STI 3rd Year Trend

Today, we are looking at the 3rd year of every US presidential term and its impact on Singapore Stock Market - in particular, the Straits Times Index.

We talked about other investment opportunities too, links below:
S&P500 Investment Opportunity
Carl Icahn Activism Investment Opportunity - Icahn Lift
Singapore General Election Impact on SG Stock Market
2015 will be a Great Investment Year

Since 1999 to 2015, STI tends to slump in August.
It is followed by one of the biggest rallies of the year
This is the month to stay invested or start investing!
Buy when the market is going down, and hold for it to go up! (because it will go up)

Quote of the day:








Together with elections, the stock might go up because elections usually happen after a rally in the stock market.
Since the Singapore Election has been set on 11 September 2015, we can expect a pretty decent recovery before the election is up.
