Joel and Liza are having a disagreement over one of their stock investments, which just lost 15 percent in a short period of time. Liza has a very high risk tolerance, but Joel has a low risk tolerance. What would Liza argue?

If Joel and Liza are having a disagreement over one of their stock investments and Liza has a very high risk tolerance, she would most likely argue that they should keep their money invested, since this would be the riskier move.

I believe the answer is: Buy more stock at the lower price


Investors with High risk tolerance tend prefer buy a lot of stock at a lower price and betting that the value would come up in the future.

This move is considered to be very risky because there is no guarantee that the value would increase. But, if it does, the reward that received by investors would be significantly larger compared to low risk approach.
