Investing Basics
What is the stock market?
The stock market is a collection of markets where shares of publicly traded companies are issued and traded. It serves as a platform for investors to buy and sell stocks, providing liquidity and enabling companies to raise capital for growth and development.
What is a stock?
A stock is a type of security that represents ownership in a company. By purchasing stocks, you are essentially buying a small piece of that company. Stocks can provide returns in the form of capital appreciation and dividends.
What are ETFs and how do they differ from stocks?
ETFs, or Exchange Traded Funds, are investment funds that are traded on exchanges like stocks. Unlike individual stocks, an ETF holds a collection of assets, which can include stocks, bonds, or commodities. This allows investors to diversify their portfolio without having to buy multiple individual stocks.
Investment Strategies
What is a diversified portfolio?
A diversified portfolio is an investment strategy that involves spreading investments across various asset classes, sectors, and geographies to reduce risk. By diversifying, you can mitigate the impact of a poor-performing asset on your overall portfolio.
Should I invest actively or passively?
Active investing involves frequently buying and selling securities based on market trends, while passive investing focuses on a long-term buy-and-hold strategy. The choice between the two depends on your investment goals, risk tolerance, and the amount of time you are willing to dedicate to monitoring your investments.
How do I determine my risk tolerance?
Your risk tolerance is influenced by factors such as your investment goals, financial situation, and how you react to market fluctuations. We recommend using our risk assessment tool to help you gauge your comfort level with risk and to guide your investment decisions accordingly.

What is margin trading?
Margin trading allows investors to borrow funds to purchase additional securities, effectively amplifying their buying power. While it can enhance returns, it also comes with increased risk, as losses can also be magnified.
What are options trading and futures?
Options trading involves buying or selling contracts that give you the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an underlying asset at a predetermined price before a specific expiration date. Futures, on the other hand, are contracts to buy or sell an asset at a future date for a price agreed upon today. Both options and futures can offer significant leverage but also involve considerable risk.

Yes, Regifolio offers robo-advisory services that utilize algorithms and technology to manage your portfolio based on your risk tolerance and investment goals. This service provides you with a hands-off investment experience tailored to your needs.
