Which is the best investment? Short-term or Long-term?

It depends on your investment levels when exactly u need the returns...while investing in short term is more risky than investing in long term avenues.
it is difficult to say as which one is good. as botn with have its own pro's n cons..it depends on ur risk taking ability and yr investment objective..like what kinda returns that u expect and when u want to liquidate

long term

its very simple ...!
if u need the return in short term......invest for short term, otherwise .....

Short term. So short term can make money within 10 business days. That mean you can get your profit and your money can be use to invest in others investment.

Long term, some take about 3 -5 years. If the return is less then 15% per year it is not worth in this kind of investing.

The only good long term investment is precious metals. Everything else is just a trade.

If you are not a Trader and a retail investor, then Long Term Investment is the best, and that too in Blue Chip Companies / Large Cap.

Short term investment is best if u invest in mid cap / small cap.
