Risk

A risk level 6 investor should be prepared to accept annual returns somewhere within the range of a -18.43% loss and a 30.20% gain — returns within this range would be expected 95% of the time. It should be remembered that there is a 5% chance that a risk level 6 portfolios will experience an annual return outside this range — this means an investor may experience losses greater than -18.43% or gains greater than 30.20% at some point(s) during their investment in one year
