A key rule of our three-part Successful Investor strategy is to spread your money out across most if not all of the five main economic sectors (Manufacturing & Industry; Resources & Commodities; Consumer; Finance; and Utilities).
This has two main benefits: a) It keeps you from investing too heavily in any industry or sector that is headed into a period of big losses; and b) By spreading your investments out more widely, it also improves your chances of latching onto a market superstar—a stock that will wind up producing two or five or 10 times more profit than average.

These two stocks are down lately. That’s because they earn most of their income based on the value of the securities they manage for their clients, and the recent stock market volatility will probably hurt those asset values. Even so, both should continue to benefit as more investors approach retirement and turn to professional asset managers.
