Example explains Market Exposure
The exposure of a portfolio to particular securities/markets/sectors must be considered when determining asset allocation since it can greatly increase returns or, if properly done, minimizes losses. For example, a portfolio with both stocks and bonds holdings will typically have less risk than a portfolio with exposure only to stocks.
