The ETF trades like a normal stock on the SGX.. YOU can buy it like any stock through your broker.
My broker shows it as
The relevant intrinsic value is
So you can buy and sell the s67 which is the ETF , the present value of all the stocks the etf holds (NAV) is published as a pseudo stock the (s87) the ETF IOPV .
Today the ETf is trading at 28.9 while its NAV is 29.0 - not much difference. At a dividend yeild of around 3.5 i dont think the STI is overvalued or undervalued. A good time to buy and hold for the next ten years if you are happy with the expected 10% annualised returns with 20% ups and downs in the meanwhile.

That was an enlightening post! How do you buy into ETF?
Thanks!
From the SGX site i saw the performance of the street tracks etf.
So around 11% over the next business cycle is what you should expect.
I think the outperformance of the ETF over the index is simply because of dividend reinvestment. The index seems to ignore the dividends paid by the companies in the index. Assuming the div yeild is around 3-4% the higher returns for the the ETF seem about right.
So to summarise , I really have no idea where the ETF will go next year , but from this boom to the next similar point in the business cycle maybe 10 years from now I feel it should give 11% or so. So in your retirement account if you have 10 years to retire you may hold this instead of fixed deposits.

I follow a simple high ROE high div yeild, low debt strategy.
My stocks are selected on simple numerical criterion.
I feel that the high dividend yeild and low debt (exception made for banks) strategy offers me some protection from downside.
Dividends are always reinvested into the stocks that paid them. I track total returns instaed of only price changes.
my present holdings are

Thats all, I intend to own 10 stocks and review them once a year.

It Pays to be Lazy...
The Abv mentioned strategy would work even better u if enter at Bottom of a Bear Market.
IF $ is concerned, just buy the top 3 or 5 biggest dividend paying (in term of % yield) co. among the TOp 20 co. in STI. but make sure to spread your $ equally among the 3 or 5 counters. Example. If u got 30k, each counter would be 10 or 6k each.
