THAI BEVERAGES STOCK: THE TAKEAWAYS FOR INVESTORS
Dear readers, Thai Beverages stock headed south by about 7.27% yesterday after reporting a set of disappointing results. Thai Beverages stock closed at $0.76 and I believe the sudden southward move of the stock must have caught many investors surprised.
Thai Beverages stock is one of the STI constituent stocks and for investors who believe that all STI constituent stocks are fundamentally safe and are good to hold for the long time, I hope that the performance of Thai Beverages stock would have sent a timely reminder to you that STI stocks, being still stocks are susceptible to the vagaries of the stocks markets.
And not forgetting some of those former STI constituent stocks are now trading at a fraction of the previous high prices which these stocks used to command. Just think of stocks like Sembcorp Industries and Sembcorp Marine to name a few.
As such where it comes to forming the core of your investing portfolio, I would recommend an index fund like STI ETF which is defensive and for which you could ride through the vagaries of the stocks markets like what the stocks markets are going through now with a peace of mind.
