Diversification and Asset Allocation

Real diversification is not three mutual fund accounts that all move together. It's holding assets that tend to react differently to market conditions.

What it is

Real diversification, in Kyle's words, is not three mutual fund accounts that all move together. It is holding assets that tend to react differently to market conditions, which may help manage portfolio volatility as you stop adding to the pile.

Who it helps

Anyone whose portfolio looks diversified on paper but is actually several accounts that move together, especially as they get closer to living off those savings rather than adding to them.

How Kyle approaches it

Kyle reviews what you actually hold, not just how many accounts you have, and looks for assets that respond differently to the same conditions.

Important information

Diversification and asset allocation do not ensure a profit or protect against loss in declining markets.
