Basics of Investing

Investing is putting your money to work for you in the hope of making more money. It is an action that is based on long term goals. By investing you may look to beat inflation, possibly reach objective goals -like buying a car, pay for school, even a house, or maybe for your retirement. There are many options for investing your money. To know what you're buying is a better way to invest.

Here are three ways you can invest:

Stocks - When a company trades publicly, its shares are sold to individual investors on a particular market. The share's worth is based on how well the company does.
Bonds - When a government agency, municipality or corporation is in agreement with the bondholder: one who purchases bonds from a Issuer. The Issuer is lent a certain amount of money that has a fixed rate and expires on the specified maturity date. During the life of the bond the issuer pays interest to the bondholder and is liable to pay the face value of the bond at the maturity date.
Mutual Funds - When a pool of funds are collected from many investors to create a large variety of investments so everyone benefits from bigger profits. Since there is different investments within one mutual fund, if one investment has a bad return another will cover that loss. The fund pays out its profits from earning dividends or interest on its investment and by selling investments that have increased.

Things you should keep in mind:

Over the long term, stocks have, in the past, done better than all other investments.
Over the short term, stocks can be risky for your portfolio.
Investments that are risky usually pay more than safe ones unless they fail.
The largest influence of stock prices are earnings.
When interest rates rise that is not so good for bonds.
Inflation may be the largest threat to your long-term investments.
U.S. Treasury bonds are the safest investment an investor can own.
A diversified portfolio is less risky than a portfolio that is concentrated in one or a few investments.
