In finance,
investment is
putting money into an asset with the expectation of
capital appreciation, dividends, and/or interest
earnings. This may or may not be backed by research
and analysis. Most or all forms of investment
involve some form of risk, such as investment in
equities, property, and even fixed interest
securities which are subject, among other things, to
inflation risk.
In finance, investment is the purchase of an
asset or item with the hope that it will generate
income or appreciate in the future and be sold at
the higher price.It generally does not include
deposits with a bank or similar institution. The
term investment is usually used when referring to
a long-term outlook. This is the opposite of
trading or speculation, which are short-term
practices involving a much higher degree of risk.
Financial assets take many forms and can range
from the ultra safe low return government bonds to
much higher risk higher reward international
stocks. A good investment strategy will diversify
the portfolio according to the specified
needs.
