Why would you do that? You still get the same portfolios in SG.

Didn't someone say that the sg version have a portfolio of local reits? If I didn't remembered wrongly lols.
Maybe that's what he wanted.

That's it, Jompay should be the best way to deposit into stashaway at the moment.

Deposit before T-1 12AM, then there is a good chance of it buying assets on T+0.

Deposit before T+0 12PM, then they only buy on T+1
*
Upvoted. The process became faster. Previously no matter how early the deposit is also need to wait T+1. And Monday won't have buy orders. But nowadays Monday also got buy orders.

actually buy on monday or buy on tuesday.

would it have super huge impact over the next 20 years? assuming if you plan to keep the fund and stay invested for the long run.

we should learn to be more chillax (like one forumer said the other day), to me, monday or tuesday, it won't make any huge difference. if you do it frequent enough, surely you lose some and you gain some.
*
Nothing to do with monday or tuesday.
When we deposit something for purpose, obviously we want to see it reflected in the account as fast as possible.

An abstract example, if you want to place FD in the bank, the bank staff tell you system lag cause many people using, now take your deposit but next week only placement, you happy or not lol.
Anyway we are appreciating that Samy has become faster.

ok, maybe it has significant impact to you, but small fry like me only deposit few hundred on a bi-weekly basis.
Yeah, appreciate that it is now faster than before good news.
But let's not forget, one of the main objectives of SAMY is for those not so savvy or those who do not want active monitoring on this part of their investment to deposit money and "stash away", that's how they get their name right?

More so, SAMY also recommended one to stay invested for at least 3-5 years (we can see in every portfolio right) or even longer term. so why not just set up weekly/bi-weekly/monthly instructions and then forget about it?

My point being, whether the order was placed on monday or tuesday won't really matter when you are in this for the long haul, you will surely win some and lose some, but the effect would somewhat be nullified in the longer run.

So final point is, tighten your seatbelt, lay back and relax. Let the pilot take care of the rest.

Active monitoring and active management is different but anyway long term is the goal.

To point out something that has been highlighted before...since the term DCA has been used rather loosely. Different people would be seeing returns that could be similar or wildly different.

Person A lumpsum initial capital of 10k at ATH in February and DCA 100 each month since then would highly likely still be in negative.

While Person B actually DCA from the start at ATH of 1k each month could have already breakeven.

Because the impact of the subsequent "DCA" are wildly different.

Scenario A is hardly impacted while scenario B each deposit impacted greater though with reducing impact with each deposit over time.

Quite normal for first few months, market volatility+foreign currency exchange rate will make graph very bouncy.

Once you stay long enough to gather enough dividends (I think most if not all of the ETFs in SAMY pay dividends) then it'll stay mostly green rclxms.gif unless market crashing like last year pandemic March 2020 global lockdown hahaha
*
The dividends are taxed 30%...why so happy about dividends which would decrease the price of the etf and be reduced by 30% before being reinvested? Unless I misunderstood how that works...

Nett gains from compound dividends eventually pay off my management fees and still give me profit. Anyway by the time the dividends reach me as end user, it's already taxed, so I'm calculating based on what i get, not what it is before tax. https://www.stashaway.my/faq/115010107948-d...ends-get-taxed/

Maybe I'm just not the kind to be that calculative, but if SA can (and already has) beat EPF gains after tax, I'm more than happy already, and I don't have the time or energy to buy "cheaper" through DIY tongue.gif

If that 30% tax is too much for you, feel free to invest elsewhere. Plenty of other options which "more bang for buck".

You're completely misunderstanding my previous post but since you're too lazy to read it properly its fine.

Oh no, I get your issues with tax efficiency, but as mentioned in the link tax efficiency shouldn't the only factor to consider for performance. I understand what SA aims to do with their choices of ETFs and I'm ok with that, even if it's not great tax wise.

oh you do get it lol...well its more on optimising cashflow and reducing unnecessary expenses but stashaway's choice of portfolio is so far still looking decent. as long as it performs well enough, the minor details like the dividend tax can be glossed over thumbsup.gif

I saw someone mentioned DCA weekly is better coz the fluctuation not that big. Like top up on every Thursday and by Monday they will buy in already.

Actually is the difference significant between DCA weekly or monthly?

This has been discussed so many times already, just search using keyword DCA. plenty of discussion to read.

how though? Shouldn't single account vs several accounts should have the same total return if the incoming funds and profit rates are identical?

E.g.
1 account of RM10 k with RM100/month, vs
2 accounts of RM5k with RM50/month to both accounts

Assuming the same profit rate, wouldn't the final returns be identical?
*
Could be cheaper fees, if the amount pooled together can push him to a higher tier with cheaper fees.

Again, I gotta ask; Isn't Stashaway Simple free? If so, then why bother asking if get free 6 months or not?

If Stashaway Simple not free, then I gotta read about it again. I understand its free.

:confused:

Because your focus is wrong. Original poster asking if he gets management fee waiver if his referral only use simple, not if his referral gets charged for using simple.

I do monthly on SAMY 'schedule deposit.' This month had an issue for me. :'(.

I have 2 portfolios, deposited RM100 to Portfolio A on July 1st and deposit RM100 to portfolio B on July 3rd.

Today Portfolio B had converted the RM100 to USD which is normal. However for Portfolio A have 0 updates, the RM 100 never shows on the USD cash section. It went missing.

I had informed SA they ask me to wait 2-3 days more.
*
Don't think that their US partners working on their independence day.

0 working days (for them) has passed since you deposited on Saturday.

Just wait if today or tomorrow not reflected then check with support.
