Hi chrismac100

The one risk with AIM is you buy a stock that goes to zero. With funds you will tend to have less volatility but you avoid that risk. So I use mostly ETFs. You want to avoid the inverse and 2 and 3X ETFs because they do not track their indexes accurately enough.


If you are going to start an investment with $10,000 in stock and $5,000 cash it takes a lot of money to diversify enough to not mind losing one account.

Take the road less traveled. It will make all the difference.
