    Short term investments

    Inspired by another topic, what are some good ways to take $10k now and earn better than 7% ROI in less than 6 months? You must be able to cash out within that time period, as the initial $10k is due.

      Risk weighted against the ROI I guess. Just looking at alternatives.

        This guy says he has an investment idea for me. Sounds like he knows what he's talking about.

          so you want a 14% annualized return on something liquid enough to cash out in 6 months. Your looking for a gambling play, not an investment. My suggestion would be to fade the NY yankees while Arod is out & their pitching staff is on the rocks. Use a 10 - 15% bankroll risk & in a month you should get that 7%. GL.

            place 100$ on draw (you get ~3 multiple if win), then place double if you miss...
            you will have 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200 and then you are fucked...

            so put on bank and earn 100% safe few %

              It would be very reasy to earn better than your 7% ROI by dealing in gold and silver for the period you suggest. You'd have to watch it closely though and the earnings would be based on multilpe buy/sells over time.

                  Only a ponzi scheme would offer you that sort of 'guaranteed' return.

                    Based on friday's rates, if you put $10,000 in a 6 month t-bill, you would earn $5... before taxes.

                      In Australia we have ETF's (Exchange Traded Funds) many of which are returning 8 - 12% over a 6 month period. You just have to choose the right one, virtually none of them lose money and typically meet the 6 - 7% bank interest rate if they're performing badly.

                        Art is where I've moved my dollars to, and it's returned well over 7%...But it's not something a person can really jump into without knowledge of the subject.

                          Could you offer some evidence which supports that?

                          I'm curious to read your thinking on the matter.

                            7.84% yield at the moment, far from guaranteed, but risk is relatively low I think...

                              Very high risk actually, as you can see by the 5 yr chart. It dropped 50% from 2007 to 2009.

                                I guarantee the bank dosen't pay even 1% interest on USD holding.

                                  He's asking for a 'guarantee'. Nobody can offer a 14% guarantee. The best you can do is a 6 month tbill for 0.05%. Now if you want to assume some risk, its a whole different game but you have a chance of losing part or all of the initial investment, which he said is not an option.

                                        Everything crashed during that time... chance of everything collapsing again within 6 months is pretty low I think...
                                        but you are right, in a strict financial sense, it's a "risky" investment...
                                        if he wants >7% return, then obviously he will need to assume some risk or settle for <1% return...

                                          14% is hi-risk, speculative in todays markets...

                                                  Absolutely. I consistently purchase and resell. The art I collect ranges from $300-$5k, and much of the time, the return is 100% or more. I specialize in the street art market (Shepard Fairey, Banksy, etc), and purchase at source. Often times, a $45 print will resell for $200-$500+ (a $500 print, reselling for $1,000 to $2,000), etc.

                                                  Like I said though, I wouldn't recommend investing in art unless you have knowledge in the subject (places to purchase, how to resell, etc). Ebay works, but is not the best way to get the highest return after Paypal fees, ebay fees, etc.

                                                  The recessions helped with purchases, as art is a "luxury" item, and the prices on older work dropped significantly. With the improvement in the economy over the last few months, the price ascent has been swift.

                                                      I think Gold is poised for a pretty good performance this year but its not easy to predict and its likely to be volatile.

                                                      You could buy into FTR.

                                                      Its a telecoms industry company in the USA that SOROS recently bought into. It has a dividend currently yielding around 10% per annum and the dividend is said to be quite well protected but the share price is depressed and the yield should help it go back up again - infact I think you could make more than that extra 4% on capital gain within a year.
