Abstract

Increased awareness of asset allocation is a positive development in the world of investing. Asset allocation is a crucial investment strategy that involves dividing an investor's portfolio among different asset classes, such as stocks, bonds, cash, real estate, and commodities. The goal of asset allocation is to balance the risk and return of an investment portfolio by diversifying across different types of assets with varying levels of risk and return potential.
