If you have a horizon of 2-3 years then Sensex is the best opportunity at this level .. there are many stocks which are trading at much below their intrensic value ... since the fundamentals of our economy are intact for next few years , there is no problems going forward in good stocks ...

Answer 5

Reliance SIP + Insure

SIP = Systematic Investment Plan

Insure = Insurance

Answer 6

A money market fund is no risk, as are U.S. Treasuries.  You can also invest in Certificates of Deposit.  They won't pay as well, but you can invest in them while you learn about the stock market.  Once you learn, I would pick a stable stock like a utility (people always need electric power), that will pay a dividend that you can reinvest.  Good luck!

Answer 7

Go in for fixed returns schemes like the FDs and Bonds . You can also invest in commodities like Gold

Answer 8

Here is one answer I provided to someone else some time back:

Have a mix portfolio with equity, debt, real estate and gold.

good portfolio will have nice combination of equity and debt instruments as well as instruments that beat inflation.

Equity portfolio can have these:

1. direct stock investment in the form of company shares, index funds, ETF's

2. Good equity mutual funds (diversified, large cap, small cap, mid cap, thematic, sector and balanced funds)

3. International MF to protect your asset and diversify the portfolio

4. Real estate investment in the form of property, house as well as real estate mutual funds

5. gold in the form of ornaments, bars, coins, Mutual funds, God ETF

6. debt: FD's, PPF, LIC, Post office Schemes such as NSC, KVP, POMIS, MIP Mutual funds, Liquid funds, Fixed Maturity Plans, govt bonds etc...

Now have a combination of the above in your portfolio as per your risk profile.

does this make sense
