There is a lot of talk on stocks but does anyone knows how bonds work in sgx? I understand that bonds have maturity dates. What happens when i buy a 10 year bond, at the 3rd year mark?

I would not have gotten the first 3 year coupons but is there anything else i should look out for?

Depends on your bonds, but most bonds get redeemed, and you get your capital plus outstanding interests (if any) back.

Some bonds never get redeemed (not your 10 yr bonds) and you get paid the coupon (interest) forever till you sell it off at secondary bond markets.

My 5 yr bond just matured, any suggestion what to invest in? Bonds/etf or stocks? I am 80% invested in etf, 10% in stocks and 10% in bonds (SSB).

I'm 28 years old, working for 4 years. I talked to a 26 year old colleague who knew a lot of different cultures and countries because of traveling, and has so many creative ideas. How do I catch up?

I have bought OCBC stocks using CPF before ex-div date and sold them before payment date. Dividend Payment date for OCBC is 5th June 2020, but i have not received it yet. Anyone know why?

Have anyone held a stock for more than 3 years? 5 years or even 10 years? How does it feel like and what you did to make yourself held on to it even when there are times you wanted to sell it?

Would like to start long term investment, 10 years or more. Are there stocks to buy and hold for long period, instead of keep selling and buying? Which online broker to consider?
