Risk vs Return

What does this tell me? This chart plots each sector by two things: how much it returned (up = better, on the Y-axis) and how bumpy the ride was (right = wilder swings, on the X-axis). The best spot is the upper-left corner — high return with low volatility. What should I do with this? Upper-left = sweet spot. These sectors gave you the most return per unit of risk. They're the efficient performers. Lower-right = danger zone. High volatility but low return means you took big risks for little reward. Think twice before overweighting these. Check the Return/Risk number in the cards below. Higher is better — it tells you how much return you got for each unit of risk. Match your comfort level. If wild swings stress you out, lean towards sectors on the left side of the chart, even if their returns are slightly lower. Remember: Higher returns almost always come with higher risk. The goal isn't to avoid all risk — it's to make sure you're being properly rewarded for the risk you take.
