Portfolio diversification is not eggs and baskets or vague flimflammery. It is a definitive science and one of the most predictable measures for portfolio analysis, but is it important? Find out here.
Style Boxes
This is an equity portfolio comprised of ETF products representing growth, value, and balance, along with small, mid, and large caps. The available balance poses a threat.
Stocks and Bond
The level of balance in this portfolio is typical of the balance that can be achieved by investing in only stock funds and bond funds.
True Diversification®
Our True Diversification® process emphasizes the depth of diversification by finding investments that perform independently of one another and combine to provide greater balance.
Why Diversification Matters?
It is the law:
- Failure to diversify on a prudent and reasonable basis in order to reduce Uncompensated Risk is ordinarily a violation of both the duty of caution and the duties of care and skill.” —
Restatement (Third) of Trusts §227, “Comment on Basic Duties of Prudent Investor,” p. 23]
- Supreme Court precedent explicitly states that liability exists in perpetuity.
- Failure to diversify on a prudent and reasonable basis in order to reduce Uncompensated Risk is ordinarily a violation of both the duty of caution and the duties of care and skill.” —

Where we began…
In 2000, James Damschroder had a flash of genius that inspired the creation of the robust software application Gsphere, which is the foundation of Gravity's approach. Gsphere embraces powerful 3D diversification technology.
Today…
As Gsphere became integral to their client's portfolio strategy architecture and performance optimization, it was a natural progression to start a registered investment advisory company. Therefore, we created a sister company called Gravity Capital Partners in 2010. Today, both companies are owned by Gravity Investments, Inc.
Overview…
Despite the widespread acceptance of diversification as a key benefit for portfolio construction, there has not been a genuine method to quantify either its existence or its effect on a portfolio—until the invention of Gsphere. Gravity, through rigorous research on real-life portfolios, has developed a tried-and-true method to effectively measure and manage diversification with maximum risk mitigation.
“In the industry today, 3D diversification, not risk, is being merited as the focus for portfolio optimization and asset allocation construction.”
Excerpt from Wall Street Technology: Using 3-D modeling also addresses the 2-D limitation of correlating assets as pairs, says Rossi. “There are few people who can glean the nuances of information presented in a two-dimensional table of 30 rows by 30 columns,” he asserts. “In 3-D, each asset’s relationship with all of the others in the portfolio leaps off the computer screen.”
