This is called correlation risk, where  holdings move in the same direction. Usually, this happens because the equity is in the same sector, or there are connections between industries. A good diversified portfolio will have negative correlation, meaning that two variable move in opposite directions, mitigating downside. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wealthica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/portfolio-analysis-holdingsbreakdown.png\" alt=\"Portfolio analysis holdingsbreakdown\" title=\"portfolio-analysis-holdingsbreakdown.png\" border=\"0\" width=\"850\" height=\"265\" class=\"responsive\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The portfolio analysis reports on the risk exposure to different regional stock markets.
