Don’t put all your eggs in one basket, as the old proverb goes. This is especially true when it comes to investments. It’s never a good idea to put all your money into a single investment option. For one thing, there’s a good possibility you’ll lose money if it doesn’t perform.   You can lower this risk by diversifying your investment portfolio. There are many ways to diversify your portfolio. Including many types of investments, such as low-risk and high-risk options, is one method to do this. You can also do this by diversifying your investments across different industries.
