Investment Choice for Recession

Inflation is at its peak, which is likely to invite FED to increase rate again anytime soon to curb the inflation. This will in turn lead to recession. Lower income, lower purchasing power, less purchase, less revenue and profits made by firm, and the downtrend continues.


Sound scary? The good thing is, recession is not forever. The economy will recover, and the firms will do better than before again [smile] 


In the meantime, what should we invest in then? As a safe choice, I recommend DCA into $Vanguard S&P 500 ETF(VOO)$on a regular basis (e.g. monthly). VOO is basically S&P 500 ETF, tracking the share price of top 500 US companies. This is supposed to be representative of US economy. A firm may underperform eventually, but it is unlikely a big economy like US will underperform in the long run.


Stay safe and invest safely!

    if know possible recession is coming, why don't sell away all shares and keep cash till the share price drop to a level that is attractive to us?

      market is unpredictable [smile] the attractive level to buy ib is subjective to many (do you define 200 as attractive, or 300 or 350?) and may not eventually happen [smile]

    VOO is good but singapore based investors will need to pay 30% withholding tax so maybe an ireland domicile etf will be better?
