For those new to investing, putting your money in a benchmark country index is one of the easiest and safest ways to begin your journey. In Singapore, the benchmark index is the Straits Times Index (STI), and there are two STI ETFs – SPDR STI ETF and Nikko AM STI ETF – that we can invest in. What Is A Benchmark Index? A benchmark index of a country usually refers to the largest and most liquid stocks listed on its stock market.

At the request of an SG Wealth Builder Lifetime Member, I am covering EngGro share price in this article. With a market capitalization of just $157.9 million, this is a very small cap stock in SGX. Admittedly, prior to the request from my member, I have not heard of this company before. I believe I am not alone as this counter falls under the radar of many analysts. However, a closer look on this company reveals some interesting findings. EnGro’s history dates back to 1973 when it was formed as a tri-partite joint venture among SsangYong Cement Industrial Co. Ltd (South Korea), DBS Bank, and Afro-Asia Shipping Co. Listed on the SGX main board since 1983, the company was previously known as SsangYong Cement (Singapore) Pte Ltd. However, SsangYong Cement exited the business in 2005 and the

My portfolio is 10 percent in the green, but I have several misadventures, with counters down by 50 percent or more, such as TianNeng Power international, and several others such as Alibaba 9988The portfolio is actually not at it lowest, for the past 1 year, despite the HK tech meltdown, Russia War, and inflation fears.Looking back, the last 6 months provide several reflective points, which I will pen down 1) Portfolio should include both realised and unrealised profits and also cash.I used to ignore unrealised profits or loss in looking at my portfolio, and realised how foolish I have been. Several counters that I bought for a trading gains, like Geely, Alibaba, JD has gone from a profits to loss. Geely especially, has met target of 50 percent gains, and yet, I didn't do anything.&nb

 Self Reflection:Stock Market is a dangerous place. However, placing money in the bank would also erode value as the bank interest is near to nothing.The rule "Never lose money" would not be applicable to ordinary investors like myself, who bascially buy and hold.I am not a good stock picker as I had bought/sold some toxic stocks in the past. For example, Rickmers (41% loss), Hyflux (24% loss), Noble Group (15% gain)......There is also a 100% loss in Eagle HTr.  I took on a major project before Eagle's price collapsed.  As Murphy's law dictates, everything gone wrong, even the harddisk of my new laptop crashed with data non recoverable.  After I completed my project, then I found that Eagle has already been suspended. Luckily, only 1,000 shares involved from its IPO.Tal
