"Diversification is the only free lunch in investing." - Harry Markowitz
From the Nobel Prize-winning economist who developed Modern Portfolio Theory, emphasizing how allocating across asset classes can reduce risk. Note: There is no guarantee that a diversified portfolio will enhance overall returns or outperform a non-diversified portfolio. Diversification does not protect against market risk. Asset allocation does not ensure a profit or protect against a loss.
