Difficult to be specific because there are so many different funds but generally they are as long as you stick to something with a good track record and spread the risk.
You might feel times are turbulant but looking over the long term (which should always be your goal with this type of investment) things are more settled than ever.
The highs and lows are not as extreme as they have been looking back the last 30 years and in a sense, the world is a much more stable place financially at least.
Take your time, do some research and just don't fall for the 'independant advisor' trap of believing for one second they will sell you anything that isn't going to make them a shed load of commission.
Get lots of genuine unbiased advice, spread the risk and invest in what's best for YOU.

from my personal observation only new released funds can perform. Reason is most funds that has been around either lose the momentum or unable to outperform last year performance. Most older funds already reached a maturity level.

Not ALL funds are a good investment regardless of market conditions. A good buy in my opinion is the Blackrock Dividend Achiever Fund ticker symbol BDV. It has a nice dividend re-investment plan so you can build up you investment over time. Also they only invest in stocks which have been increasing their dividends each year every year over the last several years (I believe that is ten yrs). A nice way to stay diversified and sleep at night.

I still think ISA equity Funds are worth considering and buying whilst prices are realy low and show signs of improving, providing that you can wait for them to come back up which can take time. When they have risen some what but the market looks set to fall again then pop them into a more secure fund.
If you have invested your maximum in this financial year then you can still buy into Unit Trusts however, you will pay tax therefore you need to consider the best place to invest depending on your personal ciurcumstances and whether you can afford to tie the money up until unit prices are high .

Not all funds are secure so if your investing a lot of money then I would pay a financial adviser for professional advise and my other suggestion is land or property.
