Investments can take various forms, such as:
1. Stocks: Ownership in a company, representing a share of the company's assets and earnings.
2. Bonds: Debt securities that pay interest over a specified period, with the principal repaid at maturity.
3. Real Estate: Properties acquired for the purpose of generating rental income or capital appreciation.
4. Mutual Funds: Pools of funds from multiple investors used to invest in a diversified portfolio of stocks, bonds, or other securities.
All investments are assets, but not all assets are investments. Assets encompass a broader range of items that hold value, including both tangible and intangible items. Investments specifically refer to assets acquired with the intention of generating returns over time.
