If you had invested in Unitech, Jai Corp, Suzlon Energy, Aban Offshore and Kingfisher Airlines on January 10, 2008, you would be holding a horror of a portfolio today. A Rs 1,00,000 investment in each of these stocks that day, or Rs 5,00,000 in total, would have shrunk to Rs 39,260 on October 31, 2011

There will always be stocks that lost a lot of money and there will always be stocks that made a lot of money. Both stocks and real estate have a risk of depreciation. For people looking for a steady return, should invest in a fixed deposit. However, when set off with inflation, FD investment vehicle looks like a loss making one.

The mindset is that with stocks, if the prices go down, you have only papers in your hand but with real estate you can always have some utility for it.

Its a personal choice of risk and reward. I wouldn't really say one is better than the other.

The prices of stocks can move up and down much faster than real estate prices. That volatility can be stomach-churning unless you take a long view on the stocks and funds you purchase for your portfolio, meaning you plan to buy and hold despite volatility. Selling stocks may result in a capital gains tax.
