[serious] Invest Singapore Stocks or US Stocks better?

[Mia Nanasawa]

how come in 5 years the STI only go up by 20 cents???

US S&P 500 from ~$200 go up to ~$400?

if buy S&P 500 ETF gain around $200 compared to gaining 20 cents?

is this the right way to compare?
what am i missing?
is there anything I don't know?
because it seems like many people love to buy SG stocks
how come?

Sti is for dividends and peace of mind. Not suitable for ginna pi’s which want quick money.

ES3 got higher dividend yield, cannot compare like that, but overall STI has indeed performed very poorly over the last few decades and probably rightly so. You just need to take a look at the companies in the index to know why this is so.

You want serious answer?

Currently China tech stocks are value for money. Some dropped as much as 80% from peak prices.

If you buy now, and if they were to go back to peak prices, that's 5x (500%) capital gains.

Us market is a joke right now. Fed say something everyone overreacts.
