• ZnWC : Hi Fiona @上海白砂糖 can you share how you select stocks for the paper trading? Do you invest for long position or short selling or both?

• 上海白砂糖 ZnWC : In the paper trading, I primarily selected popular stocks with high market volatility. Below are some of my trading logics
  - The choice of APX was mainly based on the fact that negative news had been fully digested in the earlier stage + a trend reversal + the popularity of the artificial intelligence sector + high market attention.
  - The choice of CTT was based on the company’s strong performance + the long-term existence of social stratification, which gives the luxury goods industry an advantage for long-term survival and development + observing prior price actions indicated potential high volatility + the earlier sell-off due to negative news is unlikely to have a significant impact on the company’s fundamentals (thus, a price recovery can be expected when positive news emerges) + changes in institutional holdings.
  - The choice of mining stocks like MIN was primarily based on a series of stimulus measures from China.

• 每天都在學習中 : Hi Fiona... I am similar to you... Risk management is higher than return... 70% of my funds are used to invest in a good company with a solid fundamental for the long term.$Apple (AAPL.US)$ $Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM.US)$ $Tesla (TSLA.US)$ $CommBank (CBA.AU)$ Looking at short-term investments elsewhere... I feel that different assets should not be placed in the same market... Also, controlling one's own greed... Maybe I'm not an expert... But friends and family around me who make money from investments are all long-term investors...

• Drgon Empty Drg CasualInvestor : Be honestly, some different between of them. As mental issue, I have to say it should adjust by yourself, that’s very very hard to control it. Of cause, when you do the paper trading you gonna be over brave. Which means when we do real trading, you just set how much I am in before you ready to in. For the paper and real, you just have only one thinking is direction, whatever, you sell or you buy, you just focus direction you choose, paper is only the one let you trading more money.

  What do you suggest to overcome this fear of learning to invest or start investing if one do not have much income to start out?

• Syuee : Thank you, Bursa Operator, for inspiring us with your story. I agree that property monthly rental yield is a great source of passive income. Essentially, you're making money while you sleep!
  My question is: How do you aim to diversify your portfolio with commodities in the future?

• Bursa Operator Syuee : Hello Syuee,
  I'll start off by emphasizing I've not traded commodities before, but will be doing so in the future as an investment as I'd like to self-learn how it works.
  In the past 4 years, I've observed commodities are largely driven by development around the world. Keeping up on global news and analyzing its chain of reactions would be a good start. Some examples:
  1. Right about when the world was recovering from Covid, there was a shortage of steel due to manufacturers were closed, and a boom in demand for development. In particular, property development in China was rampant causing a short supply of steel which in turn tripled-quadrupled its price. Fast forward to today, demand and prices for steel have plummeted with many developments (in China) cancelled.
  2. Russia invasion of Ukraine caused the price of wheat to shoot up by about 20% as both countries are one of the largest wheat exporters in the world. The high price sustained for half a year before other countries increased their supplies to cater to the global shortages. The same can be said for oil, but I wouldn't discuss much as OPEC has shown multiple times over the past year, it will dictate its supplies to control market price.
  3. Similarly, extreme weather climate has affected cocoa output in Africa since last year, and palm oil harvest in Malaysia & Indonesia in 2021.
  Looking ahead for the year, prices for metals such as gold & silver should remain elevated for reasons like decreased in US dollar value due to Fed rate cut, stagflation, ongoing wars, and China economic downturn. The golden question to ponder is, with all these happening in the world, can one anticipate and invest ahead? If I knew, I'd have been at Seychelles basking under the sun enjoying the open sea view by now.
  Stay updated with global happenings.
