The most common strategy is to diversify the investment portfolio &#8211; in other words, don&#8217;t put all of your eggs in one basket. To further mitigate risk, however, implement sound tactical and dynamic investment strategies rather than the traditional &#8220;BUY AND HOLD&#8221; strategies. Tactical strategies can add stability and predictability to your investment portfolio &#8211; reduce exposure to market downturns and preserve your wealth. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure
