Buying a broad index ETF or index fund is basically a vote of confidence for that country or certain type of companies in that country/region.<br /><br />Whether is good to buy or not depends on the individual's characteristics, whether he wants to get his hands (& brain) dirty or not. What is the stage of asset accumulation, what is the purpose of this investment, what is the time period, what is the percentage amount as compared to his total net assets, what is the current market valuation, what is the current stage of the biz cycle, etc etc.<br /><br />Different people different answers. E.g. 22-yr old newly graduated with $3.5K salary job putting in $200 each month into STI ETF --- whether market valuation is expensive/depressed, whether it's a bubble or deep recession, whether got Korean War Part2 going on, may not be that relevant.<br /><br />OTOH a 45-yr old guy looking to top up $100K into ETF will need to consider all factors much more carefully.<br /><br />Anyway can always trade STI ETF using Uncle's major support & resistance lines liao. Intermediate level between buy & hold index funds & Uncle's less analyzing more investing, hahaha!!!Spurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11824813457786462446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1602023866179666640.post-77202174470542114362017-05-07T13:22:10.642+08:002017-05-07T13:22:10.642+08:00The real stress from investing is from realizing l...The real stress from investing is from realizing losses and/or sitting on paper losses!Createwealth8888https://www.blogger.com/profile/08563834016250153049noreply@blogger.com
