Investing vs Trading

INVESTING

Investing is where you will learn fundamentals of a stock, buy it, hold long term for the expansion & capital appreciation to take place.

Investing is passive, here the money works for you.

TRADING

Trading is where you do not learn fundamentals of the stock, buy it, hold for few hours to weeks, reap the gains & sell it.  Trading is active, here you are spending your time, money & efforts to manage your money.

Which one you should choose?

Following are the further parameters which Warren Buffett used to determine the path.

PROFIT & LOSS PROBABILITY

Investing is Long-term & there is NO LOSS above 5 years if you hold fundamentally good growth stocks.

Trading is Short-term & there will be STOP LOSS triggering more often.

TAX CUTS

Tax Cuts are very less with Investing as there are No Sell in < 1 Year. The Tax Bracket on Long-term Capital Gains will be 10%.

Tax Cuts are very high with Trading as there will be more often Sales. The Tax Bracket will be 30%.

POWER OF COMPOUNDING
