Hey Mooers,
Welcome back from my previous post 'Is it getting crazier out there?'!
On today's topic, we will be discussing on how to earn more SG Moolah with your idle SGD cash.
For this, we will focus on one particular money market fund: $Fullerton SGD Cash Fund (SG9999005961.MF)$
Here, I have extracted the 'Historical Return' data for the Fullerton SGD Cash Fund.

A historic surge of cash has swept into exchange-traded funds, spurring asset managers to launch new trading strategies that could be undone by a market downturn.
This year's inflows into ETFs world-wide crossed the $1 trillion mark for the first time at the end of November, surpassing last year's total of $735.7 billion, according to Morningstar Inc. data. That wave of money, along with rising markets, pushing global ETF assets to nearly $9.5 trillion, more than double where the industry stood at the end of 2018.
Most of that money has gone into low-cost U.S. funds that track indexes run by Vanguard Group, $Blackrock (BLK.US)$ and $State Street (STT.US)$, which together control more than three-quarters of all U.S. ETF assets. Analysts said rising stock markets, including a 25% lift for the S&P 500 this year, and a lack of high-yielding alternatives have boosted interest in such funds. $Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Etf (FBCG.US)$ $SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY.US)$
You have this historical precedent where you have tumultuous equity markets, and more and more investors have made their way to index products.”
--- said Rich Powers, head of ETF and index product management at Vanguard.
Follow me to know more about ETFs
Asset managers long known for running mutual funds are rushing to take advantage of investors' interest in active ETFs. More than half of the record 380 ETFs launched in the U.S. this year are actively managed.
--- according to FactSet.
Fidelity, Putnam and $T. Rowe Price (TROW.US)$ are among the firms that have rolled out actively managed ETFs in 2021. Firms new to ETFs have also entered the fray. The top 20 fastest-growing ETFs, largely run by Vanguard and $Blackrock (BLK.US)$, this year pulled in nearly 40% of all flows, charged an average fee of less than 0.10 percentage point and tracked benchmarks of some sort.
Many active ETFs remain comparatively small and charge fees higher than passive funds, putting a swath of new products at risk of closing over the next several years. ETFs usually need between $50 million and $100 million in assets within five years of launching to become profitable, analysts and executives say; funds below those levels have tended to close.
Of the nearly 600 active ETFs in the U.S., three-fifths have less than $100 million in assets; more than half are below $50 million.
--- according to FactSet data.
You' re going to see a lot of those firms take a hard look at their future.”
--- said Elisabeth Kashner, FactSet’s director of ETF research.
Analysts also said the success of ARK Investment Management Chief Executive Cathie Wood in 2020 showed how active ETFs can score big returns and pull in substantial sums of money. Several of ARK's funds doubled last year, and its assets approached $60 billion earlier this year, though many of its bets have slumped in 2021. $ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK.US)$ $ARK Genomic Revolution ETF (ARKG.US)$
Most other active managers aren't doing much better. Two-thirds of large-cap managers of mutual funds have fallen short of benchmarks this year, while roughly 10% of the 371 U.S. active ETFs with full-year performance data are beating the S&P 500. More than a third are flat or negative for 2021.

Stock futures opened little changed on Thursday after investors pulled back from the market rebound earlier in the week and turned their focus to inflation data due out Friday.
The moves came after the major averages ended the regular trading session lower, each snapping a three-day win streak. The $Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI.US)$, moved less than a point lower, finishing at the flatline. The $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ fell 0.7% and the tech-heavy $Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$ lost 1.7%. Nevertheless, all are on track to finish the week higher.
Jobless claims data released on Thursday showed the labor market recovery remains strong. The Labor Department reported initial claims for unemployment insurance , below the 211,000 estimated by economists surveyed by Dow Jones and the lowest reading since 1969.

Hey, mooers! Here are things you need to know before the opening bell:
- Stock futures were little changed early Friday after investors pulled back from the market rebound earlier in the week and turned their focus to inflation data due later in the day.
- Top executives and company leaders like the Waltons, Mark Zuckerberg and Google's co-founders have sold $63.5 billion through November, up 50% from 2020. The sales come amid soaring market valuations and ahead of possible changes in U.S. and some state tax laws.
