When it comes to the investment, many newcomers or people with frequent requirement find it difficult to invest for longer amount of time. Here by short investment i mean any investment which is less than year old. That investment has been cashed out within a year. And by long term investment I mean investment which will be kept for more than year ( ideally 10 years or so).
What do you think which is more beneficial short term investment or long term investment

You have a rather odd understanding of terms duration.  Short terms are called shorts for a reason - you have to be able to get a profit in a few weeks if the circumstances are right. At the same time, long term is designed for holding for up to a couple of years, isn't it?
