What to invest in Singapore since stocks are going up and down in Trump's Tarrif

Here’s a solid list for Singapore-based investors:


πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡¬ 1. Lion-OCBC Securities Hang Seng TECH ETF (SGX: HST or HSS)

  • Focus: 30 largest tech-themed Chinese companies listed in HK (like Tencent, Alibaba, JD.com, Meituan, etc.)

  • Why it's good now: Tech in China is cheap after regulatory pressure — long-term upside if you're patient.

  • Volatility: High

  • Expense Ratio: ~0.68%

  • Currency: SGD (HSS) or USD (HST)


🌐 2. Nikko AM ARK Disruptive Innovation Fund (Available via FSMOne, Endowus, etc.)

  • Fund Manager: Cathie Wood’s ARK Invest

  • Focus: Genomics, AI, robotics, energy storage, fintech

  • Why now: High risk, high potential — invest gradually via DCA if you're bullish long-term.

  • Currency: SGD hedged and unhedged classes available


🌏 3. iShares Asia 100 ETF (SGX: O9P)

  • Not pure tech, but includes top companies in Asia with tech exposure (like TSMC, Samsung, Tencent)

  • Why now: Diversified, more stable than pure tech — good for balance in volatility.

  • Expense Ratio: ~0.50%

  • Currency: USD


🧠 4. Access US Tech via SGD through Robo or Brokers:

You can get exposure to US tech giants even from Singapore. Options include:

  • FSMOne ETFs: QQQ, VGT, ARKK — available via FSMOne with low minimums.

  • Endowus: Offers access to tech-weighted global equity funds (e.g., Dimensional, PIMCO, etc.)

  • Syfe REIT+ with Tech Tilt: Hybrid REIT and global tech allocation


πŸ›‘️ Bonus: Stable Global Tech-Heavy Funds (SGD Classes)

  • Fidelity Global Technology Fund

  • BlackRock World Technology Fund

  • Franklin Technology Fund

These are available via fund platforms (e.g., Endowus, Dollardex, POEMS) and are denominated in SGD or hedged classes.
