What are you advise to a year 3 university students with around SGD10k-20k savings on investment?

For eg. go with high growth stocks, dividend stocks, or a combination, or others?

I’ve been diligently DCA into robo (StashAway) at least SGD200 a month. I’m holding a small portfolio (AMD, OPEN, NIO etc). I did some small time crypto trading as well.

Also, can I ask if there’s any recommendations on materials that might be useful to grow our investment knowledge?

For undergrads with this amount of savings, it will be difficult to build up a diversified portfolio of single stocks cost-effectively. Hence, diversified investment vehicles like a Robo-advisor or Global Stock ETFs would make more sense in my view.

While there is an allure in trying to stock pick to outperform the market, an assumed 5% outperformance at this portfolio size would be about $500 to $1,000. Considering the potential time and effort to achieve this, the effort to reward ratio might be not be practical.
