Investments involve risks and may result in a loss of some or all of ones principal. Risk is generally associated with return expectations and the volatility of the security. The greater the return one expects to make relative to the Risk Free Rate of Return (which may include investments such as US Bank CD's of $100,000 or less and, or  Short Term US backed securities) the greater the potential risk to the investor. In general it is assumed that the greater the level of risk with a security the greater the volatility of the security.
