As interest rate hiking comes closer to an end, quantitative tightening has gradually become another topic of market concern.
The central banks have only got a couple of experiences of QT. Japan did it in 2006 and 2007. The US did it from 2017 to 2019. During both periods, stock markets had above-average volatility.
Is quantitative tightening necessarily as scary as it seems?
■ First, the liquidity is far from scarce

Following the Bank of Japan's announcement of a more flexible approach to controlling 10-year government bond yields, with the 1% level being cited as a reference point now, Reuters reported last Thursday that BoJ Governor Kazuo Ueda is planning to exit the decade-long ultra-loose monetary policy at some point next year. The market is anticipating the end of Japan's easing policy.

Columns Long-Term U.S. Treasury Yields Soared to Their Highest Levels Since 2007; What Are the Implications?
The U.S. Treasury market - widely recognized as the world's most liquid - has experienced violent turbulence akin to junk stocks recently. The surge in long-term Treasury yields has been especially remarkable, as both the 10-year and 30-year U.S. Treasury yields reached their highest levels in sixteen years on October 3rd. Following a stronger-than-expected jobs report released on October 6th, the...

The rise in oil prices has made markets that were not worried about a soft landing more cautious. A recent survey conducted by Bloomberg found that most economists on Wall Street expect an economic downturn to occur within the next 12 months, with a likelihood of recession of approximately 60%.
Here are the reasons why economists found an economic soft landing dubious:

VineetKumarGupta OP 72464866 : You need to define what you mean by good investment ? What’s your time horizon for the investment ? How much drawdown you are willing to accept on invested amount ? Then you can zero in on an investment.
VineetKumarGupta OP 72464866 : Consistent dividend along with growth in NAV is matter of chance.
In my opinion, a young or middle age person shall focus on growth in NAV. An old person may find dividend a better option.
Do remember, unit trust dividend is paid out from NAV and is entirely different to stock dividend.
Typically equity can be volatile for 4-5 years. In case you are lucky, you may make more money viz. investing from the covid crash till so far.
In my humble opinion, next few years shall belong to debt and one can make decent money with a reasonable appreciation in NAV and with low risk.
I have invested in PIMCO GIS Income fund via Endowus and getting decent monthly dividend with small increase in NAV. This unit trust is less volatile than Allianz and investment is in solely investment grade bonds.
Hope this helps.
VineetKumarGupta OP 72464866 : I will suggest not to buy TLT as there is currency risk. Pimco GIS income has sgd hedged option and hence you know, what to expect in terms of returns and is the reason to invest in bonds.
I have no idea about SPYI. On checking I found it runs some strategies to generate returns. Normally I avoid such investments as they can be as risky as equity.
Do remember, any dividends paid by these ETFs will be subjected to 30% withholding tax for Singapore resident.
