Welp it's green again. 

Me invest RM30 per week 
But I have 2 portfolio.
Anyway depends on your risk appetite.

Im new to this investment world.2017 is a bad year for me and im still recovering (financially) from it

Currently I am accumulating emergency funds, investing and paying bad debts.

So i reduce my focus on topping a huge chunk in SA unless im done with the bad debts (not anytime soon) or have accumulated enough for my 6 months emergency funds (predicting this will be by end of this year)

Currently USD is strong against everyone else. SGD, EUR all kena butt fart by USD.

StashAway's performance should be judged from USD return, the USD MYR is something you should ignore in short term.

In both SG MY portfolio setup page, StashAway expect SGD to inflate at 2% while MYR at 3%, meaning you should expect MYR to weaken significantly in next 20-30 years, if that happens that means you will see ur returns to be sky high as opposed to those in SG, but in reality, you have lost a lot of purchasing power.

i tot in the end everyone is looking for how much money u can make? if a unlikely scenario, ur portfolio is very strong, but MYR strengthen and ur realized loss is so high, but u see ur portfolio USD keep fly, like that got use ka?

US Q1 GDP data is out:

1Q GDP annualized, QoQ: -4.8% vs. -4.0% expected, +2.1% in 4Q 2019
1Q Personal consumption: -7.6% vs. -3.6% expected, +1.8% in 4Q 2019
1Q Core PCE QoQ: +1.8% vs. +1.7% expected, +1.3% in 4Q 2019

no wrong to see USD to see actual performance of the portfolio without currency exchange. just i keep seeing here religiously highlighting must see TWR & MWR in USD not MYR. But in fact our acc is MYR so u like or no like ur withdraw later also MYR based, so absolute gain is finally also see in MYR.

OK la, i think long term DCA will negate the effect of MYR strengthening so end of the day, DCA is quite important.

Shoot up because of covid cure. Really sentiment driven. Very irrational

us market sudah gila la..dont know this gila how long can last

One last bull trap for whales to kena the suckers, maybe.

I don't buy the priced in already bullshit, US is getting hit very hard by covid right now and they absolutely sucked at handling this pandemic.

im not doing the dca lately due to being unemplyed right now. wat portfolio risks u guys had? just curious

Oh and BTW, does anyone here got their april 2020 statement?

my personal opinion...DCA for me timing not nice yet..still waiting usd index drop below 98

For dji
I'm pretty sure it will not drop <18k
S&P500, <2.2k

What’s your view on current market situation?

For me it’s rather irrational. It’s been like living in dream.

I have no ideas with all the negative news and reports also the unemployment rate. But the index just keep to charge.

Not to mention the oil price.

And bursa keep going up despite bad economic

That is weekly unemployment benefit claims which is 3.8 mil for last week.
Not unemployment rate number. But also eagerly to see how high the unemployment rate shoot up to! :hmmm:

Thanks to Trump again.
Futures is very red.

Trump is back with his China tariff pattern.
This will sure affect the market sentiment as investors expect them to move to Phase 2; not back to square 1.

Well, if it does fall back, I will DCA too next week as you said.

Don't disagree for the sake of disagreeing. That fella asked should they use StashAway when they do not have income just yet.

Use that pocket money to buy ebooks or MOOC to upskill, go travel a bit, boost your motivation and morale for the rest of your life. So fast grind retirement saving for what LMAO.

Cmon, uni students, you have better use for those monies than to put inside robo advisor. Maybe buy bitcoin and learn some painful lessons on investing, which can cost you more if you make those mistakes later in life.

finally red for 2 consecutive days. time to top up for monday!

LOL maybe you should read the question properly. Looks like you've made some painful but useful mistakes.

Anyway his/her question is 'can' you register for StashAway without an income. Not 'should' they use stashaway without an income.
