So as we know that Stocks & Bonds are best known for Assets.
But still their are some queries which is to make sure which one of them is less riskier.
As you might know that Risk Management is really important when it comes to Investing, Business, etc. So it's essential to pick up an argument/debate which talks 'bout which one of the 2 (Stocks & Bonds) is less riskier.
So today we are about to do the comparison among the 2.
B'fore we get any further.... I would like to make this thing clear that STOCKS & BONDS within itself are very profitable & can cause a loss at the same rate. So an individual who is very experienced or have acquired much knowledge in one field may be able to generate much profit then the other field.
Anyways,
Back to Stocks Vs. Bonds (Comparison!)
So....
STOCKS Vs. BONDS!
Okay, So now let us start with simple definitions & explanations.
So,
What Are Stocks/Shares?
Well, we know about it very well.
Basically, STOCKS are assets & for investors they are a source to grow their wealth with their knowledge. Stocks/Shares are a part of a Company which one buys & it grows as teh Company expands & one faces a loss if thhe Company doesn't perform well.
However, due to Economy & even Government Policies & Human Behaviour one can earn or loose money via Shares/Stocks in Share/Stock Market!
& If we talk about,
What Bonds Are?
Then,
BONDS are also assets, only.... but it's a document provided from the Company/Business Owner or someone who owe money to you.... & that document contains all vital peices of information.... such as, the amount you've paid to the Business Organisation, & when is it to be returned & with what percentage of the interest rate, etc. etc.
Both the things are quite identical.... you know.... both are Assets.... we expect high returns.... etc. etc.
But, THERE IS A DIFFERENCE!
The Difference:
Stocks— So as I've already mentioned that Stocks are Assets & Investors invests there.... to expand their wealth but if you've read my other articles on Stock Market then you for sure know very well, that Stock Market is risky.
You know if you invest in Share Market then you may not be 100% sure that you'll earn/make profit, ONLY. You know— like— it's a 50-50 % chance. So, as per of not being 100% sure.... you know it definitely means that it can either be profitable or simply cause a loss.
BUT
Now if we talk about Bonds then as per of having a legal document it literally confirms that you'll earn profit, & that's all I can say about it.
All you have to look after is that you aren't into a FRAUD or a SCAM.
& Infact, IF the Business you Invested in (in Bonds) is not a fraud & if unfortunately it goes Bankrupt then you need not to worry because you are to be paid back AFTER LIQUIDATION!
So you know that Bonds are pretty much a safer OR less riskier Investment which can be made.... as of in comparison to Stocks!
THATS JUST MY OPINION!
It's just based on my opinion, influenced by what I know 'bout Stocks & Bonds!
So far, to answer the question.... I just think that Bonds are way safer than Stocks.... but ofcourse, the returns may not be that high in Bonds as they may be in Stocks.
AGAIN! ITS JUST MY OPINION!
Well, now you let me know.... What Do You Think? Are Stocks Safer Than Bonds? Or Are Bonds Safer Than Stocks?
You already know what I think....
Now, I'll like to know 'bout your opinion.... So,
