95: How to build a more robust portfolio

When the direction of markets seems totally unknowable, constructing an investment strategy can sometimes feel like a battle. Among other things, investors need to find a decent array of weapons, or investment opportunities; guard against attacks, or shield against unrewarded risks; and, as no plan survives contact with the enemy, adapt to changing market circumstances.
