What if

Scores a hypothetical change — add, remove or resize a holding, or add cash — through exactly the same analytics as the real portfolio.

How to use it

Test whether a new position would raise or lower volatility, concentration, beta or income before you make it.

Limitations

Uses the same constant-weight history as the rest of the page, so a new name's past behavior is assumed to describe its future role.

In Kereon
