Not Making the Right Investments
Investing is simple but it’s not easy, as Warren Buffet once said. As such, even if you’re investing in stocks through a 401(k) or independently with the support of a financial advisor, you need to be well-informed in order to choose what’s best for you based on your risk profile. It’s the only way your retirement portfolio can stand strong against stock market fluctuations and volatility.
A stable retirement portfolio should consist of a combination of stocks and bonds, including short-term, long-term, large-cap, mid-cap, small-cap and international as well as cash investments. Therefore, reevaluate your investments and try to diversify your portfolio by allocating assets in the right places.
