    Hahahaha! Anyway taking reference from TH it's a good time to do dollar cost averaging and pick up good reits now amidst these uncertainties.

    dollar cost averaging is a con-job strategy by insurance agent

    just look at how GIC/Temasek performed dollar cost averaging for all the subprime banks

    if you dollar cost average since Nikkei was at 30k ... God bless

    Old news, never appear in our media:

    2009:

    Temasek, the Singapore state investment company, sold out of its shareholdings in Barclays this year, making an estimated £500m ($814m) loss on its investment.

    By contrast, Abu Dhabi-based International Petroleum Investment Corp generated a healthy profit from its Barclays investment. IPIC sold its entire holding of 1.3bn shares on Tuesday, turning a £3.5bn investment into £5bn in seven months.

    That is 800 peanuts lost

    Temasek still owns 18.1% of SCB ... don't think is profitable

    and we all know GIC investment in Citi/UBS is a disaster, the cost of Citi share is 3.25USD .... now left 2.68USD ... and we have not even counted currency exchange loss lol

    i got a simple question here....

    not talking about what had happened in the past few years, talking about from now onwards only....

    imagine if you are running TH and GIC, your task is to invest oversea all the foreign reserve to stabilize the sing dollars...

    where would you put the $$, if it has to be outside s'pore...
    of course you have to diversify a bit, but where would be your bigger gun aiming at??
    - other countries govt bonds?
    - UST?
    - Gold & silver?
    - Shares & companies? (and what type? banks? tech? commodity? infra-strutcure)
    - Commodity?
    - Real Estates?

    just curious about what you guys think....

    for me, i would prefer buy up all the hard physical raw materials, oil, metal, wood, chemicals & food (like china) but this crab island does not even have a manufacturing base now...

    Time to get out of China financial services shares then.
    Temasek and GIC always invest too early....try to catch falling knives...
    their record recently is 'stellar' in this regard...
