Why Diversify

There are plenty of reasons why you should diversify your investments, but in this post your going to be reading about the advantages of diversification.

Diversification is the practice of spreading your investments around.

ONE ADVANTAGE

The first advantage of diversification is when you diversify your stocks or money you are able to take advantage of growth opportunities in different sectors of the market.

You don’t have to know which stock to pick you just have to know which industry is going where. Once you figure that out, you can simply purchase a Mutual Fund, ETF, or Index Fund that is already diverse in that particular industry.

SECOND ADVANTAGE

The second advantage of diversification is that when you diversify your stocks or money it keeps you stable during tough times. With this pandemic, businesses are going under and investors that aren’t diversified are losing money.

Since I knew businesses are being affected during this pandemic, I invested in gold when the shutdown occurred which saved my investments.

When one sector goes down there is always another sector that is going to be prospering, you just have to diversify.

THIRD ADVANTAGE

The third advantage of diversification is knowledge. When one sector or industry is going down that’s your trigger into buying either one good business or one outstanding ETF in that struggling sector.

Now each time you log on your brokerage account, if your diversified enough, you should see where the market is headed. You can see which sector has gain momentum and where to put more money.
