STI ETF

[reddevil0728]

Thanks. I thought it works like normal stock. Number of shares sold = Number of share bought. In order to buy, there must be sellers.

It does.....

Hope the guru here can help with this question.

Is it easy to buy and sell the sti etf considering the low volume?
Would you be in a situation where you wanted to sell at market price (or maybe a very little lower) and queue for whole day with no buyers?

Thanks.

Volume is low? i thought is quite healthy.

To your second question, it really depends on what price you are queueing at? if you are queuing at a very high price, then regardless how high the volume is, you will likely not get any buyer.

As what Wood above already said, there is a market maker for the STI ETF. Notice that usually ~3 bids around the last done price, there is always a bid or ask of 100k units. That's the market maker at work. Hence you can always sell the STI at worst ~0.3 cents below market price if you really need to. If you need to sell >100k, the market maker will top up the bid queue almost immediately.

By the way, you need access to market depth to see the 100k in the queue, which I was talking about.

STI has been disappointing for the past 10 years. Best to continue to DCA. Ignore the fluctuations.

But must also diversify and buy global stocks or ETFs.

true. must diversify globally. and juz continue to dca.
when i started investing it was expensive to buy overseas stocks. now is much cheaper and easier.

 

[Mr. Wood]

mayb dis is why. risk reward not aligned.
but bond yield has dropped significantly. not sure how will affect equities.
