Tax-loss harvesting
We look at possible solutions for investors to make prudent use of unrealized losses to lower their tax liabilities.
Allocating to commodities can potentially help investors enhance diversification in a traditional portfolio. Commodities have a low correlation to equities and fixed income, which means that they may help reduce overall volatility and provide differentiated sources of returns. At abrdn, we focus on commodities through three different lenses:
Precious metals
Broad commodities
Industrial metals
Precious metals
In this subset of the broader commodities universe, we look at gold, silver, platinum and palladium, which have a multitude of uses that run the gamut from jewelry to car exhaust systems. An allocation to precious metals could help improve core risk management, increase portfolio efficiency and serve as a “true alternative” investment.
