Answer 2

Investment in equities should be considered only for tenure of > 5 years. In a volatile market like the current scenario, the 1 year investment may not end up as a profitable one.

For 1 to 3 years of investment, go for debt funds which gives more stable and assured return. For short term goals, don park your money in equities.

Answer 3

Because stock (and to a lesser extent, bond) mutual funds are volatile in the short term, you should look at these investments only if your time horizon is 5 years or more.  The risk of loss over one year is too great in these types of funds.

That said, your best bet in the mutual fund world would be to invest in a money market fund.  All fund companies have them, and they're currently paying around 1.8% to 1.9%.

You might do better with a 1 year CD at a bank or credit union - those are paying around 3.6%.

I hope that helps!
