RETURN ON INVESTMENT

You have made investments, and your expectation is that you will make money, that is, profit from it. Now, you don’t inv­ est in a single instrument, you invest across several of them such as stocks, funds, bonds, fixed deposits (FDs) and so on. So, how will you know which one is do­ ing well or better than the others, make an informed decision on which one is bringing you more profits?
