The Most Popular Investment Vehicles in Today's World

By Jordan Leach

If you've ever invested money, I'm sure you can relate to the thrill that a great investment or trade brings. Few things in this world beat the rush that comes with making money this way.

People are always looking for ways to make their money grow, and the first place that many people look is to the hottest markets. We've seen many of them in our lifetimes and we're bound to see some more. These exemplify the dreams of overnight riches that many of us have, so there are always investors flocking to them.

The present day investment environment brings about a lot of opportunity. Whether you feel that the market is on its way up or down from here, one thing is for sure. The market is extremely volatile.

With volatility comes opportunity. Here are three areas that might present themselves as high upside investment opportunities. Whether you're long or short, it's all about timing these things right.

If you've never heard of an ETF, you've missed out on the biggest craze in the equities markets during the last two years. These are tracking devices that tie themselves directly to indexes. When the index goes up, the ETF goes up, and vice versa.

Another high risk situation, but one with high reward, is that of the options markets. An options trade can yield you as much as ten times your investment or more within a matter of days or weeks if played right. On the same note, you could easily lose your entire investment if things don't go your way. Therefore, it's never advisable to throw all of your money into an options trade.

As popular as ETFs and stock options are these days, it could very well be that Forex trading is even bigger. People love these leveraged trades, as fortunes are made on tiny movements in currency values. This requires a bit of understanding as to how currency markets operate, but people find it to be highly interesting and potentially very lucrative.

Remember that these are all high risk markets. If you're looking for something more secure, seek out traditional equities, mutual funds, or bonds. - 23212
