I would ride out the mutual funds, remember today's value is not why you bought them, would you sell your house now because the value did not go up enough in the last few years? Most likely you would keep it because the value of the house in 10 or 20 years is what you are really concerned with. Same thing with this investment aren't you really interested in the value of the mutual fund 10 years from now?
If you in the USA, this is some additional info I just posted this for another similar question.
I would suggest opening a 529 college savings plan. These accounts allow the money invested to grow in mutual funds on a tax favored basis. No capital gains taxes, if the money is used for higher education it remains tax free. The account would be in your name with the child as a beneficiary. One nice thing is that once your child turns 18 the account still stays under you control. If your son wins a scholarship you will be able to withdraw money from the 529 equal to the scholarship and you would just pay taxes. If you remove the money from the 529 for non qualified expenses you would pay taxes and a 10% IRS penalty. If your son never goes to college you can change the beneficiary to someone else, even yourself. These accounts don't have much of a downside. I would recommend you checking out the 529 offered by The American Funds.
Another option is to open a trust where you can start saving for his retirement. these are easy to do and the account is set up in a way that prevents him from getting to the money until he is age 65. http://www.ricetrust.com/ |

I think it is smart to purchase stock in a company your son can take interest in such as Disney or Toys r Us. It would be a great way to teach him about business and finances over the next few years. |

If you are going to invest in stocks, then you have to keep up with what is going on with them. A company that is great today can be in financial trouble a year from now and eventually it will be reflected in your stock. |

thats a tough one only because of the time length. It is hard to predict the future here with the way the market swings. I would suggest you do stocks only if you plan to learn it and be able to stay up on it. Some people say stay out of the market but I disagree. However you must educate yourself for a couple months and get some broker advice to help guide you. However you make the last call-
This year solar seems to be the thing and financials not.
First Solar seems to be ruinning well, but I would watch how it does over the next few months. I do believe in solar because of our demands for clean energy.
I would check out VIsa, they just had a new IPO come out. Wait and see what thier earnings are before you buy in. If the earnings are good then buy in. If you check out master card you can see that it has had positive steady growth so visa having more contracts than master card could follow.
Also I would suggest gold, you can never go wrong putting your money in gold-
I would never suggest putting money in a stock and leaving it there. YOu must keep up on it and be able to detect bad news that is in the fundementals of the company you choose. Fundamentals such as the companys quarterly earnings and performance to make sure it can stay with your plan.
CHeck with someone in the investment area of your bank to get some more advice and guidence before doing anything.
I do agree with you with putting your money in other places other than mutual funds for now. |

Buy SPY. It tracks the S&P 500, will give you diversification, long term market performance and avoid the fees of activly managed mutual funds. Other choices are the Dow Industrials [DIA] and the Nasdaq 100 [QQQQ]. |

NO buy sell, sell or hold recommendations.
Since this is for the extremely long term, you want good, stable companies which pay dividends.
The stocks you should REALLY consider are the "Blue Chips" - the Dow 30.
Many of them have been around for many years. HOWEVER, simply because you recognize a company's name or stock symbol and/or the company has been operating for a very long time, doesn't mean it will continue to be in business in the future.
ALWAYS investigate before you invest.
Thanks for asking your Q! I enjoyed answering it!
VTY,
Ron Berue

It seems you are not happy with the investments you made on MF, but still I will insist you to invest in MF. There are no of good Funds with great returns for children(Long Term). Visit the website:
www.valueresearchonline.com
and
Read the magazine "Mutual Fund Insight". |

Hey mate, I say it's best you stay out of the stock market for the minute, the mid term outlook is fairly uncertain, and another shift, not to mention a full recession, could cause you to lose out in a big way. I'm in Australia and interest rates are currently high so the no brainer option is to put money in to the bank and enjoy the nice interest (I earn 7.00% p.a. in my zero fee account). If you do go for shares, it could be worth a visit to a financial planner. Some will offer free no obligation visits, make the most of one or two of these if you can. But once you start paying them, you REALLY start paying them. If you ask me it's not worth it. If/when you dive into shares, trade using an online trading platform, you'll save money. Spend a bit of time before you jump in, researching what stocks have proven to be solid and have a good outlook for the future. I'd say for the time being though, find the best bank account you can, and maybe give stocks another go in a year or two. Good on you btw, wish my parents had started saving for me early on, would've helped a bunch. All the best. |
