Answer

Do they have different meanings?

Business investment is up. (‘Investing’ wouldn’t sound wrong, but less professional)

Investing in NFTs was all the rage. (Lots of people were making these investments)
My investments in NFTs are worthless now.

Answer

Investing is a VERB in present continuous.

Infinitive form is - to invest

Investment is a NOUN.

For example:
I’m investing a lot of time and money in my education 
My investment in education has opened many doors for my career

Answer

Thank yuo Victoria, Very useful

Although “investing” can be used as a gerund. It refers to the process of investing
