It’s true and a fact that it is never safe to keep all your eggs in one basket. One push, or one small nudge and you’re left with a stinky mess. Now consider your investments as eggs and market turmoil as that nudge – One small push is all it takes for you to be left with a mess of endless bills and debts. Just like eggs, it is always wise to diversify your portfolio by investing in different assets and create a protective shield around your finances. Every unique investment you make performs differently depending on how the market is doing. Having this variety helps you in maintaining the balance, for instance, if there is a loss of value at one place, you have the opportunity to gain value elsewhere. Did you know? A well-diverse portfolio not only includes a mixture of stocks, fixed income (bonds), and commodities but even a few crypto assets.
