The Straits Times has made a five-year comparison of Singapore and U.S. stocks the frame for a Nov. 2 podcast episode that also surveys investment products and portfolio choices.
The episode title characterizes Singapore shares as outperforming U.S. markets over that period. Its description says the discussion considers which market delivered higher returns. Emelia Tan, SGX’s director of capital market development, is the guest, with hosts See Kai Wen and Sue-Ann Tan.
The program covers the popularity of exchange-traded funds (ETFs), the types available on SGX and potential drawbacks of buying them. A segment compares the STI with the S&P 500. The episode outline then turns to SSBs and T-bills, followed by REITs and dividends.
The final listed segment concerns building an investment portfolio. The chapter markers place the market comparison at 12:03, the discussion of SSBs and T-bills at 16:27, REITs and dividends at 26:24, and portfolio building at 35:50.
