Constructing a well-diversified portfolio is very similar to building a well-rounded baseball team.
Assets must be distributed between current players and prospects to field a strong lineup while also investing in the future to fill any foreseeable gaps and improve key positions.
Venture Capital aligns closely with the logic of investing in prospects. The benefit is deferred, but if done correctly, there may be outsized returns and general production relative to the initial investment outlay.
This must be carried out systematically and diligently to maintain the balance between the present and the future and optimize short and intermediate-term competitiveness while also reaching for a brighter future.
