Question: Me and my wife are doing well in US and in the meantime we are trying to set some financial goals for ourselves and have been doing some research to achieve them.

In our present situation, we are interested in mutual fund investments in the US and were wondering if you could suggest any mutual funds with no or low loads and minimal investments of $ 150 per month. We just want to give it a start no matter how small the amounts. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Question: An article stated that, “Legendary investor Warren Buffett holds Coca-Cola in his portfolio and the stock has multiplied almost 15 times since he first bought in 1988. Among other reasons, the key factor that prompted Buffett to buy Coca-Cola (as he later clarified) was that he believed in the simplicity and sustainability of its business, factors that hold steady to date as well”.

If this money was invested in the bank FD in 1988, even after discounting inflation, wouldn’t it deliver better returns today? Did the author mean 15 times annual growth?

Why people come to ‘Colaco & Aranha (C&A)’ for Investing ?

The first reason is Expertise.
