While we try to provide as much information as possible, we are not able to provide specific investment advice.
When it comes to investing, having a mix of different investments can help reduce risk and protect your portfolio from losing value (or money) all at the same time, especially if there is a downturn in the markets. The right mix is different for each individual and situation, but it could include a variety of stocks, bonds, cash and other investments in different industries, countries or asset class. Check out some tips to be a smart investor.
It is also important to make sure the individuals and companies you are going to for investments and advice are qualified. Speak to a registered financial advisor to learn what mix of investments and investing strategy may be right for you.
