Dear readers, what a week (2 to 7 May 2022) it has been for investors! First, the US Federal Reserves increased interest rates by the highest in 22 years. Thereafter, days after, the US stocks markets plunged by as large as 4.99% (for NASDAQ) and the Dow Jones also went south in one of the worst performances since year 2020 in that single session.
While some investors may not still understand what is to come for the global stock markets, prominent investor Peter Schiff summed it up brilliantly in his analysis here.
Though I am a retail investor and not a professional investor like Peter Schiff, I have also shared my perspective on what investors should do next right here.
Armed with my good and disciplined financial and investing knowledge, I was recently perturbed by an incident that challenges these, find out what this episode was right here.
Amidst all the volatilities in the stock markets, it still is rewarding to be savers. I have shared with readers on a financial product that is akin to Singtel in terms of dividend yields but with capital preservation features, find out more about this product here. And then there is Astra 7 bonds coming up, more details of these bonds here.
With interest rates going up, saving returns offered by banks and financial institutions will be in general headed up. I would urge readers not to be too lured by these returns to find themselves with liquidity all locked up in these accounts, with no “ammunition” left to take advantage in the next global stock financial meltdown!
Have a Good Sunday!
