Volatility and risk aren’t the same thing.
@analyst lol more of measure of risk than a type, but I digress
This assumption is not unreasonable but too narrow to apply to all the investments.
Yes that is the only way to quantify risk I believe.
What about credit rating?
They are correlated. But not the same
Volatility diminishes with theta.
Theta increases other risks such as credit risk and default risk.
Returns can decline without volatility- theoretically
I created a diagram which I use to illustrate how investing works.
I draw a large triangle on a paper. One side I lable safe, one side I lable liquid, and one side I lable high return. Then I tell the prospect/client that they can place their portfolio anywhere in the triangle they want to, being mindful of where it lands relative to each attribute.
Investors have to quantify where they personally become uncomfortable with loss. Could be percentage and could be dollar figure. Until they experience it I don’t think they really know.
Market Volatility is one of the components of risk - not the sole component.
