Eating the same pizza for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day gets boring and unhealthy. But trying 50 different dishes in every single meal? That’s chaos. The sweet spot is a balanced plate, and investing works the same way.In this episode of Moneywise, we break down the real meaning of diversification and why many investors unknowingly fall into over-diversification in mutual funds. More funds nay not always mean more safety.
