asset allocation

Investment mix strategy

Asset allocation is the distribution of investments across different categories—stocks, bonds, real estate, cash—to balance risk and reward according to an investor's goals and timeline.

A young investor might favor aggressive allocation weighted toward stocks; someone near retirement typically shifts toward bonds.

My financial advisor recommended adjusting my asset allocation.
