What would master suggest and how to do the monthly DCA if I have $3k/mth to invest?

open a trading account with the banks. save up for 3 months. DCA yourself every quarter with the 9k. Lower comms this way.

If you have no inclination to do fundamental analysis, DCA with STI ETF or Nikko AM STI ETF.

paiseh ah, if 2018 still bull year horh, then if you are a newbie, will you do DCA or go straight directly?

cause the cost will increase if it is bull year, one will be earning a loss right?

EDIT: not sure cost will increase but the amount of shares that can be bought will be lower. But will cost go up by a lot or by a little

Let me add on one more to what MasterLeong has said.

Time in the market is more critical than timing the market.

How sure can you be that 2018 will be a bull year?

Also remember at the beginning of 2016 during the prolonged bear market that eventually claimed StockBot as one of victims (because he took on too much risk and lost his cool)?

If you have had DCA-ed all the way, right now will be having a paper profit.

onward DBS!! 18.03 gogogo CXG

At the current pace it is rising, DBS might overtake AIMS as my top holding soon.....

But tiagong when banks chiong, it usually signals the late stage of bull run liao....

That is akin to why most people buy the STI ETF. However, I think buying the ETF is not the wisest choice if one would like exposure to the index.

Ya.....not the wisest choice (that's why I dun buy STI etf mah.....hehhehe)

But it is a safer long-term, hassle-free choice for investment novices who prefer to focus on other aspects of their lives rather than digging into financial reports and balance sheet statements of companies.....

 

[madtari]

If one wants exposure to equities with high risk appetite, ETF might not be the best vehicle. However if one wants exposure to index, ETF should be the most appropriate. What else would you recommend otherwise?

i think if one has a bit of education in stock picking, they will find it hard to resist.

for a ETF like ES3, with banks having a nice run up, let say to 1.5 PB, I guess few value-oriented investors will find it motivating to buy up es3.

not to say i don't envy how relaxed people who DCA are, though.

Next 2017 may go to 1% to 1.5%

U hoot too high and paid too much premium to book
Maybe in future try only pay 1 times book or less
This will help protect your downside
