thanks. I will keep in mind.
haha, 6 times is example only

Keep it simple, deposit weekly, then go live your life, play your games, cook your favourite meals.

Keep simple +1, but I'm an advocate for monthly DCA here

Adding on: given that SA invests on ETFs instead of direct stock, as well as a mix of various other instruments, they have already got the volatility cushioned by diversifying their portfolios. One can then argue, it is overkill to DCA by weekly -- of course, we can talk about market correction/crash that happens in the next hour of me typing this, thus invalidating everything I say.... But my point goes back to keeping things simple, and each of us here have very different risk appetite and rationale on our investment strategies. Pick your poison.

Simple had changed to AmIncome fund 2 weeks ago, but can't see any interest earn during this 2 weeks.

if im not mistaken interest is daily but updated montly

Sometime feels demotivated as KWEB keep going down, it always at negative number. as it took the biggest chunk on 36% risk of investment.
(Started invest on SAMY early March.)

Sometimes wanted to cut the bleed to not drag down profit but don't have the control it make me frustrated. 😣

7 range this week while next week will be in 5-6 range

ETFs are predictable if you know to range entry

I suggest take a look at your amount if it’s is less than usd200 you be better off doing monthly DCA otherwise don’t bother it will sit in your cash pile only the next accumulate to buy

Payout will be only a full month hence end of July will be 1.5 months because of the carryovers migration

You went in the wrong time when it is high and you should just leave it and hope US equities will cover the losses by KWEB together GLD

They update balance monthly, so most likely end of July/early August then will only update the balance.

then perhaps 36% is not for you. go back to 22%

Haiz… a lot of newbies here complaining again.

I hit -23% in 2018 after using stashaway for 17 months.

It’s not a smooth way up, its like roller coaster until it suddenly moons, like in 2019 and 2020H2

I have 22% portfolio as well, KWEB still negative but the rest positive able to cover it.


Hahaha, I am ok when general ETF goes negative as the market really bad.
It felt like a needle keeps poking my attention when a single low-performance ETF drag down all profit.

Yeah they forgot SA is for long term eg: at least 5 years. Some just invest one day and see negative they started jumping already. Better put in FD la these people

With optimisation off KWEB performance in my portfolio is 30%. Dragging my entire returns to the negative percentage.

No need to talk so much if disagree with their current direction, then just withdraw. Well at least i am, bit by bit. Price i got yesterday is not bad though, hopefully all out before the force auto optimization.

your life is my dream, when did u started?

so whats ur plan in future? DIY?

KWEB will be on drip soon at the rate it's going.

Which is why that’s their problems as long it doesn’t hit below -36% just stay course

Why worry so much KWEB only all while dropped you should be only worried if it goes below 45 level

Wait because the buying spree is coming soon

Down US$823 billion, China tech firm selloff may be far from over

(July 7): China’s technology giants have seen a combined US$823 billion wiped from their market value since a February peak, with Beijing’s expanding crackdown on the sector fueling investor concern that the selloff is far from over.

Authorities on Tuesday issued a sweeping warning to the nation’s biggest companies, vowing to tighten oversight of data security and overseas listings just days after Didi Global Inc’s contentious decision to go public in the US. That has put further selling pressure on China’s biggest technology names including Tencent Holdings Ltd, Alibaba Group Holding Ltd, JD.Com Inc, Baidu Inc and Meituan.

“The selling will continue in the third quarter,” said Paul Pong, managing director at Pegasus Fund Managers Ltd. He says he sold two thirds of his technology stock holdings, including in Tencent and Alibaba, in May. “The measures from authorities will keep coming.”


The losses have come from 10 firms including three US-listed names. Didi’s ADRs fell 20% stateside on Tuesday, erasing about US$15 billion of its market value.



The Hang Seng Tech Index, whose members include many of China’s biggest tech companies, fell as much as 1.9% before paring losses to 0.6% Wednesday, marking its sixth consecutive day of declines.

Tencent slid 1.9%, among the biggest decliner on the Hang Seng Index. Alibaba dropped 1.7%, while Meituan fell 1.3%.

China’s sweeping warning Tuesday followed the opening of a security review by the nation’s internet regulator last week into Didi and a demand for app stores to remove it. The move stunned investors and industry executives and has hammered the Hong Kong shares of peers such as Tencent — one of Didi’s largest backers.

Investors worry that the latest security-based probes have opened a new front in President Xi Jinping’s broader campaign against China’s internet giants that began in November with the collapse of Ant Group Co’s mega IPO and subsequent antitrust investigations into Alibaba and Meituan.


Over the weekend, China moved against two other companies that also recently listed in New York — Full Truck Alliance Co and Kanzhun Ltd
Investors are likely to take “a sell first, talk later approach” to limit policy risks in their portfolio, said Justin Tang, the head of Asian research at United First Partners in Singapore. Stock prices are likely to be driven by near-term sentiment swings as opposed to company fundamentals, Jian Shi
Cortesi, a Zurich-based fund manager at GAM Investment Management, wrote in an email.

To be sure, valuations may start to look attractive. Tencent, Alibaba and Baidu Inc — among the earliest Chinese tech companies to enter public markets and the biggest, trade at an average of 22 times forecasted earnings over the next 12 months. That compares with the 10-year average of 26 times, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

“In case the market sentiment goes into extreme pessimism and we see the Hang Seng Tech Index down 20% from here, it could be a rare opportunity to buy some fast-growing Chinese internet companies at extremely attractive prices,” GAM’s Jian Shi said.

The Hang Seng Tech Index is down 31% from its February high. Investors in mainland China, who accounted for about a third of turnover in Tencent shares this year, turned net sellers of the stock in June.

“While the long-term future of Chinese tech remains, it will be caveat emptor for investors in the near term,” said United First’s Tang.

China n HK i heard near bear market already.
