Basics
What is portfolio?
All the investments you own.
Explained in more detail
Your portfolio is the full collection of what you hold: shares, mutual funds, ETFs, gold, everything. Looking at the whole portfolio matters more than looking at any single holding.
An example
For instanceThree stocks, one index fund and some gold together make up one portfolio.
Why this matters to you
You will meet this word in broker apps, company results and market news. Knowing what it means is not the goal on its own. The goal is being able to judge whether a number is good or bad for the investment you are actually holding.
On AlphaVik, any time portfolio appears in a view or a lesson, you can hover or tap the word and this explanation comes with it. You never have to leave the page to look something up.
