What's a good place to put 10K for 10 months?
Hello. Does anyone have recommendations about a good investment for 10k for about 10 months? I'm interested in mostly low risk. But would also be interested to entertain some medium risk investments.

Crude Oil
China (FXI)

Hey Abe. I was kidding...I'm not licensed to handle other people's money. If you're looking for a place to make 10% on 10k in 10 months...I assume you mean 10% a month...you'll be paying a nice chunk in management fees I'm sure. Are you talking about 10% growth per month? Or annual? Oh...an please, don't buy crude or china. Those things are parabolic and this is exactly when smart money is selling the stuff off to people who want to get in on the action.

Thanks Tin. I know you were kidding. I'm talking about 10% anual. So 1k on the 10k investment minimum. Thanks for the heads up about crude and FXI.

Oh...looking to make a grand on 10k in a lower risk environment wouldn't be too tough to do over a 10 month period, really. thinkorswim should be able to lend a hand with their autotrading service.
