I started investing S$20,000 in 2021 to enter the US market at a small cost, then I lost 2/3 of my principal as expected, then I was discouraged, then it wasn't a good time to enter the Hong Kong market and add a small portion to the US market, where it fell and climbed up where hahaha, a year has passed, and until July of this year, I still get a bit of gain. I only read expert advice once in a while but don't follow the trend to buy any stocks. This is a lesson from my blood. I only choose big companies with basic fundamentals, such as $TRACKER FUND OF HONG KONG (02800.HK)$ $ICBC (01398.HK)$ $TENCENT (00700.HK)$ $Ping An Insurance (601318.SH)$ These are all heavy holdings in the US market, that is $Tesla (TSLA.US)$ $Amazon (AMZN.US)$ $Alphabet-A (GOOGL.US)$ There's also the one I already have $Rivian Automotive (RIVN.US)$ (This is a profitable buy) It's profitable, but I personally think I rarely pay attention to finance, so based on the lessons of the years, I now choose stocks of large companies with higher dividends to prevent current trading, set a buying target for myself first, then set a profit target, then set a profit target, then sell when the profit target is reached, then choose to make up my position higher...

$ComfortDelGro (C52.SG)$ I'm exhausted. Even with high oil prices, the price is still the same. Now that oil prices have fallen, it's still the same price. Stock selection is really a mysterious art.

103068318 OP sTone83 : Actually, I just want everyone to know that stocks are actually also an investment act that must be profitable or loss-making if everyone makes money they will be misled into thinking that it's easy to make money by trading stocks, in fact, it's really not easy to have a mentality that's really not easy.
103068318 OP YC Xiao : It's true that bank stocks did not go well this year, but I'm a retail investor and I usually pay little attention to the market and choose bull stocks, so I really need a bit of luck and mentality. If bank stocks are sluggish this year, I'm slowly accumulating that as long as you don't go bankrupt, it's better to collect interest every year than keep your money in banks
