Which is ur shortlisted broker?but unlike you, i'm still yelling to the moon, dun dare to take action. because of this reallocation, i'm looking into investing directly into the US ETF of my choice but my head almost meletup trying to find the right broker. IMO, u still can purchase SA and u can follow its allocation at ur broker |

QUOTE(dinkelberg @ May 28 2020, 05:39 PM) How do you approach Syfe REIT+ ? do you lump or DCA. Their equity portfolio seems interesting but we are losing on Transfer service fees especially if you're DCA-ing. What I did prior to this is worst than DCA.... I only transfer cashback/rewards I got from credit card or bank account. So the amount varies from $1.50 to $40.There's no transfer service fee, so why not. |

QUOTE(zerolord @ May 28 2020, 01:01 PM) I'm using IBKR, low fee, low forex spread, but it's just me. There are tons of brokers out there, just find one you like and stick to it. Yeah I'm using IBKR also. It's good.QUOTE(MNet @ May 28 2020, 03:43 PM) Which is ur shortlisted broker? Not easy to manually follow when SA invests in many many different ETFs. Then when you DCA RM500, you have to split it up to 10+ various ETFs (while incurring fees)?IMO, u still can purchase SA and u can follow its allocation at ur broker |

QUOTE(rocketm @ May 29 2020, 01:47 AM) We will know in 10 years.A lot of people think its bad idea because it's not comfortable for some to consider China is replacing the West as THE superpower in the world. We dunno what to expect and what will happen once China really surpass US in terms of GDP, technology, military etc. |

MNet, sigh, i actually signed up for eToro and all ready to pump money into it. the very next day it got put into SC blacklist now i've read articles here and there saying that it shouldn't matter. however, the idea of potentially having RM50k sitting in a broker that has been blacklisted by SC.. it's just a recipe for sleepless nights.IMO, u still can purchase SA and u can follow its allocation at ur broker so now i'm looking at the TradeStation Global (TSG) option. And i'm stuck at the 'create a Singapore bank account' part. seems like i need a work permit or something to do so? that being said, i'm dragging my heels a bit on this one because it would really kill my DCA aspirations. I intend to DCA RM500 monthly into ETF and if i went with this TSG option, the fees from constantly TT-ing money into SG may end up being quite costly. i'm at an impasse. |

QUOTE(ericlaiys @ May 29 2020, 10:01 AM) Nope. China has potential to recover fast as they exit Covid earlier. While i think US is going recession & the way the administration work dont look great and disappointed. I agreed on your statement but if SA optimise the users' portfolio to China, user should able to get better performance in the certain time period. |

China will devalue their currency to prevent from overheat thus it will lessen the investment gain tremendously |
