Summary: | "Investors have access to a vast array of assets with which to form portfolios, ranging from individual securities to broadly diversified funds. The first order of business is to organize this massive opportunity set into a manage- able set of choices. If investors stratify their opportunity set at too granular a level, they will struggle to process the mass of information required to make informed decisions.
