SG INVEST by ST-NEVE

Singapore’s very own Sea Limited, the parent company of Southeast Asia game provider  Garena , and the online e-commerce market,  Shopee has risen dramatically.  Due to the Pandemic which has made consumers to stay home more than usual, online shopping and online gaming has push this young tech start-up to dizzy heights.  I'm still shocked why there is not much buzz here in Singapore trending about SE. These are kind of stocks to take note when there is a crisis.  Like I document earlier on the stocks in my portfolio, I was watching it since last Dec 2019. An important factor that had my eye on it was there is significant financial backing from Tencent back in 2017.  Just like SEA motto of "connecting the dots", I was connecting the dots. I kept tabs on it and was watching very closely since Dec 2019.  The chance came when it nosedive in March 2020 and I went in.  Catching the perfect wave I hope you did too and good luck for the next winning st...

You know sometimes you just forget certain topics but after reading back, you would refresh certain concepts of the topic? That's why I buy and keep books to help refresh memories.  I also started reading a bit more when I was travelling extensively for work. I had to travel on long distance flights for 20+ hours for work. At first, I was just watching all the movies on the plane and that was so awesome. To watch movies released a few months earlier was like watching these movies for free. Whenever I see people reading on the plane, I would be chuckling to myself and wonder why would any one read on a plane?  But then, I go...
