Thought of the day

The global markets are soaring. It is tempting to buy high beta stocks to make more money. But high beta stocks add volatility to the performance of your portfolio. Is this what you really want?

Focusing on steady returns is my way of looking at managing money. Morningstar has a great charting feature giving you the total return of your stocks. It is helpful to assess the strongest/weakest and more volatile/less volatile positions of your portfolio.
