4 Ways to Manage Investment Risk  Reply with quote  

Here are a few ways to manage your investment risk:



1. Diversification

One of the best ways to manage investment risk is to diversify your portfolio. Instead of putting all of your money into one company, you need to spread your money around. By investing in many different companies within different sectors of the market, you are going to be able to lower the overall risk of your portfolio.



2. Asset Allocation

Within your portfolio, you also need to utilize asset allocation. This is a concept that deals with how you divide your money up between the different types of asset classes. When you practice asset allocation, you need to stick to a specific percentage of each type of security.



3. Research

Another way that you can manage your investment risk is to research. Before you put money into any investment, you need to make sure that you have thoroughly researched it. In order to be a successful investor, you need to spend a good amount of time researching every investment that you are considering putting your money into. By using careful research, you can potentially lower the amount of risk that is inherent when you invest in a particular security.



4. Watch Your Portfolio

Another way that you can potentially lower the amount of risk in your portfolio is to watch it carefully. Many investors do not pay attention to what is going on with their investments and end up losing money as a result. If you will pay careful attention to what is going on with your investments, you can adjust your investment strategy if it starts to perform poorly. This will help you lower the overall risk and bring in higher returns.

Perhaps the link was thier attribution. I use to do that with joke of the day threads. Perhaps I still do;) Though lately I toss up my own jokes more so I don't need to attribution.

I agree with you and all of your points, but especially diversification is most important for me. According to me diversification is a best way to control your trading risk as well as trading or investing safely. If an investor invested his money in diversified portfolio then he will make profit from the market. The chances of profit are high in this case.

One of the way to manage our investment risk is avoiding unnecessary Taxes. Many investors ignore the tax-free growth and tax-free distributions unique to a Roth IRA while maximizing their contributions in their employer’s tax-deferred accounts. Because of compounding and the absence of taxation, investor’s wealth grows exponentially exposing them and their beneficiaries to a potentially enormous tax obligation in the future.

Great tips! Diversification and Allocation are really good options. At least if you fail in one investment, you still have other financial sources from other investments

Use options to reduce investment risk  Reply with quote  

One way to reduce risk in investing is to use options rather than or in addition to stock. There are several risk reduction strategies, but one that I am particularly fond of is discussed in the free report referenced in my sig below or at GetWealthDirection.com.
