If anyone has recommended you to buy STI ETF, ask them why.
Diversification? Relative performance (to what?)? Over what time horizon?
As investors, we invest with one goal in mind -> to make money

Comparison over bank stocks and one legendary blue chip (SGX)
Poorest performance post 08 crisis has been STI and the best DBS.
Post covid crisis – Flow seems to point to bank stocks being the preferred held asset (in relation to the rest plotted).
Will this be the case in the future? No idea, but if you look closely, DBS post covid has a higher demand than the rest of the other bank stocks.
Might be something you want to watch out for.
Happy thanksgiving!...
