Getting Risk Right

Cy Lynch is our special guest as he summarizes his discussions about the real meaning of risk … and the effects that misunderstandings have on academia, investors and financial professionals.

Most investors seeking maximum return while minimizing risk. Unfortunately, “risk” is usually equated with volatility. For long-term investors, volatility presents opportunity. Join us as we debunk the volatility is the same as risk myth, see how treating them the same makes it harder to reach your goals and consider alternative definitions of risk.

This session is co-sponsored by the Mid-Michigan chapter of the National Association of Investors — Better Investing.

Future Topics

We are discussing a number of topics with presenters and are open to suggestions from all of you. As an example, we’re hoping that Hugh McManus will develop some thoughts about lessons learned and we’re considering a few sessions that explore and learn from investing legends. We’ll also present the “chapters” of the user’s guide as we issue the revised version of that resource. Clubs have expressed an interest in rekindling “Dashboard Diagnostics” and we’ll be building those sessions again soon.
