GBP / USD
A $10,000 investment at a recent low would have made you $10,583 - a $583 profit!
Contrasted with an interest-bearing bank account which might pay 3% per annum if you’re lucky, trading can see a 5% return over the course of one day, and often times even more for the shrewd investor.
Historically, stocks have averaged an annualised return of 10%. That’s better than the average annualized inflation rate of 2.9%. This means you must have a longer time horizon. That way, you can buy and hold even if the value temporarily drops.
Stocks and shares entitle the bearer to an annual dividend payment on a per share basis, they also produce an ongoing revenue stream in the good times. This allows any trader or investor to receive passive income, which is stress-free trading!
