Crypto Crash: Is Your Portfolio Diversified Enough?

How to create a well-balanced portfolio (that outperforms) …

Crypto has crashed with Bitcoin having fallen 30% in just a few weeks.  The wider Crypto space has plunged even more.

Bitcoin’s prior strong gains for 2025 have been erased and Bitcoin is now down this year.

Meanwhile, well-balanced portfolios have barely noticed.  Our GPI portfolios are up 11-15% this year (which includes a bit of Bitcoin and the recent decline in US tech/Ai stocks).

And yes, my investor community and I do own Crypto!  As i showed here, we own it as a ‘Satellite’, making our portfolios balanced with reduced volatility.

How Steady becomes Spectacular … 

Successful investors don’t need to be heavy in a single asset class – whether it’s Crypto, property, or even stocks. In fact they shouldn’t be heavy in any.

This Crypto volatility is a reminder that sustainable growth depends on how your portfolio is set up.  Not the performance of any single asset.

In other words:  it’s not really about what you invest in.  It’s much more about how you invest.

The best, sustainable portfolios include Growth, Protection and Income assets.  That’s how our proven set-and-forget GPI Portfolio is designed.  It’s simple to set up.  And it works.

A GPI portfolio doesn’t always gain in a straight line.  But over time it grows steadily and surely.

Steady returns may not sound exciting but the end-result is spectacular.

How?  

Steady returns x Compounded = Spectacular … over time.

Which is how 90% of Warren Buffett’s wealth got created after he turned 50. 

The Magic of Compounding

This compounding illustration shows how an initial investment of £100k, plus £300 pm, becomes £1m over 25 years, assuming market growth of 8% pa.

But observe the real magic here.  

Notice the curve accelerating upwards, in an exponential way?  That’s exactly how investments compound in reality (and how Warren Buffett’s wealth grew over time).

Why is it exponential like this?

Because it’s not just the original capital that grows, but also the ‘children’ that grew from that capital.  And then the children’s children etc etc!  This grows your wealth in a way that’s hard to imagine, but it’s spectacular.

How do we make this happen?

Nothing complex or special is required.  We need three things:

1. A well-balanced portfolio (for steady returns)
2. Time (and patience)
3. Minimise Leakages (Fees, taxes)
