On today’s show we’re talking about diversification. You’ve all heard the conventional wisdom. Diversify your investments and you’ll be safe.
But if we look at today’s environment, the traditional diversification doesn’t seem to be delivering the safety that investors are looking for.
If you have a percentage of your funds in the stock market, and a percentage in real estate, a percentage in bonds, some in cash, some in gold, you should be fine.
But here we are in 2023. There is stock market volatility, there is no safety to be found in the bond market, real estate prices are falling, cash is clearly devaluing given the high rate of inflation, gold makes some occasional moves, but going sideways.
On today’s show we’re going to examine the question as to whether diversification truly exists in the manner that was originally intended.
