Physical Properties of Soil
- Soils are made up of combinations of four distinct layer types or horizons: O horizon, A horizon, B horizon, and C horizon.
- Soils are named and classified based on their horizons .
- Beneath the C horizon lies bedrock.
- This soil profile shows the different soil layers (O horizon, A horizon, B horizon, and C horizon) found in typical soils.
- The San Joaquin soil is a mature soil that has an O horizon, A horizon, B horizon, and C horizon.
-
Risk Adjusting for the Time Horizon
- In other words, default risk increases as the time horizon lengthens.
- For example, an individual investor with a time horizon of less than five years should not be invested in stocks.
- However, those with time horizons over five years should consider stocks because of their growth potential.
- Put simply, as time horizon lengthens a higher percentages of stocks should be added to a portfolio.
- For an individual, diversifying investments in different time horizons is also important.

- A drawing has one-point perspective when it contains only one vanishing point on the horizon line.
- A drawing has two-point perspective when it contains two vanishing points on the horizon line .
- In an illustration, these vanishing points can be placed arbitrarily along the horizon.

- As you can imagine, it is difficult to compare countries across large time horizons, but, after controlling for as many of these effects as you can, comparisons are possible.
