The worst investment ideas — mistakes you should avoid in 2025
Share
There are many things in the market that can be promising to invest in. However, some areas are characterized by increased risks and can lead to losses.
Novyny.LIVE is here to tell you about the worst investment options.
Real estate in the combat zone
It is true that investing in real estate in areas where hostilities are ongoing is risky. There is the possibility of destruction or damage to real estate, and the lack of demand for rentals or sales in such regions can lead to a complete loss of investment.
Businesses without proper transparency and corporate governance
Ukrainian small and medium-sized businesses often face problems of non-transparency and lack of proper corporate governance. Investing in such companies without proper analysis can lead to financial losses due to ineffective management and possible corruption risks.
Projects without fundamental analysis
The worst investment is the one made without fundamental analysis. It is better to invest in a small list of companies — you don't have to buy 20, 30, 40 companies in your portfolio. Invest in 7 or 9 companies, but in those that you have fully analyzed.
Cryptocurrency without a proper understanding of the market
One of the disadvantages of cryptocurrencies is their high volatility - the prices of crypto assets can fluctuate greatly from relatively minor events, which increases the risk of investment.
Is it worth investing in cryptocurrencies in Ukraine in 2025 at all? If you are not afraid of risks and know how to analyze and predict the movement of a rather unstable market, then definitely yes. If not, then consider stable cryptocurrencies (stablecoins) that are pegged to the dollar/euro/yuan exchange rate and guaranteed by deposits in reputable banks.
Real estate is one of the best investment instruments. Various studies are constantly being conducted to determine where it is most profitable to invest. According to one of these studies, Lithuania and Hungary have become leaders in terms of profitability from real estate leasing.
