I prefer equity (stock) over property investment, not because equity investment is less risky than property investment, but because equity investment suit me better.
Equity and property investment have their fair share of risks. We do see/hear speculators/traders burn in their equity investment with tons of broker's debt to clear. We also do see/hear bankrupted property owners with properties been auctioned cheaply.
Sound risk management is necessary skill for an astute investor. I like weijian's comment in his posting in another relevant thread.
"The property folks think equities are risky - but the more seasoned equity investors know it is not so much so, because of their experience and insight into the world of equity investing. So, maybe the same goes for equity investors like u and me looking at the moves made by those property insiders?"
