Investment index fund: a steady way of wealth growth
With the constant change of investment concept, more and more investors begin to choose investment index funds. Index funds have attracted many investors for their simplicity, transparency and low cost. This article will elaborate from the following three aspects.
First, the yield of index funds is higher than that of ordinary stocks.
Index fund is a passively managed fund, and its investment strategy is to simulate the performance of a market index. Compared with actively managed funds, index funds have higher returns. This is because it is difficult for most active fund managers to exceed the market average in stock selection, while the investment strategy of index funds is to track the market average. The management cost of index funds is also much lower than that of active management funds, which makes the return rate of index funds higher.
Secondly, the diversification of index funds reduces the risk.
Index funds usually invest in multiple stocks to achieve diversification. This investment method can reduce the risk of a single stock and the risk of the whole portfolio. The investment strategy of index funds is to track the average level of the market, so as to realize the long-term stable growth of the market. In the stock market, the performance of a single stock may fluctuate greatly for various reasons, but the performance of the whole market is relatively stable. The investment strategy of index funds can effectively reduce investment risks.
Third, the long-term investment effect of index funds is remarkable.
The investment strategy of index funds is to track the average market level, so it needs to be held for a long time to obtain income. Holding index funds for a long time can avoid the impact of short-term market fluctuations on investment. Long-term holding can make investors get the average market income, but also allow investors to enjoy the compound interest effect. The compound interest effect means that the investment income can be reinvested every year, thus forming a larger investment base and obtaining greater income.
