Aggressive Investment Strategy
A method of portfolio management and asset allocation that attempts to achieve maximum return.
Investopedia Commentary
Because their aim is capital growth, aggressive investors place a higher percentage of their assets in equities rather than in safer debt securities. As such, aggressive investors build portfolios that bear a fairly high amount of risk. But before assuming this strategy, an investor should evaluate his or risk tolerance - making sure it's high - and be sure that he or she has quite a few years before needing the invested funds.
