Get familiar with the fundamentals of investing, including risk vs. reward, diversification, and asset allocation.

What is diversification and asset allocation?

Every investor should begin with these two key ideas.

Diversification can be summed up with the familiar phrase: "Don't put all your eggs in one basket." Including different types of investments in your portfolio may help reduce your losses if one type—stocks, for example—take a hit when other investments like bonds remain steady or go up.

Investors achieve diversification through a process called asset allocation, which simply means figuring out how your funds will be spread among different types of investments, such as stocks, bonds, and cash. Diversification may reduce risk, but investors also want to earn a return, and so they need to strike a balance between risk and reward. Lower risk investments carry less chance of a loss but typically provide lower returns. Investors seeking higher returns typically must take on greater risk.

The key to choosing how conservative or aggressive you should be is to gauge your risk tolerance, next up...

Understanding your risk tolerance

This tool illustrates the tradeoff between risk and reward that lies at the heart of investing.
Pay close attention to the "Worst 12 months" figure in the lower right. Would you be comfortable if your investments lost that much in a year? Would you change your investments or stay the course?

This is what investment advisers mean by risk tolerance: it's about how much risk is appropriate and comfortable for you. Keep in mind, your risk tolerance will likely change over time as your age, life circumstances, and financial situation change.
