Risk vs Return Perspective

 Understanding Risk-Return TradeOff

TradeOff Risk-Rett is a trading principle that connects high risk with high prize. If an investor has the ability to invest in the long-term equity, which gives potential investors to recover from the Bear Market risk and participate in the bull market, while if an investor can only invest in a short period of time, the same equity has a higher risk proposition .

In investing, risk and return are very correlated. Increased potential return investment usually runs along with an increased risk. Various types of risks include projects specific risks, industrial specific risks, competitive risks, international risks, and market risk. Return refers to the benefits or losses made from security trade.

Diversification allows investors to reduce the overall risk associated with their portfolio but can limit potential returns. Making investments in just one market sector, if the sector significantly outperforms the market as a whole, resulting in a superior return, but if this sector decreases then you may experience a lower return than that can be achieved with a broad portfolio.

Stocks, bonds and mutual funds are the most common investment products. All have a higher risk and return that has the potential to be higher than savings products. For decades, investments that have provided the highest average return rate are shares. But there is no guarantee of profit when you buy shares, which makes the stock of one of the most risky investments. If a company does not succeed or falls from assistance with investors, the stock can fall in price, and investors can lose money.

You can make money in two ways from having stock. First, the stock price can rise if the company does it well; This increase is called capital gain or appreciation. Second, the company sometimes pays a portion of the benefits to shareholders, with payments called dividends.

Bonds generally provide higher returns with higher risks than savings, and lower returns than stocks. But the promises of bond publishers to pay the principal generally make bonds less risky than shares. Unlike shareholders, bondholders know how much money they expect to be accepted, unless the bond issuer states bankruptcy or out of business. In the event, bondholders can lose money. But if there is money left, the corporate bond holder will get it before the shareholders.

The risk of investing in mutual funds is determined by the underlying risk of shares, bonds and other investments held by the fund. There is no mutual fund that can guarantee the return, and there is no risk-free mutual fund.

Always remember: the greater the potential return, the greater the risk. One protection against risk is time, and that is what young people have. On whatever day the stock market can go up or down. Sometimes it falls for months or years. But for years, investors who have adopted a "buy and resistance" approach to invest tend to come out in front of those who try to regulate market time.
