More profitable mean more ROI for investors?
Where do you get the data/info from?
Or why do you think they are so?
Mind sharing?

Yes, in terms of ROI.

No listed data, just my observation when comparing in general my investment in different fund houses.

ok,...noted your responses about "your observation"...
i also assumed that observation is also apple to apple comparison in relation to their mandate...

its just yklooi's polite way of saying you talk air without data.

Don’t forget market maker can do price adjustments to stimulate trading activities

For those who have stock trading experience would know ETF is traded exactly the same as stock. Note I mention the word trader. Typically they don't hold the stock/ETF long they just want to flip and earn the difference in profits/losses. ask price, bid price, sell down, buy up, contra, shorting etc that are used in stock applies same with ETF too.

But for a investor (instead of a trader), they feel that ETF counter is a basket of stocks represented as a single counter in stock exchange. This is similar to unit trust/mutual fund where it is a basket of stocks in one fund. But the trading mechanism between ETF and mutual fund is quite different. I don't see contra, shorting (long time ago ppl attempted this but failed due to the price lag in mutual fund buy/sell process) in mutual fund.

Transparency’s in ETF holdings makes it more superior than mutual while mutual you only get disclosures through reporting which make sure it lag slow as most will disclose the holdings by the cut off date

Do You Have SGD Ready for Trading?

looking at the banner of FSM seems like SGX stock trading is available on FSM MY soon, hopefully the trans fee is competitive

unlikely seeing how they still insist to have min charge on other markets as well.

really hope tiger/moomoo/syfe trade or so come to MY soon to drive up the competition for consumer's good

i think moomoo and webull aldy allow malaysian open acc with them right? Even IBKR and TD sg are allow malaysian

those mentioned,...they allowed for investors with Malaysia's bank account also or they need to have SG bank's a/c only?

yep they do allow but the hassle depositing SGD only (or others) since they don't accept MYR.
were talking about they set their ground in Malaysia with the 'regulation' head nod, but yeah, u know our 'rule' here

so there are limitations, cost factors, ease and convenient factors to consider too

Confirm follow back SG charge so of min $8.80 per trade or 0.8% whichever is higher

Expected. Meh..

Here are 3 SGD ETFs which you will find useful soon
In this article, FSM will introduce some unique and interesting ETFs that can be found in SGX to our Malaysian investors

good guess

SGX trading is up

Not a guess but a fact why bother multiple tier fees when it’s easier to manage with a single tier fee

So common sense prevail when FSM is too predictable as they are conservative which is why their shareholders are happy

8.80 vs 25+ which we used to pay to Spore brokerage is half price and more cheaper. But transact via FSM shares are under FSM custodian acct not in CDP acct. But I guess for Msian CDP acct means nothing.

Ramjade mention SGX good for REIT stocks and not much else so he go for US stocks and ETF via IBKR paying even lesser fees. Guess diff investors diff strategies.
