Most Investors Fail the Diversification Test

from The Investor Coaching Show with Paul Winkler · host The Investor Coaching Show

Today, Paul shares some research that shows over 80% of investors near retirement have portfolios that lack diversification and that most investors equate large U.S. companies and cash with safety. The problem is that portfolios like these can be very difficult to take an income from and leave you vulnerable to market fluctuations. Listen along as Paul explains why a financial advisor can help teach the academic principles behind building a portfolio and why most fund companies don’t even sell funds that help investors make sure they are capturing market returns and minimizing risk.    Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?
