$Hang Seng Index (800000.HK)$ recorded a 27% increase in November, the largest monthly increase since 1998. The trend continued into early December and was further reinforced by rounds of policy easing of restrictions last week.
As China's epidemic policy is further relaxed, Wall Street's calls to buy Chinese concept stocks are getting louder.
Do you also want to share the benefits brought by emerging Chinese companies?

2021 is the first year i started to invest in stocks. What a rocky year to start off with🤣 l’d like to share my 3 biggest mistakes and experiences as a new investor.
First of all, I recalled that I had a dilemma - buy at all time high if not it will go higher and never come back down OR wait till it drops. It’s scary to see the price increasing higher and higher. I asked myself “do I buy now when it’s all time high or wait and buy when the price drops?” I waited only to see it increased 😂 and I hurried to enter the market to buy only to see it dropped and dropped further 🥲
One other mistake I made was not a very smart decision to buy shares of a single company with a lump sum and lastly, the mistake was to invest ALL my capital in my portfolio.
What’s wrong with the mistake above and what have I learned is that, firstly, I learned to ONLY buy what I can afford. When we see the price at all time high, we all hope for a discount but it can go either way so i have decided to BUY only if I can AFFORD to LOSE. Of course, I have to do homework to find out if it’s a good company that I can invest in for a long term.👍
Secondly, investing with a lump sum with all capital made me realise that I do not have enough cash to buy when the price drops for dollar cost averaging and i realised I have to keep checking on my account balance because I fear that I might blow my account.
So what I did was that I decided to sell one of the stocks that takes up a greater portion of my portfolio. And before I decide to sell, I was hoping that it will go up to breakeven. However it didn’t and I sell at a greater loss. Good news is that I was still able to preserve most of it. 🥲
This investment experience allows me to realise the importance of patience, value and risk management. I learned that the guts to selling stock (that is either going to harm your capital or losses its value) at a loss is also a must-have in order to prevent the losses from snowballing.
When I first started out, I focused on growth stocks. Now with the extra capital from what I sold as mentioned above, I invest part of it into SG dividend stocks, with the rest as back up capital. This allows me to not worry so much when the market crashes as I have the capital to dollar cost average. It also helped me to not frantically check on my portfolio every now and then, knowing that I have the capital to prevent margin call. Even if I lose all the money in stocks, part of it is still in cash (for future investment if there’s good stocks or dollar cost averaging) this allows me to have a peace of mind as I know I won’t be losing all of my money.
Stocks are for long term and investing a lump sum can bring quick cash but also increase the risk. Right now I learned how to manage risk and also allowing myself to hold stocks for long periods of time. I believe it’s personal risk and investment preference so i believe everyone has their own way of investing (market timing, lump sum, dollar cost averaging, etc). I hope I have shared some insights and also to remind myself of the things I learn and I hope moomoo will continue to provide good investment experience for us. Wishing everyone Merry Xmas and looking forward to 2022!

2021 is awesome because I started my investment journey... I selected Moo Moo as my desired investment platform due to several reasons, 1) Moo Moo offers user friendly interface, 2) lots of news, short quick articles and videos to level up my investment knowledge, 3) low charge fees for trading, and 4) offers free stocks! The journey so far using Moo Moo has been exceptionally pleasant.
For my investment portfolio, I diversify on several fronts.
I actively invest in Bank stocks including $OCBC Bank (O39.SG)$, $DBS Group Holdings (D05.SG)$, $UOB (U11.SG)$, which provide for great gains and dividends.
For Reits, I would recommend $CapLand IntCom T (C38U.SG)$, $CapLand Ascendas REIT (A17U.SG)$, $Suntec Reit (T82U.SG)$ and $Keppel DC Reit (AJBU.SG)$. Good source of high dividends.
Other SG stocks include $ST Engineering (S63.SG)$ and $SGX (S68.SG)$ are worth considering.
For US stocks, $Apple (AAPL.US)$ is definitely a good stock to invest in. I would expect the stock to rise further with the excitement over the release of the Apple Car in the near future. In the upcoming hype of the electric cars, stocks such as $NIO Inc (NIO.US)$, $Lucid Group (LCID.US)$ would probably gain traction over time. I previously bought NIO with the believe that the stock would soar in time.
For the HK market, $BABA-W (09988.HK)$ and $ICBC (01398.HK)$ are my targets. Alibaba is currently very much undervalued, thus expecting it to increase soon after recovery from its nosedive for a period.
All of the above stocks, I am adopting the long term investment mentality to gradually increase the volume for high dividend returns.
Patience and diligence is what I learnt through the process as I spent many days observing the stock trends to determine when would be the best time to enter the market.
With uncertainty over news of the Omicron variant, stocks seem to be bearish during this time, I see it as an opportunity to buy more during the dip. So far, I am happy with the performance of all my investment, laying the foundation for growth as the economy gradually recovers.
One cool thing I did was to sell the Twitter stock and use whatever funds to buy a biotech stock, $Longeveron (LGVN.US)$. This was the only one off instance that I traded based on luck with the strike lottery mindset. As in times of covid, biotech stocks tend to be rocketing high dynamically within a day. I made a decent profit out of it when the stock shot up. This was quite an experience.
Hope for all to invest well and into a Great 2022 ahead!

The Dec13 S&P daily chart looks like the three heads (4718, 4743, and 4713), and the prototype of a high-ranking head to shoulder (4495); yet the Fed has important data and policies released this week.
