As a dividend investor, I am considering a purchase in ES3.SI for its relatively higher dividend yield of about 4%.
It contains many companies that have a strong moat in Singapore such as $DBS GROUP HOLDINGS LTD(D05.SI)$ ,$SEMBCORP INDUSTRIES LTD(U96.SI)$ and REITs that hold prime real estate within and outside the country.
With the US Central Bank begining to consider rate cuts, I am confident that REITs would be able to refinance higher interest rate loans for cheaper and allow for more sustainable future development and growth.
With that tangent aside, I like the idea that I would be able to spread out my risk by diversifying into 30 companies with one ETF. Although that number is small compared to ETFs that track the S&P 500 with 500 companies, I believe that the strong moat these companies provide more than make up for the reduced holdings.
Remember to do your due diligence and happy investing! [Happy]
