In finance , an investment strategy is a set of rules, behaviors or procedures, designed to guide an investor s selection of an investment Portfolio finance portfolio . Usually the strategy will be designed around the investor s risk return tradeoff some investors will prefer to maximize expected returns by investing in risky assets, others will prefer to minimize risk, but most will select a strategy somewhere in between. Passive management Passive strategies are often used to minimize transaction cost s, and active management active strategies such as market timing are an attempt to maximize returns. One of the better known investment strategies is buy and hold . Buy and hold is a long term investment strategy, based on the concept that in the long run equity market s give a good rate of return despite periods of Volatility finance volatility or decline. A purely passive variant of this strategy is indexing where an investor buys a small proportion of all the shares in a market index such as the S&P 500 , or more likely, in a mutual fund called an index fund or an exchange traded fund ETF . This viewpoint also holds that market timing , that one can enter the market on the lows and sell on the highs, does not work or does not work for small investors, so it is better to simply buy and hold.
