Wouldn't it be good to know exactly when it'll happen?

Sadly we can't predict it'll happen. A recession has been 'due' since 2016. If you didn't invest then, you would have missed out on the crazy growth since Trump took over.

So we shouldn't time the market. Just stay invested. And buy more when markets go down.

Time in the market rather than timing the market.

Should I wait for the recession to happen or just ignore the inverted yield curve and upcoming recession and start investing?

When should we start investing if everyone is saying there will be a bear market soon? Should we wait for the bear market?

I constantly hear about the importance of diversifying your portfolio when it comes to investment. What would be considered a diversified portfolio?

I have approx $7300, looking to buy into tech stocks in US - is it a good time now, or is recession going to hit soon so I should invest in defensive industries?

Is investing in STI ETF (via RSP) worth it, particularly when there’s talk of a coming recession in Singapore?
