Holdings
Holdings refer to the financial assets within an investor’s portfolio. These can encompass a range of instruments, such as stocks, bonds, derivatives, commodities, and currencies. Essentially, holdings represent ownership or investment positions, reflecting the total mix of assets held at a given time. They vary based on strategy—stocks for growth, bonds for stability, or derivatives for hedging. Tracking holdings helps assess value, risk, and performance, forming the backbone of financial planning and portfolio management for individuals or firms alike.
