3 Key Points:

1. Diversify and invest in as many assets classes as you can since no one knows what would be the best asset from now onwards.
2. It will be very difficult to outperform the markets so the best solution is to simply replicate the market.
3. By identifying your own risk tolerance, you can decide the type of portfolio you would want to have and can know your expected returns.
