A Blend of Growth and Value Investing
Combine growth assets with those that generate income.
Invest in large and small companies, as well as in firmly-established
and new companies.
Consider investing in companies that presently may be un-
popular but have potential to rise in value.
Effective blending may protect against market volatility.

seem to be trading at bargain prices, below their
perceived value.
