Have recently finished reading Mark Minervini’s "Trade Like a Stock Market Wizard". The idea of trading growth stocks is very attractive but does require alot of discipline and does not fit everyone’s risk appetite and willingness exert effort. Nevertheless I believe this sort of trading technique provides a healthy upside regardless of its weight in a portfolio. Would love to hear what you folks think. Cheers!

I note the first 3 years would be with a guaranteed (by who? bank or Manulife or another party) return of 2%pa.
i) May I ask if there is a guaranteed return for the 4th year?
ii) can be purchase using SRS funds?
iii) what is the min sum to purchase/invest?
Thank you.

Yes, what lee has sent you is correct.

Answering your question:
i) May I ask if there is a guaranteed return for the 4th year? - No (depends on their par performance, which is from Manulife. POSB is distributing their products. You can check out their past par performance)
ii) can be purchase using SRS funds? - Yes
iii) what is the min sum to purchase/invest? - $10,000

starlight,

I saw this at POSB the other day, 8.5% over 4yrs insurance plan, not sure it's the same thing.

I still have not figure out how to buy STI ETF using SRS funds.

You need to provide your stock trading company (e.g. POEMS) with your SRS account and they will then do the tie up. When ready, you will have the option to pay using SRS funds on top of cash and CPF.

Alternatively, you can buy thru your SRS bank who also carry such funds.

😄

I hv an a/c with POEMS
I read that POSB, POEMS, OCBC & even SCB offers their customers to buy ETF.
I have not figure out which offers the lowest cost...

It all depends on your reference time frame, TA, the industry or sector, or the individual stock.


Oh... I am looking at STI index as a whole because I am investing in ETF using SRS funds to buy and keep for years hoping STI will hit ard 5000 pts in 20 yrs time. 😉 Plus receiving an expected 3.5% annual dividend. Right now, not sure if STI will drop further.


STI index is downtrending and probably still in a consolidation stage, and moving within the support and resistance levels.

But in the long term STI has always move up as seen over the many crisis like 1987, 1997, 2001, 2003, 2008 etc.

The current dividend is probably around 2-4% depending on the level and price bought.

Just bought some ETF using SRS funds on 15 Dec. If suay suay STI goes below 2700, we will probably buy 2nd round.

since that is the case, why not do a savings plan rather then an investment where returns are more guaranteed? an investment will keep you on your toes the whole time...
