What does it mean to rebalance my portfolio?
Rebalancing means adjusting your investments to bring them back to your original target allocation.
Example:
If you originally chose:
- 50% stocks
- 50% bonds
Over time, market performance might shift your portfolio to:
- 70% stocks
- 30% bonds
Rebalancing would involve moving money from stocks into bonds to return to your 50/50 target.
Rebalancing helps:
- Maintain your intended risk level
- Keep your portfolio aligned with your long-term goals
Many plans offer automatic rebalancing options.
