A-2a Portfolio Management "How can I choose the right investment?" That's a good question! Unfortunately, there are no easy answers because your investment goals, age, tolerance for risk, and financial resources are different from those of the next person. To help you decide what investment is right for you, consider the following: Stocks have returned on average almost 10 percent a year over a long period of time. In fact, returns for stocks are well ahead of inflation, and the returns for bonds, real estate, and other investments. Therefore, why not just invest all your money in stocks or mutual funds that invest in stocks? After all, they offer the largest potential return. In reality, stocks may have a place in every investment portfolio, but there is more to investing than just picking a bunch of stocks or mutual funds that invest in stocks. A-2b Asset Allocation, the Time Factor, and Your Age Asset allocation is the process of spreading your money among several different types of investments to lessen risk. Although the term asset allocation is a fancy way of saying it, simply put, it really means you need to diversify and avoid the pitfall of putting all of your eggs in one basket-a common mistake made by investors. Asset allocation is often expressed in percentages. For example, what percentage of my assets do I want to put in stocks and mutual funds? What percentage do I want to put in more conservative investments such as CDs and government bonds? In reality, the answers to these questions are determined by:o The time your investments have to work for you 0 Your age . Your investment objectives 0 Your ability to tolerate risk 0 How much you can save and invest each year a . The dollar value of your current investments . The economic outlook for the economy 0 Several other factors Two factorsthe time your investments have to work for you and your ageare so important they deserve special attention. The time Factor The amount of time you have before you need your investment money is crucial. If you can leave your investments alone and let them work for ve to ten years or more, then you can invest in stocks, mutual funds, and real estate. 0n the other hand, if you need your investment money in two years, yet} probably should invest in short-term government bonds, highly rated corporate bonds, or CD5. By taking a more conservative approach for short- term investments, you reduce the possibility of having to sell your investments at a loss because of depressed market value or a staggering economy. For example, during an economic crisis, many retirees may be forced to sell stocks and mutual funds to pay everyday living expenses and may lose money on their investments. 0n the other hand, many young investors with long- M AAl 1 AA You also should consider your age when developing an investment program. Younger investors tend to invest a large percentage of their nest egg in growth-oriented investments. On the other hand, older investors tend to choose more conservative investments. As a result, a smaller percentage of their nest egg is placed in growth-oriented investments. While no investor regardless of age likes to lose money on an investment, the fact is that younger investors have more time for an investment to recover its original value and even increase in value. How much of your portfolio should be in growth-oriented investments? Many financial experts suggest that you subtract your age from 100, and the difference is the percentage of your assets that should be invested in growth investments. For example, if you are 30 years old, subtract 30 from 100, which gives you 70. Therefore, 70 percent of your assets should be invested in growth- oriented investments, whereas the remaining 30 percent should be kept in safer conservative investments. A-2c Your Role in the Investment Process Investors want large returns, yet they are often unwilling to invest the time required to become a good investor. They would not buy a car without a test drive or purchase a home without comparing different homes, but for some unknown reason they invest without doing their homework. The suggestions given here will help you choose investments that will increase in value. . Evaluate potential investments. Keep in mind that successful investors evaluate their investments before making investment decisions. Often, it is useful to keep copies of the material you used to evaluate each investment. Then, when it is time to re-evaluate an existing investment, you will know where to begin your search for current information. Much of the information in this Appendix in the section "Sources of Investment Information" will help you learn how to evaluate different investment opportunities
