Trading in any given stock is always high risk. The golden rule is diversification. And holding long term. Mutual funds is a good way to go especially for the novices.
Good points sdiva20. Diversification can help an investor manage risk as well as reduce the volatility of stock price movements. Ex: 1) IT Stocks. Since many of them well aware of IT, if you keep on investing on IT stocks. It doesn't help . The IT stocks mainly depends on Dollar Vs Rupee strength. 2) If all the stocks you owned were extra sensitive to rupee appreciation, then its not diversified. The stocks will move correlation to rupee value. Finally apart from Stocks, You need to also spread your investments over different asset classes such as bonds, cash, real estate and other alternative investments
Sister Vemala, Great initiative, the opening post gives an elaboration of your experience, simply true, unless you are experienced on your own analysis, you are sure to determine how to go about. Though I have been with people who wanted my advice on these like stocks, Mfs, but this kind of investment was not my cup of tea, since I believe like you that quality time needs to be spent and also set aside good sum prepared for everything be it gain or loss. I also second you "NEVER RELAY on TIPS from others" the concept of Virtual money is good, in our days (may be a decade back) we have practiced in ledger books as if we have invested and looked up for daily updates and seen how our graphs flow, was it a meager loss or gain if we would have invested, so after a period we understand the instinct of the particular growth and in general the trading aspects. There are other means where you get returns, Actually there is a genuine demand and investment outlook, sometimes both set of people are still hanging out not finding themselves the right interaction. It is there we pray and yearn to the ALMIGHTY to match them out by his grace. Hope more and more join you in the discussions, Sisters Rajinitk4, Rachputi good luck to you to learn and understand. Thanks, will try to watch the thread. SAIRAM
