Short term investment options?
i have between 1000 and 3000 dollars that i would like to invest

i need to use the money in about 4 months
so i need to have it accesible then....but i dont need any of it until then

what are some investment options that i have
i prefer high returns to saftey

but i want to know some details
can you please let me know some of my options
or where i can go to look at my options

btw
two things
the return must be over 2 percent (i prefer way over)
and just know that i am only 16

but i am very knowledgable in economics

i am a little wary of the short term stock market (i have confidence long term....but i dont have that long)
but i would still like to know some options

any help would be greatly apprecaited
Additional Details
a webite with options would be good too

Invest in Silver, often called "the poor man's gold". Silver used to be a monetary metal, and maybe some day it will be again. I've recommended silver before, and now I'm going to recommend silver again. Back in 1980, gold sold for 850 and silver sold for 50. Then, one ounce of gold would buy 17 ounces of silver. Today with gold near 900, one ounce of gold will buy a whopping 55 ounces of silver. It seems to me that silver, in terms of gold, is "too cheap." You can easily buy it at your local coin dealer... ask to buy 10oz Silver Bullion Bars.

If you need the money in 4 months, your best options are either a money-market account, or a 3 month bank CD.

You're wise in avoiding the stock market, because you'd be subject to a huge risk, if you want the huge returns.

Keep it simple, use EmigrantDirect.com or ING to open an online savings account with no fees earning just under 4%.


Dan
I think shiemaya has the right answer. Investing is a short term proposition. Use an online fund with a well known online bank that doesn't charge any sort of fee. I think you should be able to earn at least 3%-4%.

Coca-Cola (KO) stock appears to be doing very well.

Here is a suggestion. You should ask your parents if they think it is a good idea. No reason to take to much of a risk with your money.

go to: low-cost-stock-recommendations.com

They have a section on International CD's. I was reading an analysis, and there is a Icelandic CD that pays 12.14% APY and is insured by the govt. Best of all, you can purchase the CD through an USA Bank.

The analysis said the risk is from the value of the currencies. If the dollar moves up against the Icelandic Krona....it will eat into your profits. However if it goes down against the Krona, it will increase your profit.

If you put it in for 3 months, you would have a yield of about 3%, so the Krona would have to fall by 3% against the dollar in 3 months.

The question is, which way will the dollar go ??

Check it out.

You could buy a 100 shares of a stock around $5-$30 right now, then sell some call options against it. it will give you some downside protection and options sell for good premiums right now in this volatile market.
If you buy some Intel shares around $20 right now, you can sell April $21 call options for like $1.15 apiece.

I agree with Shiemaya. Since you need the money in about 4 months, you would be taking too much of a risk to invest it in the stock market.
