Pro Tips for Portfolio Cash Percentage
- Target cash allocation varies by individual risk tolerance, market outlook, and time horizon — there's no universal correct percentage.
- Track this over time to ensure your actual allocation matches your intended investment strategy, since market movements can drift a portfolio's cash percentage over time.
Common Portfolio Cash Percentage Mistakes to Avoid
- Letting portfolio drift change your cash percentage significantly without noticing, since market gains in other holdings can passively shrink your cash percentage over time even without any cash withdrawals.
