Exactly!!! It's great that someone else has a sense of humour too!
I used 1H2012 as my index 100 (and poke)
You shared different time scales as index 100
Imagine if someone takes March 2009 as index 100? STI is still in a bull market what!
I think the other thread on investing returns is getting a bit surreal. And a bit too technical.
Our investment returns has little to do with the STI index (unless you bought the ETF), or knowing the "average" returns of others.
It's what stocks we have picked and at what price we have paid for them.
Even if STI were to go to 2,900, "investors" who are holding on to cyclicals like NOL, Hyflux, Olam, etc; are still sucking their thumbs in their fetal position (unless they bought in 2009).
One more choo choo train up and I'll find a cave to hibernate
Hey,
i got NOL. And i am thinking of speculating in Wilmar & Noble. May even consider Olam. i am getting greedy again. (Don't forget to sing BEE GEE's song - "Don't forget to remember") If ever fiat monies become worth less and less, what do you think will worth more and more? (Trying to KK here. Pretending to be a Jim Roger imitation from Sinkapore)

	
WB:-
1) Rule # 1, do not lose money.
2) Rule # 2, refer to # 1.
3) Not until you can manage your emotions, you can manage your money.
Truism of Investments.
A) Buying a security is buying RISK not Return
B) You can control RISK (to a certain level, hopefully only.) But definitely not the outcome of the Return.
NB:-
My signature is meant for psychoing myself. No offence to anyone. i am trying not to lose money unnecessary anymore.
