STI ETF is no good choice, think of VOO or IVV. Single stocks we cannot successfully pick compared to a monkey.

Individual stocks:

  • If you are RIGHT, your returns can be quite significant. Other way round is true too.

  • Much more risk

ETF:

  • Growth potential more muted compared to individual stocks.

  • Lesser (unsystematic) risk

  • Usually requires lesser funds to invest in
