EVERYMAN'S
INVESTMENTS
BY GEORGE I. HUGHES.
Market ability.

After security of principal and rate
of return on n given investment the
third consideration OF Importance is
the possibility of re-exchanging the
security for cash. Now investments
vary greatly in this respect. Roughly
they may be divided into three general
groups, those that may be turned into
cash on demand. those that by the
terms of the agreement will be paid
off at a certain fixed date and finally
those which can be turned into money
only by selling the security to some
other investor.
The savings bank depositor stands
practically alone as far as the average
small investor is concerned in being
payable on demand. Money in the
savings bank may be drawn out at the
PLEASURE of the depositor, although at
some sacrifice of interest. In the
sec@nd group come most real estate
morAgag es. Here the money is loaned
for definite term of years at the
termination of which the lender is
entitled to the return of his money.
Bonds full into this classification in so
far as they have a fixed maturity date
but many of them run for so long a,
time that the investor who wants his
principal returned is often obliged to
sell at the market price.
Finally all stocks. both preferred and
common, are investments which to
realize upon it is necessary to dis
pose of to some other investor. This
is a point which must be carefully
weighed before putting money in
stocks. Thu value back of the shares
may be constantly increasing, but it
does not follow that the market price
will advance correspondingly in fact
very often just the opposite takes
place The consequence is that the
investor who wishes to turn his hold
ings into cash Unexpectedly often has
to take a loss on his principal. The
same thing happens with bonds, but
not quite so frequently.
1t can be stated as a general rule
that other things being equal the
more readily a security is salable
the smaller the return it brings to the
investor. In other words, one has to
pay for mark reliability
