Investment diversification is a risk management strategy that involves spreading investments across various financial assets, sectors, or geographical regions to reduce exposure to any single asset or group of assets. The primary goal of diversification is to mitigate the impact of poor performance of any one investment on the overall portfolio. By holding a mix of uncorrelated assets, investors can potentially achieve more stable returns and lower volatility. This approach is based on the principle that different assets often react differently to market events, and when one investment is underperforming, another may be performing well, balancing out overall performance. Diversification can be implemented through various means such as investing in different asset classes (stocks, bonds, real estate), sectors (technology, healthcare, energy), and geographical areas (domestic and international markets). While diversification does not eliminate risk entirely, it can significantly reduce it, making it a fundamental concept in investment strategy.
