Active Investing

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.04 sec.
Active Investing
The practice of an investor or a money manager trading the securities in a portfolio on a regular basis. Sometimes active investing exists within certain parameters; for example, money managers may only buy blue-chip stocks for a certain portfolio and growth stocks for another. The basic premise of active investing, however, states that investors and managers seek to maximize their returns by buying or selling securities regularly. See also: Passive management, Indexing.
