Robo-Advisors

I plan on investing $300 monthly to grow my wealth. What should I invest in?

Do you think think that $100 DCA towards Nikko AM ETFs is worth it? I have read up about it and the dividends earned are rather limited as compared to other robo-advisors. I am currently 20 yo and is doing DCA ($200) towards Syfe's Equity 100. Should I just top up the $100 into Syfe or create a new portfolio for Syfe's REITS+? I plan on doing this for long (10+yrs) and would say that I have a medium risk appetite. Thanks for the help!

Hey there! I'm assuming you're referring to either Nikko's STI ETF or the Asia REIT ETF. While these are perfectly fine ETFs, do take note of the minimum lot sizes required as well as the brokerage fees and transaction charges that may apply with your investment. You may find that a $100 DCA will not be as cost efficient compared to investing with Syfe.

If you want some exposure to Singapore assets and / or dividends, why not consider Syfe REIT+? The portfolio holds 20 of Singapore's largest REITs and tracks SGX's iEdge S-REIT Leaders Index for consistent dividend yield (5.1% in 2019). Over 10+ years, you'll have accumulated significant holdings in these REITs even with a monthly investment of $100.

what to do, when you think of 100% longterm stock investing, then ETF ticker VT bought periodically with a zero fee (0.00 USD) broker like TD Ameritrade seems the lowest risk alternative.
