Test your portfolio stress

Investors should create a game plan for their individual holdings, and an exit strategy for expanding positions. But they should also plan for a general downturn in the market. Consider what happens to your overall business portfolio. While most of your stocks may hold individually, if they are all down by 2%, 5% or more, it will affect your portfolio, especially if you are on the margin.

So test your portfolio stress. At what point are you downsizing your portfolio just because your portfolio is up to 5%, 10% or more with a weak market?

Identify your staples and short-term plays. In the event of a market downturn, cut your non-core positions first, assuming your underlying holdings are performing well.

One argument for taking some profits when the market is stretched, particularly in non-core holdings, is that this eases difficult decisions about selling on a pullback. It’s hard to sell just to watch the market bounce back. But if you don’t make any selling by the time the Nasdaq is down, say, 5%, and the market continues to decline, your capital losses may increase.
