new to stock, this is my first week in trading!

anyway, is EPF is good benchmark? basically when I saw an announcement EPF is dumping a certain stock, its price will drop pretty fast, and the opposite if they acquire it

and also I'm still learning, hope to learn from the sifu here

So I've set aside a small amount of funds for trading, since the FD rate are pretty shitty now, so I was thinking why not invest in stock market since some of the stocks are at their all time low now due to certain factors like scandals & disasters. If stock price increase after the crisis then good la, better return than FD, if drop further, nvm then, will treat it as just bad luck, some unexpected expenses like expensive car repairs and hold it until it rebound, hopefully.

Also about pennyshares, will a hit & run tactic sustainable for long term?
example I targeted a high vol pennyshare, then just let go when price increases just by 0.005, to make a tiny profit, and rinse & repeat
since it's pennyshare, it won't drop too much or too drastically, and if got burned, also won't be too hurtful... this tactic ok?

well, I've tried, yes it's long queue and hard to buy or sell, but still possible if you're persistent
managed to buy/sell one this week at 1 sen profit

anyway, am still learning and getting a feel on how's the market moving, especially on penny shares
since my investment is small, i don't expect a huge return, or will get hurt badly as well

don't dare to touch those big stocks yet, first budget doesn't allow, second doesn't have the experience yet
