Question

What are the criteria for short term investment ? 1 yr to 2 yrs. amount is 25000-50000?

Answer 1

1 year is long term, 2 years definitely long term regardless of the dollar amount.    The dollar amount or the quantity in the investment is never a criteria for determing long term - short term.

A short term investment is normally from 1 day up to one year, but one year or longer is long term

Long term to a trader is 6 months or longer, but to an investor it's short term.

Answer 2

Short term usually means 30 days to 1 year. But it depends. It could be a minute to a year, or to 5 years, or some people say anything under 10 years is short term.

What's the 25000-50000 for??
