I started serious Investing Journey in Jan 2000 to create wealth through long-term investing and short-term trading; but as from April 2013 my Journey in Investing has changed to create Retirement Income for Life till 85 years old in 2041 for two persons over market cycles of Bull and Bear.

Since 2017 after retiring from full-time job as employee; I am moving towards Investing Nirvana - Freehold Investment Income for Life investing strategy where 100% of investment income from portfolio investment is cashed out to support household expenses i.e. not a single cent of re-investing!

It is 57% (2017 to Aug 2022) to the Land of Investing Nirvana - Freehold Income for Life!

STI ETF CAGR???














When Uncle8888 looked at STI ETF fund performance CAGR number and STI ETF chart; he has serious trouble to correlate the two diagrams visually for 8% CAGR over 10 years.


We are saying that beautiful lady is 36-24-36; but at another angle she looked rather flat like airport. Strange!


Anyone expert help to explain?

  1. I think the 1 3 5 and 10 years are sitting in a pretty sweet spot right now since they are almost at the bottom back then.

  2. Fund performance always only show the best. Hide the rest.

  3. I guess because STI also gives out 2.5-3% dividends which can't be seen from the chart?

  4. CW,

    When I was briefly a "unofficial" Navigator (hated that role), I learnt what it meant when we say "Never trust a statistics we didn't manipulated ourselves."

    That's why I hate powerpoint presentations now - after the amount of BS I dished out. By changing the scale and which data point I decide as index 100, I can make numbers look better or poorer than they really are...

    LOL!
