Stop Buying The Wrong Bank (6 Jan SGX Stock News) 🦖
🟩 The Straits Times Index (STI) has just smashed through 4,728 points, hitting staggering all-time highs, yet many investors are looking at their portfolios and wondering why they aren't seeing the same green returns. We are witnessing a historic bull run fueled by AI optimism and robust GDP growth, but a rising tide does not lift all boats equally.

In this video, I break down exactly what this record-breaking momentum means for your money. We analyze the massive turnaround story for Digital Core REIT (DCRU) and why the "Ghost Facility" risk is finally dead. I also address the heated debate in our community regarding the B
Operation Starfall: Why the US Capture of Maduro Changes Your 2026 Portfolio |🦖EP1359 #investingiguana
🟩 The removal of Nicolás Maduro has sent shockwaves through the market, with retail investors rushing to buy into the "Venezuela Rebuild" narrative. Everyone is expecting a massive boom for offshore marine stocks like Seatrium, betting on billions in infrastructure spending.

If you are a retiree relying on bank dividends or holding onto REITs without understanding the new financing realities, you might be exposed to significant downside risk just as the market dynamics decouple. In this video, we tear apart the numbers behind the "Banking Divide," analyzing why DBS's record run might be flashing a rare valuation red flag compared to the hidden value proposition seen in OCBC. We also dive deep into Keppel REIT’s controvers
The “Iggy Paradox”: Why I Said “Hoard Cash” and “Buy Stocks” on the Same Day | 🦖EP1354
🟩 Are you confused when market analysts say "cash is king" one day, then recommend buying stocks the next? If you've ever felt whiplash from seemingly contradictory investment advice—bearish on Monday, bullish on Wednesday—you're not alone.
