That being said, if you seek an upside with less volatility than holding an individual stock, consider the High Quality Portfolio. It has comfortably outperformed its benchmark—a combination of the S&P 500, Russell, and S&P MidCap indexes—and has achieved returns exceeding 105% since its inception. Why is that? As a group, HQ Portfolio stocks provided better returns with less risk versus the benchmark index; less of a roller-coaster ride, as evident in HQ Portfolio performance metrics.

What Is Stock-Specific Risk If The Market Crashes?
That said, TTD isn’t immune to steep sell-offs. It plunged about 36% during the 2018 correction, took a hit of over 54% in the Covid crash, and fell more than 64% amid the inflation shock. Even outside major crashes, the dips can be sharp. It’s a reminder — no matter the positives, steep pullbacks happen when markets turn sour.
But the risk is not limited to major market crashes. Stocks fall even when markets are in good shape – think events like earnings, business updates, and outlook changes. Read TTD Dip Buyer Analyses to see how the stock has recovered from sharp dips in the past.
Investing in a single stock without comprehensive analysis can be risky. Consider the Trefis Reinforced Value (RV) Portfolio, which has outperformed its all-cap stocks benchmark (combination of the S&P 500, S&P mid-cap, and Russell 2000 benchmark indices) to produce strong returns for investors. Why is that? The quarterly rebalanced mix of large-, mid-, and small-cap RV Portfolio stocks provided a responsive way to make the most of upbeat market conditions while limiting losses when markets head south, as detailed in RV Portfolio performance metrics.
