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!

  3. Retirees don't have to invest to build up wealth for retirement. Know what is enough and stay invested and add when favourable market condition appeared for that desired yield. Slightly bigger cash generation for next few years as saving.

  4. There may be more upside if we can collect those big cap stocks at 3 to 4% during market crash

  5. The STI yield is 5~6% during bear market (crash) with ~50 margin of safety in price.

  6. During the last 3 big bears, STI weighted dividend yield peaked at around 5.5%-6% on TTM basis.

    However chances are that most people were too scared to buy. Yield can always go higher! LOL!

    E.g. At the beginning of 2016 in the 2015 mini-bear, STI yield reached 4.5% ... how many were buying big then?

    Currently the yield is about 3.6+% --- average to slightly above average. Compared to many other stock markets around the world, S'pore blue chips are still rather cheap.

    Coincidentally monthly resident unemployment rates often peak at 5.5% to 6% in major recessions. However this statistic is slightly delayed by couple of months from MOM.

    Hence more useful as "timing" tool for property bargain hunting. (Properties only see major price drops when big numbers of people lose jobs & can no longer pay their mortgages)
