Last month, we asked our readers to submit the investment conundrums keeping them awake at night – here is a selection of the best.
Nick Bamford, chartered financial planner at Informed Choice, answers your basic investment questions
1) Dlp6666 asked: How can you research funds with complementary strategies for diversification in your portfolio?
2) B Williams asked: What are the tax implications on dividends from investment trusts?
3) floatUPstream asked: How wary should private investors be about market fluctuations caused by computer algorithms – for example when setting stop-losses?
4) Vladislav asked: Is it ever worth buying/selling funds in the short-term?
5) Vladislav asked: When trading funds, it takes a couple of days to execute my order. This means the market conditions can change dramatically and the order will still be executed – how do you mitigate this risk?
