What is best invest for retire, Gold or stock?

Stocks, hands down.

Gold is a useful medium for maintaining wealth. It will rarely outpace inflation in the long term.


(and investing in mutual funds, is effectively investing in stocks)

Stocks always go up in the long term. Average returns can easily be 10-12% and higher. You must remain diversified, and continually add to your investments. Mutual funds are a good way to do this, but you must keep an eye on your funds, and change them as your needs (and their performance) changes.

gold

Stock is very up and down.. but gold is always getting more and more expensive. We keep on searching for it and the more you melt it down the less pure it gets. But then if it was me and i had the money to invest then i would try both. Get a good informer for stock. Study it.. And also invest in gold. Don't put all your eggs in one basket so they say*

Tax Free Municipal Bonds.

Neither are better as stand alone investments. Gold is always a wild card and stocks are inherently risky, especially if you put all your eggs in one basket. The best retirement investment plan is one with a lot of diversity. If you are investing for the long term a higher risk mutual fund is a good foundation with precious metals and stocks as a supplement.
Short term investment options would be a lower risk fund, and precious metal. Day trading for stocks is really no different than a trip to Las Vegas.

I'm not a financial advisor by any means but my guest would be gold. The Index has been a bit unsteady lately.

I don't know which one is better. But I will say, not stock. If you want to have a peace full time at the end of your life, don't go for stock. It will be fluctuating always and most of the time you will be tensed, resulting an early death.

Anything you got will be taken away if you go into care...........Don't save, let the state pay you what you have worked for all your life.
