Don't know if this is a stupid question or not but.. How do Ireland Domiciled ETFs like VUSD & CSPX track S&P500 when NYSE is closed? Or does it not? Like now NYSE is still closed since Friday, does that mean CSPX isn't reflecting the actual price of S&P500 yet? (and is reflecting the prices as of last Friday?) :s22:

here is stock market discussion, also not crypto.
all i know is that u said stock mkt will tank but u didnt do anything, and that shows u arent as confident as u said u were. end of story.

All the nations, G7, UN whatever should just focus on vaccine and cure for COV.

Tackle the root of problem......

May take awhile to develop that.

China has shown the world they can stop it.

Life still has to go on if there is none like the other pandemic viruses.

problem is usa is doing the opposite of what is expected to show life has to go on.

they spooked the markets this morning and they are woefully unprepared to tackle the health situation, dropping contact tracing.

Let's not write off too quickly.

I'm sure every country can do their part to stem the infection.

Market always overreacts on the upside and downside.

some REITs may be in danger of breaching gearing ratio/ debt: equity already. the time to buy REITs is after they announce dilutive rights issue which will cause the price to crash further.

I am staying away from retail and hospitality. Office also looks iffy. Healthcare maybe can in.

Can anyone explain USD situation to a layman like me. How come Fed cut interest rate to 0% and coming out with QE but USD soar? Shouldn't it be opposite waythat USD will weaken?

On my chart, it indicates USD did weaken against EUR leh.
last week close EUR/USD 1.11149, now 1.11960.

Sgd weaken more than USD.

In fact, during GFC, USD also soared. When USD drop against Sgd, that will probably be the bottom

Because it is the world's de facto currency, for now at least...

A large proportion of global trade, even those that do not pass through the U.S are denominated against it.

So in a flight to safety, USD will always be one of the top choices. This time around even gold might not hold up due to deflationary fears, so USD is the undisputed king.
