This week we’ll continue talking about investing from a beginner’s perspective. Last week we used the accessible charts in the Yahoo Finance app to show how the price of an individual stock can drastically change over time. This week we’ll talk about how diversifying, or investing in multiple stocks, can smooth out some of those fluctuations and reduce your risk. We’ll also talk about how exchange-traded funds and mutual funds can save you time by investing your money in hundreds of stocks at the same time. We’ll use the accessible charts in the Yahoo Finance app to look at some popular funds and learn how they’ve performed in the past.
