The Pros And Cons Of Speculation

Investments are also made on the basis of speculation. Investments are called speculative investment when the investor does not analyze and assess the financial asset before investment is made. Often investors are not interested in long term investment but on short term change in price. The fluctuation of prices over a short term is the primary factor in speculative investment. These short term fluctuations may not actually reflect the real value of the asset. Banking on these fluctuations is both risky and distorts the real nature of the asset.

The Changing Role Of Currency

In today’s world, currency has come to occupy a prominent position. But this was not the way it was earlier. Money in ancient times was made of gold and silver in the form of coins. These coins have its own real value because it was made of precious metals. Larger purchases were made of gold coins while the smaller purchases were silver coins. Banknotes have however replaced these coins. These banknotes do not have any natural inherent value like the gold coins. They are worthless. The value that these banknotes have is because these are legally tendered money by government order.
