Not too sure about this. Just a measly 3.4% yield to take on PE risk. Past results notwithstanding

[Tangsen]

If you have 100K .... which you put in?

[p1acebo]

Max the SSB first. 200k all in. Super safe but lower yield. I think 10 years should be around 2.29% or even lower these days.

I have these 2, collect dividend can but forget about capital gain.

Astrea VI3% was below $1 for a start 


Astrea7A1 4.125%    Current price 1.034
Astrea VI3%              Current price $1.016

3.4% is not a reason gd enough to buy this astrea 9
apply 2sgd fees wait for 5 yrs get ard 17% max
bear market coming 
wait for opportunity in the next ard 2 yrs to buy blue chips can get more than 4% n capital gain.
dont forget pap pump in 5b to prop up sgx market
they hv to make sure by hook or by crook to show show results not allowing sgx market to be a lifeless market!!

[hansamu]

Given the miserable FD rates now, 3.4% looks relatively good.
But again nobody knows....anything can happen.

NTT touted to be a likely IPO winner...Now??
Sigh.

[talky]

given today political n chaotic situation
better use the money to buy gold etf 
17% n more on  capital gain in 5 yrs is possible

Is it possible to flip for this Astrea?

[Tangsen]

Guess no one is interest

[Tangsen]

Looks like this bond is as cold as water ....

[talky]

Is it possible to flip for  this Astrea?

not possible
need to pay at least 8.80sgd ,cheapest brokage to sell
astrea bonds are not for flipping as capital gain is not enough to pay for brokages
unless u are changing to a different astrea bonds

Revert to $1

[hansamu]

Given pitiful FD rates in the market now, 3.4% looks decent.
Unlikely to sink...worst case scenario just dump there and collect 6 monthly interest for 5 years.
At least higher than CPF ordinary rate of 2. 5%.

Of course, assuming you have the allotment. Lol

Will it end up like hyflux?

[talky]
