Asset Allocation
You've heard the saying, "don’t put all your eggs in one basket." Well, that sums up asset allocation. It is the process of diversifying your money among different types of investments such as stocks, bonds, real estate and cash. Asset allocation is one of the most basic principles of investing. While it cannot guarantee positive performance, it does help you balance risk and reward, diversify your holdings, and plan for the long term.
