Which type of investment portfolio do I have?

An investment portfolio is a collection of assets, it’s all your invested assets determined by some personal criteria and investors’ believes.

You have to set up an investment portfolio, but how can you do that?

You have to know how much money you are going to spend, for how much time you are willing to make money investment, what is your style, and which type of investment fits better in your situation.

What about the budget?

It doesn’t matter you don’t have much money in your bank account because you can simply invest a small amount of money, like $100,00 for example. Although, it’s important to have an emergency fund first. You never know when will happen something bad to you or your family, so it’s extremely recommended to have a cash reserve in your bank account.

If you already have an emergency fund, then you should analyze how much money you would like to spend investing. It’s recommended for money advisors to diversify your money investment through different types of investments.

What about my style?

There’re three types of investment portfolio: conservative, moderate, and aggressive.

How should I know which one is my style? By making an online test on the platform you’re going to invest money.

Conservative portfolio: This group is for those who don’t want to make big risks and want to feel safe by making money investments. They feel better in their comfort zone.

Moderate portfolio: This group is in the middle, sometimes they may prefer to take risks, and sometimes they don’t. They prioritize money safety, although they are willing to take risks.

Aggressive portfolio: Those people don’t have fear of losing money because they are willing to take risks in order to make much money. The higher the risk is, the higher is the chance of gaining money.

What are the different types of investments?

There are many types of investments. Recently new ones have become big famous all around the world such as NFT who stands for non-fungible token. There are traditional types of investments and there are the new ones that have become a huge market.

1- Stocks

Stocks are individual shares that are a tiny slice of ownership in a company. You can buy and sell stocks. Investors buy stocks that they believe will increase and raise more value over time. There is the risk of losing money, so you have to be careful with your choice.

Always choose a company that you trust, make research about it, see the previous status and if they are going to make changes in the company.

2- Bonds

For those who prefer a safer investment, this one is better than the last one. It doesn’t take many risks. Although, it has lower returns. Bonds are loans from companies and governments that get paid back over time with interest. This is a fixed-income investment.

3- Mutual Funds

This type of investment has less risky than stocks. They can be passively and actively managed, those ones that are actively managed have higher fees and don’t often return better investments than passively managed. Mutual funds can deliver higher returns than individual stocks because of the safety and wide range of diverse funds.

4- Cryptocurrency 

Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin have become extremely famous in the last year and made some random people rich. This type of investment has been suffering many ups and downs. It’s a common investment for those ones who have an aggressive portfolio because it can be very risky. Cryptocurrency is based on blockchain, a revolutionary technology that is reinventing the financial market.

5- NFT (Non-fungible Token)

Sometimes this investment might seem absurd, especially for conservative people. NFT stands for Non-fungible Token which can be anything digital based on blockchain, and each one of them is unique that’s why it is so valuable.

Would you ever think it possible to sell a meme for billions of dollars? To sell a digital masterpiece for millions?

Well, it is possible! Thank again to blockchain!

There’s no other investment like this one.
