Seasoned retirement and financial strategist, Mark Kinney, says diversification can take some volatility out of your investments.

Lee, Massachusetts—November 30, 2016—Founding partner of Toole, Kinney & Company, Inc., Mark Kinney,CFP®, published a new blog entitled, “Give Yourself Added Financial Protection Through Diversification.” In the blog, he highlights how you can spread out your assets over a range of investments to reduce overall risk.

Mark writes, “Diversification doesn’t mean you can just put your portfolio on cruise control. You should still keep an eye on the overall market and the industries and funds you’re invested in. For instance, if you’re invested in an Asia Pacific fund and there’s unrest in that region of the world, consider shifting your international investments to a more stable area.”
