Alternative and traditional investments: The real score
While Scott Tominaga of PartnersAdmin has discussed alternative and traditional investments
several times before, he believes it is always a good idea for people to revisit the basics and
refresh themselves on the subject matter. A review is still useful, especially for people who plan to
invest soon.
So, without further ado, here are
some of the comparisons made
between alternative and traditional
investments.
Traditional: Traditional investments
include bonds, stocks, and cash. They
are known to be steadier, low-risk,
and less-volatile compared to
alternative investments. Traditional
investments also take a longer time to
yield profits. They require much lower
investment capital and are also very
liquid, which means investors can
take them out whenever needed. The
downside, though, is that traditional
investments also go down when the
market goes down, even to
sometimes being negative.
Alternative: Hedge funds, managed
futures, private enterprises, and real
estate are some examples of
alternative investments. Many people
are discouraged by alternative
investments because of the high
capital requirements and the longer
time it takes to liquidate these
investments. However, alternative
investments are much more profitable
than traditional investments, especially during ideal conditions. But even when the market is
down, alternative investments are affected a lot less than traditional investments.
Which type of investment are you inclined to invest in? Traditional or alternative investments?
