Comment on What are the pros and cons of investing in a global equity fund? by The Mutual Fund Investor

The Mutual Fund Investor — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 02:54:16 +0000

Hi Swatgirl,

The pros of investing of in a global equity mutual fund are equity diversification around the globe and not having to worry about making the decision about which markets to invest in. The portfolio manager will make this decision for you. Diversification may also help to reduce volatility.

The cons/risks of investing in a global equity are similar to the cons/risk of investing in an international equity fund but to a lesser extent. The risks would include political risk, currency risk, as well as emerging markets risk. Emerging or any developing market can be much more volatile than a mature market. And specifically for a global equity fund, the advantage of the portfolio manager picking the countries could also be a con/risk. You may disagree with the manager’s country selections, but would have no control over the allocation.

As far as the decision to invest in an income fund over perhaps a global equity fund, the risk and return characteristics may be very different. Income funds are usually less risky than equity funds, but also normally have lower returns.

I am not sure that I understand the short-term gains question. Income funds primarily generate income while equity funds primarily produce gains or losses. Over long periods of time, you are more likely to generate higher returns with an equity fund compared to an income fund, but the risk is likely to be higher.

I hope this helps.

@407buddy

I just recently started researching investing because I am at the point where I have some extra money to do so. Where is the best place to buy/sell gold for investment? What are your plans in the future? Since the value of gold is rising signifacantly since 2003, do you plan to sell after it STARTS to decline? I’m just exploring my options, because right now I’m got my money sitting in a money market account right now, making less than 2%, and I want to make the most out of it

A global equity fund invests in global stock markets. These funds invest a part of their investments in North America, Europe, and Asia. Some of them own innumerable securities to enjoy the growth prospects of various companies while spreading around the risk that comes with investing in different companies. A good global equity fund forms the base of a well-diversified mutual fund portfolio for any profile of investor.
