Key Insights into Risk, Return and investment time horizon
Investing decisions hinge on the relationship between risk, return, and time horizon. Risk refers to potential losses or volatility, while return is the potential profit or income. The risk-return trade-off suggests that higher returns require taking on more risk, while low-risk investments typically yield lower returns. The investment time horizon—how long an investor holds an asset—also impacts strategy. Longer horizons can accommodate higher-risk investments, as there's more time to recover from market fluctuations, while shorter horizons favour conservative approaches to protect capital. Understanding these principles is essential for making informed decisions that align with financial goalshttps://youtu.be/XWd6dwExvC4
