with $1000, you can start invest in mutual fund. but if you are not confident with current stock market condition, just put your money in CD. you'll be much more comfortable for sure.
in the meantime, i'd suggest you to start learning about stock investing. you can make money from it yourself without having your fund manager managing your money.
Besides, i find these articles useful, which i hope it helps you too. if not, my apology.

alot depends on your investment risk tolerances and your time horizon. If you are young and wont be needing the money for awhile you should consider opening a roth ira or a traditional ira..either one will let you invest in mutual funds with less of an entry fee.Usually you can find funds that will let you invest as little as five hundred dollars as a minimum in a retirement account. You could invest in a fund of funds within a fund family that also has lots of good choices. A fund of funds will make sure you have good asset allocation and may even rebalance it for you. The key would be to continue adding to your account either investing systematically in the same fund or in others as you get the money..over time you should easily beat c.d's..which are taxable..while your ira isnt...i hope this helps and good luck... |

CD"s are very cautious. You have a long time frame to be a little more adventurous and try to get more growth. You could put it in an Equity Income fund from a quality firm like Vanguard. |

There are better alternatives.
Don't go for stocks. Since the stock market is not going so well, overseas investments would be the best choice.
Starting a small business would be the way to go if you have time.
Alternatively try to invest in someones business. You may receive up to 20% guaranteed interest a year. You will not get such high guaranteed returns on stocks, mutual funds, bonds or CD's.
If you invest $10,000 at 20% annual interest rate, you will get back $24,883.20 in 5 years. I run my own business and my net profit is over 5% a month.
Email me at investment4us@hotmail.com and I'll give you a valuable advice if you are serious about investing. Please don't forget to mention your nickname and question at Y.A.
Best of luck! |

A well-planned strategy is essential before having any investment decisions. A business strategy is generally based upon long run period. Formation of business strategy largely dependent upon the factors such as long-term goals and risk on the investment.
As the return on investment is not always clear, so the investors prepare the strategy so as to face the ongoing challenges in investment. A balanced investment strategy is generally required in the process of investment, which possesses long time period and some risk tolerance. |

A mutual fund would be a good way to invest a small sum of money. But most mutual funds have minimum investments requirements of around $2,000 or $3,000. Maybe you should put the $1,000 in a CD, and add additional savings to it until you have enough for a mutual fund (some CDs let you make additional deposits). Then, a simple mutual fund to invest in would be a life cycle or target date retirement fund. |

Yes CDs are good. Yields are very similar if you put the money in a money market or online savings account. I like the online savings because it allows you to withdrawl funds at anytime and can earn around 5% per year (depending on the bank). (I suggest HSBC, ING, Citi, etc) |

I don’t appreciate casting my pearls before swine. In this forum there are many a swine who will cast doubt on the most sound advise as well as those who seek advise but won’t spend a dime for the very best advise. Yet they will throw $1000.00 down easily on a mutual fund that will 80% of the time under perform the market.
If you’re a beginner asking for investment advise, all you will get here is website and mutual fund recommendations. They will give you the lowest possible risk advise which consequently gives lower to no gains at all.
I took an online course that yes cost me some money, but it is a two for one deal and I didn’t have to follow a rigorous schedule. I’m making money in the market, even when it’s going down. Good luck filtering out the ‘shills’! |
