If you hypothetically had $10K to invest, what would you invest it in?

First, invest in whatever will let you sleep well at night. I suggest that you visit the library and the internet and learn as much as you can about the stock market and mutual funds. Then, invest in No-Load mutual funds which, in turn, invest in large cap growth or value stocks. Stick with high quality, and avoid "penny" stocks and other volatile investments. The Vanguard Family of mutual funds is a good place to start. Their expense ratio is very low.

Be patient; don't panic, and enjoy a smooth ride.

Since my goal is to assemble a down-payment for a condo I would put it in my money market fund. Right now I need stability of principal and that is my chosen method.

I invest based upon prioritized goals. My 401k is maxed out and owning a home is next... What's your goal with the $10K?

High growth mutual funds. Or medium growth mutual funds. If i did mutual funds i would stay away from real estate backed funds, i would go with international growth or aggressive growth. if you're older then you should do low risk funds or US Treasury funds.
OR- if you have debt with high interest then i would pay down the debt.

Age is a major determining factor in this and is this tens of millions or your only ten? A 60 year old might invest conservatively in Bonds or a savings account while a 20 year old might invest it in something much more aggressive since he/she has many years to recoup any setback. Don't think of it as $10,000, think of it as five "chunks" of $2,000. Assuming you're 20 yrs old, start a retirement fund (IRA) early...you won't pay tax on the earnings until you you're 59 1/2 yrs old, when you start withdrawing from it. Leave $2,000 in a non -IRA bank savings account, then allocate the rest as an IRA throughout mutual funds differing in risk...growth, growth income, international. But you have to do your research on what's available - look online or buy an up to date magazine that is known for such comparisons. Good luck and be smart, fight the temptation to waste it on a plasma tv !

Warren Buffet, the worlds best investor and second wealthiest person was asked that this morning. He said to buy an index fund that tracks the entire stock market. Of course this is for a long term investment. In 10 years you'll double your money. If you want more risk, invest it in an emerging market(foreign stocks) index fund. I doubled my money on a South American index fund in two years. It could lose half it's value in the next year.

I'd invest it in a hypothetical hot dog stand. If people wanted a hot dog I would have to tell them sorry but hypothetically they are bad for you so I only sell them hypothetically.
