RICHMOND, Va. -- If your retirement investments were concentrated in the U.S. because you wanted to continue the bull run of the past few years,  you didn't see a very strong return for the first quarter of 2015. Sandy Wiggins, of the Actuarial Consulting Group in Midlothian, said that shows why diversifying your  portfolio is so crucial. Other sectors, such as small companies and foreign stocks (and even bonds!) had strong results.

Watch my interview with Sandy for ideas on how to make sure your investments aren't just focused on the hot sector of the moment. It's why financial advisors always say, diversify, diversify, diversify!
