Asset - Property with a market value that can be sold for cash. This can include stocks, bonds, real estate, and privately held stock. Liquid assets can be sold quickly, while illiquid (or long-term) assets, such as real estate or a small business, usually take some time to sell.
Asset Allocation - A strategy for balancing risk within a portfolio. A predetermined percentage of investment dollars is placed in financial products that preserve principal. The remaining investment dollars are placed in financial products that seek growth. The goal is to achieve for the portfolio the highest expected return without taking on more risk than the investor wants to accept.
Asset Class - A group of assets with similar risk and reward characteristics. Cash, debt instruments, real estate, and equities are all examples of asset classes. Within a general asset class, such as equities, there are more specific asset classes such as large and small companies and domestic and international companies.
