Skewness is important to understand because it can allow investors to get a better understanding of where the market is at and where it may go. It is important to take a look at the data with an open mind, but also understand that this data could only be driven on price depending on how it is figured.

Skewness is a term that is typically found in statistics, and statistics is used in standard deviation and other investing and trading setups. Skewness is taking a point on a data set and seeing how far is varies from the normal distribution within that data set. If you look at chart, it can skew left or right of the normal distribution area.

Skewness also can help you determine the probability of an event happening or you can combine it with other statistical data points.

It involves categorizing the investment universe based on risk (standard deviation) and return, and then choosing the mix of investments that achieves the desired risk-versus-return tradeoff. Portfolio optimization can also be thought of as a risk-management strategy as every type of equity has a distinct return and risk characteristics as well as different systemic risks, which describes how they respond to the market at large.
