Mutual Fund vs Stock Market Investment

 

Most of us are always confused,where to invest in, Mutual fund or Stock market? In simple words, where ever you invest, the money finally comes in the share market only. The only advantage is that in mutual fund, your fund manager decides on behalf of you that in which shares they invest your money while by buying stock, you directly invest in share market, by buying shares of company.

Difference between Mutual Fund vs Stock Market Investment

Mutual Fund vs Stock Market InvestmentBut there are many difference even from the above one, in nature of investment, way of investment, return and many more. So, here we are today discussing about difference between Mutual Fund and Stock Market investment.

Way of Investing

In Mutual fund, you can invest via Mutual fund SIP (systematic investment plan), where amount of money you decide to invest is automatically deducted from your account. if you are small investors than SIP can work great for you. One of the reason why mutual fund investment rise in india is SIP.

But not the same case in stock market. Nope, its not that SIP is not available for stock market, some companies still providing this facility but it is failed poorly. The reason it is failed with stock market is RETURN.

Return

In Stock Market, return is volatile. You can get 20% of return in one day or 50%  of loss in seconds.So, if you are ready to lose or big player you can invest in stock market. While in Mutual fund, mostly termed as safe returns. Yes for 2-3 years of return, it atlest gives you 12-15% for sure.(the reason mutual fund investment is popular).

As in mutual fund, your money is invested in different shares (units basically) and you get return according to that only. Since mutual funds are handled by fund manager (who are highly talented and with high experience).

Potential

As mentioned above, Stock market returns are volatile in nature. If you want high returns (and ready to lose badly) you can go with stock market. Though, no guarantee in mutual funds too for safe returns but in nature, and till date performance, you can consider mutual fund safe.

I have seen many stock markets which gives 1000% return in one year (penny stocks) but mutual fund hardly gives that kind of big return. But mostly mutual fund gives more return than bank fixed deposit.

Daily Monitoring

For stock market investment, you need to keep track of the daily movement of share price. you need to keep check stop loss, which to buy, how much shares to buy and much more. And the reason many stock market investors become full time job of monitoring in stock market.

 

While all the above mentioned work (of buying stop loss) etc are done by your fund manager.so, just pick up the good mutual funds and seat back and chill. You can adopt SIP facility if you want to continue investing in mutual funds.

Class Restriction

In mutual fund investment, you gets lots of options like large cap, mid cap, mix cap, gold bonds,ELSS, mix of equity, balanced and many more. But in case of stock market you are restricted at large cap, mid cap or small cap investment. Overall, Mutual funds are quite flexible in nature while stock market is just opposite.

Your fund manger can invest your money in any appropriate stocks and gives you best return. That's the beauty of mutual fund, not suited with stock market.

These are the difference between stock market and mutual fund investment. Read, think and invest wisely.

Understanding Your Cibil Credit Information Report

   WE ARE all familiar with the anxiety and uncertainty that we feel when applying for a loan. After all, it's the lender who decides whether we can own our dream home, our first car, or whether our children can pursue higher education. In a nutshell, a better life depends on the lender's decisions.    While other factors do play a part in the lender's decision, the Cibil Credit Information Report ( CIR ) plays a crucial role in a lender's decision to approve a loan application.    Previously, lenders would treat all loan seekers equally. Each applicant, if approved by the lender's internal credit policy, would be charged at the same interest rate for a particular loan size and purpose. The lenders would charge a higher interest rate to all the borrowers, in order to compensate for the possible default of a small portion of the loan disbursed. In other words, it's like a professor (the lender) punishing an entire class (borrowers) for the mischief played b...

How much to invest in gold ?

Invest In Tax Saving Mutual Funds Online Download Tax Saving Mutual Fund Application Forms Buy Gold Mutual Funds Call 0 94 8300 8300 (India) Let your motivation dictate the share of the yellow metal in your portfolio Enough has been said and written about gold as an investment option. The latest argument is that the craze for gold among Indian households is endangering our country's balance of payments. The policymakers are busy trying to find ways of discouraging investment in gold, but if households keep the common good in mind, they would be paying the market price for gas cylinders as they do for, say, their mobile phone bills. After all, private decisions are driven by private motives. So, how should a household look at gold from its own perspective? Gold is primarily acquired for its merit as a store of value. Even if the worst crisis hits a family, the gold that it holds could be put to use anywhere in th...

Compared to Bank FDs, Debt Mutual Funds are more Tax-Efficient

It is a security vis-a-vis returns battle between bank fixed deposits and debt funds In the past few months, banks have been consistently increasing their rates of interest on different fixed deposits. And after the Reserve Bank of India's Annual Monetary Policy, even the saving deposit rates are up at 4 per cent. For a six-month fixed deposit, you can easily get a rate of anywhere between 6 and 7 per cent annually. However, experts feel if one is looking to invest for less than a year, debt funds could make a better choice. The reason: Liquid funds and ultra short-term funds are giving annualised returns of 8 per cent. Financial advisors suggest retail investors opt for mutual fund schemes as they are more flexible and give higher post-tax returns. Opt for fixed deposits only if you are comfortable being locked-in for the tenure as a premature exit can attract a penalty. If your main aim is to ensure liquidity, debt funds are preferable. Though a fixed deposit gives you a...
