It's official: You can reduce your investment risk simply by chucking darts at a list of stocks, then buying them. That's if you believe a Nobel economist, of course. His crude "experiment" was the start of "modern portfolio theory" decades ago. The downside, however, was that with a reduction of risk came a dampening of profits. So scratch that idea.[More...]
