These days, investors start reconsidering their investment strategies and approaches as well as the markets they invest in. Obviously, money should keep making money. It is not wise to leave money without work as inflation keeps eating it, thereby diminishing the purchasing power of any currency. Therefore, to cash your investments and to store you investment capital in cash for a long period is to lose money. Obviously, you can deposit the funds to a bank account. However, no interest rates offered by banks can make up for the rate of inflation. So, this is not a way out either.
Then why do George Soros, Warren Buffet and other investment gurus keep investing and making money amid crises? Do mediocre investors have an opportunity to follow their example? Yes, they do as long as they invest in international investment funds around the globe. That is what Alpari experts think on the matter…
Alpari (Best ECN Broker 2012, according to the rating introduced by 2012) is a partner of FS Products. In this article the broker will help us to understand what assets are more suitable for investing and how to find them.
Investment Funds: Accumulating Profits
Sir John Marks Templeton used to say that investors should look for profitable investment opportunities around the globe. Indeed, when you invest in assets located in various countries, along with diversification, you insure your capital against major economic and/or political risks in a certain country.
However, many mediocre investors (especially beginning ones) sometimes have difficulty choosing profitable assets. Obviously, there is a whole sea of investment opportunities and assets to choose from.
However, for those who do not have skills, knowledge and time to invest in conventional assets, it is better to trust your money with international investment funds.
