This is because that one particular stock may perform poorly or well and the same can happen with the other stocks that are related to it and any risk diversifications are minimal. On the other hand, when the individual stocks in the portfolio have low or negative correlation, the portfolio becomes more and more diversified as the gains in one stock may be offset by the losses in the other, thereby reducing the general risk of the portfolio.<\/span><\/span><a name=\"_GoBack\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Which of the following is a true statement about diversification?
