Experts urge investors to diversify beyond low-cost S&P 500 funds

CNBC Markets says low-cost S&P 500 index funds can support long-term wealth building, but investors may need added assets to reduce volatility and broaden exposure.

CNBC Markets highlights that low-cost S&P 500 index funds are widely used as a core holding for growing wealth over time.

The outlet cautions that simply relying on an index fund is not a complete strategy, arguing investors should consider adding other assets to diversify their portfolios.

According to CNBC Markets, diversification can help lower portfolio volatility while improving exposure beyond the S&P 500.
