Missed opportunities and gradual neglect often whittle away long-term investment returns. Common mistakes include:
  • Failing to identify hidden costs in mutual funds and managed accounts caused by portfolio turnover, overhead expenses, and brokerage commissions.
  • Overestimating one's ability to tolerate unsettling market dislocations.
  • Failing to optimize asset placement in taxable and tax-deferred accounts.
  • Missing opportunities to prune investment risk and offset gains through management techniques such as rebalancing and tax-loss harvesting.
  • Failing to hedge concentrated stock positions.
