Day Trading Stocks & Futures

People are shifting their investments from physical assets such as real estate and Gold to financial assets. With current rate of inflation at 8-9 % , bank FD and debt mutual funds giving 6% p.a. is sure way of depleting our wealth.We have to invest in instruments that give us more than 8 % return per annum and hence investing in direct equity or well managed equity or balanced mutual funds is necessary. For total newcomers to the investing, Index fund is a good option to beat inflation by earning 10-12 % CAGR.

In past bank FDs were giving over 9-10 % p.a.( in some years even 13-15 % p.a.) and that used to take care of 8-10 % inflation but now it no longer gives that high returns.
