Speculation is purely based on the hope that the
future price will be higher rather than on
anything tangible.

before hand and decisions are made based on
known facts and figure.
Speculation is usually based on wild rumours
and unsubstantiated hearsays which cannot be
checked for accuracy.
3. Investment is made for the long term i.e. two
years or more .
Speculation is usually for the short run.
4. Over a long period of time, true investment tends
to produce a positive result and True investors
can sleep soundly at night
Speculation is likely to lead to many sleepless
nights and anxious days since its result is so
uncertain.
