Bond Investment the Best Choice This Year

Bond investment has recorded the highest yields among investment vehicles so far this year.
In the case of debentures (the bonds which companies issued), an average investment yield reached as much as 70%. Bond yields have fallen sharply from 28.9% early this year to 10% recently.
Bonds which are issued when construction companies build apartments had investment yields recorded as high as 62% for the same period.
These figures were obtained from an analysis by Daesin Securities Co, one of the big four in the Korean security market.
As far as the stock market, most investors were damaged on the year. Investors who bought bank shares early this year recorded a 54.43% loss and paper producing companies' shares fell 41.5%.
In real estate, the prices of apartments (in Seoul) averaged a 23% fall. Even the price of gold has fallen in value this year.
