Risk in investment can be defined as the possibility that the investor may
lose a big portion or all of the initial investment or make very high returns
in a short period. Risk which is often likened to volatility dictates that
the higher the volatility the higher the chances of returns. Speculative
investments such as leveraged ETFs(commodities such as gold, oil, silver),
