70% businesses raise salaries: How to invest or spend?
Views 7985 Contents 17

buy into businesses so that those salaries goes into my pocket hehe

I do feel the benefit of rising salary however, I note that the rising salary is very skewed towards the tech sectors. That's the issue with statistics, they only report average increase but with tech increasing 100% but the rest staying the same, it looks as though everyone is benefiting from it.
Generally speaking when salary increases, it would be good news to the economy which in turns means good news for the stock market. Why? Because the economy is made up of nothing but transactions (a.k.a buying stuff). And when people are buying lots of stuff, that means company are earning more, which in turns will push up their share price due to higher earnings.
However, if the increase in salary does not create an increase in transactions (i.e. everyone just save everything) then that will be a problem. From what I see, people with more salary do spend more instead of saving more. So if I were to get more salary, I will invest more. Why? Because this way, I'm buying businesses that take more money from them, which in turns will put their money into my pocket hehehehehe
some thoughts on what i might buy when I have more money:
$Futu Holdings Ltd(FUTU.US)$ $UP Fintech(TIGR.US)$ $SGX(S68.SG)$ since people with more money would more likely do more investment, so these companies could have more revenue moving forward
$Grab Holdings(GRAB.US)$ when people earn more, they would more likely take private transport then public transport. plus, they would order in more. why? cause time = money. so they would pay more just to save time.
$Sea(SE.US)$ $LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton(LVMHF.US)$ when people have more money, they are gonna spend more money and usually they will buy more luxury item. so yea companies that sell stuffs should benefit.
not financial advise ah, do your own DD

  • TRIUMPHANT RETURNS : none of the above xcept lvmh pay a dividend...how earnings go into your pocket?

  • doctorpot1OP TRIUMPHANT RETURNS: if you track many companies that pays dividend, they starts off as growth company where all the money they earn goes back into the business to grow first. e.g. Apple don't pay dividend until only recently.
    So where is the earnings if no dividend is given back? that is in future share prices or when they hit the peak of growth then they start paying out dividend.

    I do own quite a number of dividend paying company on my portfolio too.If you prefer dividend paying company that benefits from increase salaries, that still have some upside, could consider retail and hospitality REITs. Those are still undervalued imo undefinedundefined

  • TRIUMPHANT RETURNS :

  • TRIUMPHANT RETURNS : marfrig global alone beat all reits...any reits with PE below 5 n pay 13% dividend yield? Marfrig is the largest hamburger patties producer. no 4 meat producer

  • doctorpot1OP TRIUMPHANT RETURNS: the risk profile is very different therefore the ratio and yield is different undefined with REIT it is by law that 90% of their income must be distributed as dividend but for companies, they can choose not to do so.
    Most of the stock are mostly priced in already, so if investors are demanding such a yield that would mean that they factored in some risk. but hope the company will continously provide such high dividend so you can fatten your wallet hahahah undefinedundefined
