Interesting how StashAway is supposed to diversify investments, but here we all are, hoo-hahing over KWEB whenever it goes up and down...

Haven't looked at my SA ports for a while and regretted doing so today, mood really down... I guess I'll continue to not look at it for a while, hopefully wait for them to resurface to the green then withdraw into IBKR

Omg bro how you know hahaha. One of the reasons I followed in your footsteps and decided to DIY

Yeah regret going for 36% for sure. If I had patiently just stuck to 22% maybe won’t be negative so much. And I also did the monthly deposit for 10 months, just stopped last month. So I am already averaging down, but the bottom is nowhere to be seen.

Eventually KWEB will bounce back, but question is can we wait till that happens. Some people who are in need of money soon for a wedding, send kids off to overseas, or just for retirement will be in a rough patch, but lucky I’m not in those situations yet.

I seriously regret dipping my toes into their thematic, 10k each, ouch. Sure, need to hold 5 years+, but I learned the hard way my risk tolerance isn't up there, so I guess not all is lost.

I think SA is bleeding AUM over the past year, else there's no need for them to do that infographic to show you their past performance blah blah blah. It must be significant enough that they think they should reeducate investors "this is what you signed up for".

Seemed like a good idea at the time, of course hindsight 20/20...

Yeah I should've run when I saw they were all-in on ARK Innovation's various ETFs but what to do, I was lured by their promo code for free management. I was a sucker so I'm paying for it now, literally. Just keep holding and pray I can take it out within 1–2 years.
