residential rentals. This allows the investor to earn a consistent and reliable income on a month-to-month basis. What\u2019s more, commercial real estate generally earns better ROI than single-family homes.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"\"><b>Final thoughts<\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Diversification is a strategy where investors choose a wide range of assets to invest in. It\u2019s a great way to help you protect your investment portfolio from risks like underperforming assets while also boosting your chances of investment growth and dividends. Diversified portfolios help your overall investment portfolio absorb shocks from any financial disruptions that may arise.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s important to remember that portfolio\u00a0diversification is not a set-it-and-forget-it, one-time deal; it requires some legwork. It\u2019s important that you keep up with your target mix to ensure it stays on track through checkups and rebalancing. Neglecting to rebalance could leave you vulnerable to missing out on gains from fluctuations in your portfolio.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To ensure a properly diversified portfolio, invest in a wide range of industries, tenures, countries, and interest plans. Don\u2019t limit your investments to one industry or sector.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As you\u2019ve likely heard by now, too much of a good thing is a good thing\u2014especially when it comes to investing.
