Analysts' and investment managers' bets for 2011
Ziarul Financiar asked several analysts and fund managers to say
what type of investments they recommend to a medium-risk profile
investor wanting to invest a sum of between 50,000 and 100,000
euros.
Most analysts recommended that available cash for investments be
mostly placed in stock and equity funds, considering that 43% of
the total sum on average should be destined to this type of
placement.
Analysts' penchant for stock comes as a major event for the
Bucharest Stock Exchange is to take place in late January, namely
the floatation of Fondul Proprietatea, about which most market
players believe will have a positive impact over the market.
Low-risk securities, such as deposits, government bonds or RON
bonds have an average weight of 21% in analysts' preferences and of
13% for foreign currency low-risk placements.
Profit options for 2011 entail that part of available cash, with an
average 8% exposure, be allotted to speculations starting from
derivatives and ending with commodity options or ETFs.
