Old Mutual: Financial Spread Betting and Contracts For Difference (CFDs) are margined (or leveraged) products and let you go long (buy) or short (sell) with Old Mutual shares, they are more suitable for short and medium term investments and cover a wide range of markets, including shares, indices, commodities and currencies. Share investing, on the other hand, is a conservative and old way of gaining financial independence and preserving capital. Even though some stockbrokers offer credit facilities it is very rare and not popular amongst private investors.
Risk Warning: Financial Spread Betting and Contracts For Difference (CFDs) are leveraged products and carry a high level of risk to your capital. You may lose more than your initial investment. Share price can go down as well as up and returns on investments are not guaranteed.
