The dictionary definition of ‘Investment’ is ‘the act of investing; laying out money or capital in an enterprise with the expectation of profit’, as well as ‘money that is invested with an expectation of profit’. In economics and investment, it means spending money on ‘capital goods’ to improve production capacity so as to earn more profits. In finance, investment means buying securities or other monetary or paper assets.

Investments can be in the form of real estate, equity market participation, gold, forex markets, or bonds. The investment is made with an expectation that the value of those will increase over time. However, higher the chances of profit, greater are the risks. In stock markets, it is performed by the stock investors. Many of us invest in many of these instruments. However, good investments require deep and current knowledge of all relevant markets. Investment without good knowledge might result in great financial loss. In most cases it is not possible for all of us to know deeply about each investment market. In such cases we can avail the services of Investent Consultants or advisors that guide us throughout the investment and maturing process. They also advice as to when to redeem the investments so as to make handsome profits.

Today investment services have cropped up in every market. Whether we want to invest in stocks and bonds, or in the gold market, there are specialized agencies which continuously conduct market research so as to know the exact market conditions. Based on their knowledge and analysis they even make future predictions, and offer investment advice.
