here is the correct order of investments from Lower Risk to Higher Risk: Treasury bond − Diversified mutual fund – Stock
Treasury bond is released by Government, so unless your country went bankrupt, it is safe to assume that you will get the investment back.
Diversified mutual fund puts your eggs in a lot of baskets So in case one of your investment fail, the others could still support your overall investments
Since the stock is a single entity and really fluctuative, it is considered as the most dangerous type of investment.
