The financial market covers a wide range of investments. Besides crypto and bonds, it includes stocks, mutual funds, ETFs, treasury bills, forex, commodities like gold and oil, and even derivatives such as options and futures. Each serves a different purpose, some are for growth, others for income or hedging. Understanding their risk and time horizon is key before investing.
