How to Diversify Our Portfolio

1. Maintain a balanced of assets: -

That is, don't put all of your eggs in one basket. You can reduce your risk of losing money by spreading your assets investments over a variety of different commodities and commodity-related securities.

2. Do not Invest too much of your money in commodities: -

In general, investors are advised to only have about 10% of their total assets invested in commodities. Any more introduces your portfolio to unnecessary risk that can be reduced by staying in safer areas of the market.

3. Rebalance your portfolio In Time to Time: -

While many attempt to time the market, research shows that this approach is rarely successful over the long-term. Instead, examine your allocation 1-2 times per year to determine if rebalancing is warranted. That is, sell from those holdings which have a gain and buy shares of those which have lost value. Doing so, achieves selling high and buying low as well as keeping your portfolio in balance and profitable.

4. Spread the Wealth:-

Equities can be wonderful, but don't put all of your money in one stock or one sector. Consider creating your own virtual mutual fund by investing in a handful of companies you know, trust and even use in your day-to-day life.

But stocks aren't just the only thing to consider. You can also invest in commodities, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), and real estate investment trusts (REITs). And don't just stick to your own home base. Think beyond it and go global. This way, you'll spread your risk around, which can lead to bigger rewards.
