I think one of the biggest advantages of short-term investments is that you get to convert your money as fast as you can.
By the end of 6 months or a year, you can be able to analyze and come to terms with how much you have made by investing and this is something that I like about such investments.

In my opinion, one of the advantages of short-term investing is that someone can withdraw investment funds and their profits quickly, according to the time chosen when deciding to invest. So it is considered less risky than long-term investments.

If I have money and are going to invest in the short term, of course I will choose investment instruments that are easy to trade, such as bonds, or can be disbursed for a short time, such as a 3-month deposit, which is why short-term investments are said to be low risk, besides that short-term investments also have the advantage of being able to earn yields quickly.
One major advantage for short term investments is the fact that you would not have to wait for a long period of time before you cash out. This is good for does who do not have the patience to wait for a long period of time.
That's good, as for me maybe if I will choose a savings deposit. There are various choices of nominal and timeframes that you can choose as you like. What do you think about deposit savings?

Savings and deposits are different, savings can be withdrawn at any time and currently savings in Indonesia under IDR 50 million or around $3,319 do not earn interest, which is why I have transferred my savings to deposits. There are deposits with a term of 3, 6, 12 and 36 months, but because for the short term we choose under 12 months, and deposits can only be cashed out after the time period ends.
What you say is true, but the drawback is that we cannot take our money before the expiration date. So this is only suitable for those who have cold money. LOL
Short term investments could prove to be handy in many cases. They can help you generate instant profits in a short period of time. This could prove to be a good investment opportunity for small investors.
