Vanguard's 4 investing principles

Goals

Setting clear investment goals is key to turning your financial aspirations into reality. By defining what you're working toward, you can better align your savings and investment strategy to support it over time.

Balance

Keeping a balanced, diversified portfolio helps manage risk and smooth out market ups and downs. By spreading investments across asset types, sectors, and regions, you can reduce volatility and stay aligned with your comfort level.

Cost

While market returns can be unpredictable, one thing you can control is cost. Minimizing taxes and investment fees, like expense rations and transaction charges—helps preserve more of your returns over time.

Discipline

Staying disciplined is key to successful investing. Once you've set your goals and built a solid plan, sticking with it over time, especially throught market ups and downs—can make all the difference in reaching your objectives.
