Question

Whare i invest in shares market or mutual fund?

Answer 1

it totally depends upon your risk taking ability and willing to spend time on research for investment.

if shares: you need to find out good stocks and invest in them, play for long term and you should be safe.

mutual funds: finding and investing in good stocks is done by a mutual fund manager on your behalf, so you save on the research & accuracy. however, they charge a fee for that. so if you are willing to pay a fee in lieu of personal research, go for mutual fund.

basically, both ways you invest in shares (mutual funds is a mix of shares & debts).

whatever you choose, if it is backed by some logic and is for long term (here long term means that even if your stocks take a hit in 1-2 yrs, continue holding it, the downside is always followed by upside), you will have decent returns which is higher than the inflation, so net net you gain on your money.

Answer 2

I´ve been investing for more than 20 years and trading for almost 14, and I can tell you that if you want to make BIG and FAST profits, I recommend you trading rather than investing, trading can help you to go from rags to rich.

If you are investing, you must have already achieved some degree of financial success, long term stock investing and FOREX can help you to diversify your money and become much richer than you are today.

My experiences as a Nasdaq Market Maker, Head trader of several brokerage firms, and currently as a professional trader and private hedge fund manager, I can suggest you that:

We trade because we want quick, short term profits on a consistent basis. We want to cash flow the market. Milk it like a cow.

Make consistent, small, short term gains rather than trying to hit a home run on every trade. Don't ever forget that.

Don't marry a stock, marry the idea of making money trading stocks. That's the only way to do it.

For me "All stocks are equally worthless”

I don't hold on to any illusion that the stock market will continue to go up and provide a nice retirement for me.

I could care less which way the market goes. It's irrelevant to me if the market goes higher, crashes or moves sideways for the next 50 years. I really could care less. Stocks are just four letters with two prices next to them that I use to make a living trading.

Trade ONLY when you have a clear, easy and identifiable advantage, because without a CLEAR EDGE your odds of success are NO better than a flip of a coin… That´s why so many new traders (and investors) lose money.

Take a look at any daily chart of any index or stock and you'll probably see the most volatility and the biggest opportunity for profit during the first Hour of the stock market's opening.

The popular thinking and conventional wisdom is that you should wait about an hour before you start trading.

But if you do, you'll miss the big, fast moves that stocks make as all the amateurs let their emotions out through their online accounts, usually right after they read some news headline or hear Maria Bartiromo go off about a stock on CNBC.

It's easy to see why trading the open is the market's prime time for profiting from other online traders.

The market's open is very volatile - that is the perfect environment for LARGE, FAST profits.

Learn to trade as a professional Market Maker, not as an emotionally driven amateur trader or investor with few thousand dollars in an account at Etrade.

There isn't any other time during the day or any stock you can invest in, that can make you 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 or more points in minutes OTHER than during the first hour the stock market is open, that means: if you are buying or selling short a 1000 shares per transaction, you´ll make $1000,$2000,$3000,$5000 or $7000 Usd "IN MINUTES !!!" not in a day, not in a week, not in a month or in a year, in less than 60 minutes... That's why I love trading the open so much.

I trade only when I have an edge and that means "only the first hour the market is open".

If you are a beginning trader, you can give yourself an unfair advantage in the market trading this way.

I can carry on for hours on how to make money trading online, but if you ask me:

Answer 3

Of course Mutual funds, are one of the best investments ever created because they are very cost efficient and very easy to invest in.

Fund manager who is responsible for your investment can purchase stocks or bonds with much lower trading costs than if they tried to do it on your own.

When you invest in a mutual fund, you are buying shares (or portions) of the mutual fund and become a shareholder of the fund.

Be a smarter investor and let the expert make money for you..

Answer 5

If you don't know what you are interested in investing in, then check out some suggestions, if I may:

HIINX, Harbor International fund. 2,500 minimum initial investment (1,000 if for an IRA), if you had put $10,000 in at the end of 2002 it would be worth $30,000 today.

AVEGX Ave Maria Growth fund, is a little easier to get into if the minimums are an issue ($1,000, IRA or not), but if you had put $10k into it when it started in mid-2003 it would be worth some $17k today.

Something I am interested in, and you might want to check out for yourself, is ICLN, an Ishares exchange traded fund (ETF, sells like common stock), that invests in a representative sample of "Clean" energy sources, like wind and such. Since we simply have to move away from oil and coal (whether you consider "global warming" to be fact or fraud), more energy will be generated from these alternate sources, so the more successful companies in them will undoubtedly rise in value. http://www.ishares.com/product_info/fund...

See if any of these floats your boat.
