Glossary
Portfolio
A portfolio is the complete collection of your financial investments — stocks, bonds, mutual funds, ETFs, real estate, and other assets. Your portfolio's composition determines your risk exposure and expected returns.
Why it matters
Most people's investments are scattered across old 401(k)s, IRAs, brokerage accounts, and maybe a spouse's accounts. Without seeing the full picture, you can't know your true asset allocation, total fees, or concentration risk. A unified portfolio view is essential for making informed investment decisions.
Example
A well-constructed portfolio for a 35-year-old might include: 60% U.S. stocks, 20% international stocks, 15% bonds, and 5% REITs, spread across a 401(k), Roth IRA, and taxable brokerage account.
