Hi all, I'm 31 and I just started learning about investment. My objective is long term investment with capital growth and earning some income through dividends. Is my current portfolio balanced or am I losing focus from my objective?

Below is my portfolio:

  • DCA STI ETF at $300/mth since 2015
  • DCA Stashaway at $200/mth since Sept18
  • holding 50 units of IWDA ETF and planning to DCA qtly
  • holding 2500 units of N2IU
  • Holding 10k of SSB
  • holding 8 months of emergency cash

I need some advice pls:

1) Should i stop my STI ETF and hold the fund?
2) Is my current portfolio balanced or am I losing focus from my objective?
3) Should I save up and buy more variety of dividends/growth stocks or should I build on my existing ones?

Rid most of it. consolidate your portfolio. it seems to be a very haphazard blend of instruments. You have the time essence, so go into longer term growth. I have got net 17% returns for my client's last year.

One of the ways to gauge your performance is to rate it against an index, it could be S&P500, Nasdaq, STI index.

This is how i would gauge my portfolio performance.

This will give you some sense of how you have done so far and it will answer the 3 questions ā€‹ā€‹ā€‹

My take, if you really want capital growth and dividend income, research on 2 classes of stocks call...
