		A time horizon is a fixed point of time in the future at which point certain processes will be evaluated or assumed to end.
		Although short term horizons such as end of day, end of week, end of month matter in accounting, generally it is mere summing-up and the simplest mark to market processes that take place at these short term horizons.
		Agreeing on a common time horizon for action is particularly important in global policy, as each participant will have very different time horizon habits.

		So, another way of time travelling to the future would be to go and sit next to a fl hole or a neutron star, both of which are very massive and have huge gravitational fields.
		Time travel to the past is more problematic, but there is nothing in the known laws of physics to prevent it.
		Although the time machines suggested by physicists are theoretically possible, all of them would require massive amounts of energy and a level of engineering technology that we don’t have at the moment, and which we are unlikely to have for quite some time.

	The Role of Risk in Mutual Fund Strategies
		Regardless of the return objectives and time horizon within a portfolio, risk tolerance affects both asset allocation and especially the selection of fund categories (i.e., large value, small growth, international, short-term bond, intermediate-term bond, etc.).

		hen combined with investment objectives of time horizon, return objective and portfolio size, risk tolerance can be used to design an optimum investment strategy by customizing fund category allocations and suitable mutual fund selections.
