The scope of investment ideas that we can apply to is not limited by size of the company. On the other hand, fund managers who are charged with a huge fund size find it not worth their while to invest in small-cap stocks. hyomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00175340583474513718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2992822537416759686.post-54220421426655538862012-11-27T18:05:32.205+08:002012-11-27T18:05:32.205+08:00Most professional fund managers can't invest i...Most professional fund managers can't invest in good cold and under value stocks of less than 100M capitalization, unlike retail investor. <br />Normally, small, under value stocks with good funamentals are the ones that gives high capital gain and growth, then the fund managers comes in and the return/yield will be lowSChttp://gainmassivecash.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2992822537416759686.post-49245018452727078422012-11-27T13:11:52.632+08:002012-11-27T13:11:52.632+08:00Hi momo,
Thank you for raising the 2 tax advantag...Hi momo,<br /><br />Thank you for raising the 2 tax advantages Singaporeans face when buying securities on the US stock exchanges. It is important for Singaporeans to be aware of them before taking the plunge into the US market.<br /><br />As for me, it made sense to buy ETFs in the US exchanges because of the type of ETFs I bought and my investment style. For the average retail investor who just wants exposure to Singapore stocks, the STI ETF which can be bought on the Singapore Stock Exchange will suit them fine.<br /><br />It was wrong of me to make a blanket statement in the original blog post that Singaporeans do not get a good deal when they buy ETFs in their home ground. It depends on the type of ETFs. When I started off in the US market, I bought commodity ETFs and international country ETFs. I will modify the post accordingly.hyomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00175340583474513718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2992822537416759686.post-89118355421115500002012-11-27T00:19:57.460+08:002012-11-27T00:19:57.460+08:00hi hyom. sorry i just saw your post on opening US ...hi hyom. sorry i just saw your post on opening US brokerage account. your actions bemuse me. you are aware of the 2 tax issues, then why still go ahead with investing in US exchange?<br /><br />cost, be it in any form, matters - 1 of the classic bogleheads principle. what are your reasons exactly?momonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2992822537416759686.post-21847396566462511682012-11-27T00:15:19.670+08:002012-11-27T00:15:19.670+08:00hi hyom. just to bring up to your awareness if you...hi hyom. just to bring up to your awareness if you don't know about the US<br /><br />and for all other readers too<br />http://www.wilfredling.com/content/view/975/9/<br /><br />read pt no. 6momonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2992822537416759686.post-68587883655154766872012-11-26T21:26:24.133+08:002012-11-26T21:26:24.133+08:00Active fund mangers will push up and down their tr...<i>Active fund mangers will push up and down their transactional prices but we don't. </i><br /><br />Hi CreateWealth8888,<br /><br />I don't quite understand by what you mean above. Could you explain further? <br /><br />One edge that I think skilful retail investors has over professional fund managers is that our fund size is much smaller. It is easier for us to have double-digit percentage gains. This is why I think professional fund managers usually do better in their own smaller private fund.hyomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00175340583474513718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2992822537416759686.post-91780755939989308602012-11-26T21:22:17.217+08:002012-11-26T21:22:17.217+08:00Same here.

Index ETFs will definitely have a place in my portfolio when I become older and my mind grows senile which is time for me to outsource to the next better player. Who better than a cheap and good passive index fund/ETF.hyomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00175340583474513718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2992822537416759686.post-27068060076808259032012-11-26T11:27:21.588+08:002012-11-26T11:27:21.588+08:00Could you explain why you prefer the ETFs in US to...Could you explain why you prefer the ETFs in US to those in Singapore?

Sometimes it's better to admit the truth and go with an passive index fund or ETF.<br /><br />On the other hand, for those (like me) that enjoy the intellectual and financial hunt for those 20% of active fund managers that can beat the index, that route is fun and profitable too - I just treat these active funds like buying into REITs or TRUST stocks in SGX (some are more equal than others)!<br /><br />LOL!<br /><br />No matter active or passive, the individual may have to decide whether to "market time" the market like Andrew Hallam (or Peter Lynch); or to follow John Bogle's (or Warren Buffet) buy and hold strategy ;)<br /><br />That to me has more influence on our returns than active or passive investing. <br /><br />Singapore Man of Leisurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13774067113884418001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2992822537416759686.post-47143800542520094692012-11-25T23:11:45.972+08:002012-11-25T23:11:45.972+08:00Hi TS,
