Investments: Managing Risk and Return
Originally published: https://nevadabusiness.com/2026/05/investments-managing-risk-return/
Visiting a financial advisor in the 20th century typically meant choosing which stocks and bonds to put in your portfolio. Investments today range from these traditional vehicles to real estate, private equity, precious metals, and even Bitcoins and NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens). Since each option carries its own risks and rewards, financial advisors must be familiar with a wide range of investment opportunities.
“Stocks are a growth engine, but investors must be able to weather volatility and bear markets,” said Brian Loy, managing director of the Reno office of Wealthspire, a national company with more than $580 billion in assets under management or advisement. “Just about every two years, the market is going to fall 10 percent, and about every six years it’s likely to have a 25 percent decline,” he explained. “You have to hang in there when your wealth seems to temporarily disappear. Bonds are great because they can add income and ballast, but they face interest rate risk.” Simply put, when interest rates rise, new bonds with higher yields become more attractive, lowering the market value of older, lower-yielding bonds.
