  • You're a person with financial goals. Now determine where your finances stand. Write down your cash balance at the beginning of the year. Add your expected income for the year. Check your most recent income tax return so you are sure to include all sources of income.

  • Once you know how much money you are able to invest, determine the structure of your portfolio — that is, how much should be invested in stocks, how much in bonds, and how much should remain in cash. This apportionment of investments is known as asset allocation.

  • Keep in mind that the goal of a portfolio structured with some combination of stocks, bonds and cash is most likely to be well positioned to achieve the maximum return with the least amount of risk.

  • Dollar cost averaging is an investment strategy under which you put the same amount of money into a security at regular intervals over an extended period of time.

  • Dollar cost averaging is a great way to invest money from a paycheck or other regular income. But what if you have just received a lump sum from a pension payout or an inheritance from a relative? Should you put all of your money into mutual funds all at once or move money into mutual funds gradually as in dollar cost averaging?

  • Asset allocation is the process of your dividing investment dollars among different asset classes, such as stocks, bonds, and cash (money market securities), to seek to obtain investment returns based on your risk tolerance.

  • Here are five asset allocation and investment principles to keep in mind.

  • History has shown that leadership among market segments has changed — often dramatically — from year to year. By diversifying your equity investments among the different capitalization ranges, styles, and geographic regions, you can increase the likelihood that your portfolio will weather changes in market conditions.

  • As stock market environments change, you should reconsider your asset allocation. Your individual situation and investment goals may change. Periodic rebalancing may be necessary to help manage risk and maintain effective diversification.

  • When times are uncertain, it becomes even more important to build or maintain adequate cash reserves. An emergency fund provides you with protection in the event of temporary unemployment, a period of disability, out-of-pocket medical expenses, or other unexpected expenses.

  • Currency risk or currency exchange risk is the gain or loss from changes in the relative value of foreign currencies vs home currency. That is why currency risk is sometimes called foreign currency risk or currency exposure risk.
