Money and Me: Small Cap Surge could continue, 3 new CPFIS Funds, and Market Risks

Hosted by Michelle Martin with guest Cheng Chye Hsern, Head of Investing at Providend, this episode delves into the recent performance of the Russell 2000 small cap index, which has surged 10% since July 8, compared to the flat S&P 500. They discuss factors driving this trend and the potential for further growth in small caps. Michelle and Cheng Chye Hsern explore the concentration risk in the S&P 500 and the Straits Times Index, providing strategies for Singapore investors to mitigate these risks. They also cover the launch of Dimensional Fund Advisors' CPFIS-approved funds and how investors can incorporate these into their portfolios. Lastly, they review the market performance in the first half of 2024 and key events that could impact the second half.
