Oh...I was intended to ask if there is any reward if I hit the jackpot.

My example
Real compound return above inflation or GDP growth rate whichever is higher of 6% with capital loss no more than 15% in 5y time
So if inflation 4% GDP growth 3%, nominal return will be 10% compound per year
This is how temasek gic works.
I would bet on commercial storage unit in anticipation of e-commerce.

sorry to hijack the thread ... please do continue to make your own prediction. My key point is predicting is one thing, execution is another. One can predict can just lucky, but consistent performance over the years can never be because of luck.
I quote example, Temasek TSR % (total shareholder return), even if you don't understand what is TSR you can see it is getting more difficult to generate decent returns

from another angle;
GIC said its 20-year return was 6.8 percent (nominal) in USD terms
The annualized rolling 20-year real rate of return, which takes into account inflation, was 3.9 percent
The bigger you are the harder it is
URA PPI index last 20y if include rental yield, should roughly return 7% pa too
So in next 20y... what do u think? Did u see the Hard Truth :p
phantom_opera
01-01-13, 14:49
ok lah bro BJ style ... the hard truth is: you better pray GIC/Temasek has > 10% return in next 20y
as SG population ages ... more and more government budget needs to be funded by return from GIC/Temasek ... less and less will be allocated for growth
no growth no property price increase :banghead: be very worried that Temasek TSR in last 5y is only 3% vs TSR of 10% last 10y
now you understand why MM Lee said Singaporeans are DAFT

now ... finally I will reveal the rule 1 of the phantom of the opera:
long term property market return in Singapore cannot outperform Temasek TSR within the same period unless you are even better than Temasek, if so, IRAS will invite you to drink kopi to ensure you contribute back to Temasek :ashamed1:
:p
One of the Taiwanese stock guru said that he cant predicts what will be the performance of the stock mkt as the financial world mkt is getting too complex. But he wants all investors to know there is this BILDERBERG organsation , the world biggest manipulator in stock mkt , FX etc. He keeps repeating BILDERBERG BILDERBERG to warns investors what this organisation is capable of doing that will bring financial disaster to us.
These people (organisation) are always in the shadow making decisions which affect us all, the rich get richer and everyone else suffers.
It warns that the Bilderberg is fostering a false sense of recovery of the economy, suckering investors to plunge back into the stock market to only unleash another massive downturn which will create “massive losses and searing financial pain
These groups wants one language, one regilion, and one currency like the euro in europe and reduce the population from 8 billion to 4.5 billion.
For those potential marginal property investors, you need to be very careful if you want to follow the HERD to buy a property NOW to hedge against inflation. You are buying at so call a "HIGH FLOOR" price or "HIGH PE stock" price.
For those who are 1st time buyer. It is every SINGAPORE birth RIGHT to buy a subsidised BTO or new EC which is 30% to 40% cheaper than a resale. Unless you earn > 12k/mth.
Quiet a few D16 property investors who bought in 1997 & 1999 managed to breakeven after holding for 12 to 15 yrs. It has not include the property tax , maintenace fee , mortgage loan interest , renovation , repairing etc which you paid for the last 12 to 15 yrs. In fact U are losing money.
Patience is a virtue & If you can manage your emotional well. Buy big blue chip (dividend stk) when there is extreme fear. You can be a winner against inflation. EVery year, there are one to two big correction. Every few years, there will be big CRASH in stock mkt. You will be rewarded if U are patience enough to wait mths or years.

I agree and am putting words into action. Not buying any property in 2013 and am slowly liquidating my stocks. Selling stocks very very slowly, starting from today.
I am just a layman, using my gut feel in personal investment.
the best move is.....
"do nothing"
HAHAHAHA :D:D:D

I'm happy to note that I perform better than Temasek, since I lim'ed kopi with IRAS. ;-)
