Raul Sanllehi Leaves Arsenal! Two Wasted Seasons for Arsenal.

Above is an interesting article. I've always suspected that not only does Arsenal's owners not care so much, but we have some "issues" in the leadership.

The article above hints of corruption at the top. If Raul had a hand in giving Unai Emery the role, I will be damned. 1.5 season of waste for Arsenal. 

We have the 3rd or 4th highest wage bill in Premiership but end up 8th in the league. We have a higher wage bill than Liverpool, league champions. 

I am more positive for season 2020 - 21 as it will be the first FULL season that Arteta will be in charge of Arsenal. Based on the stats below, Arsenal will be challenging for the Champions League place. We will be at least 6th or 5th even if we miss out on UCL and end up in Europa.

Season 3 with Arteta could see us finally back in the UCL. I'm hopeful. I've been a supporter of Arsenal since 1990 when Arsenal broke Liverpool's reign. It's been three decades of suffering. I've had some respite from 1997 - 2005 with Arsene Wenger. But it's been down hill since and I was hopeful that Arsene was finally sacked in 2017, but was devastated by Emery's performance. 

Let's hope Arteta can spark an Arsenal revival for the next 10 years. We deserve it.

My Funds Portfolio 14 Jan 2021

Image
  Below is the overall performance of my funds. For CPF, I put everything into funds. I refuse to buy SGD stocks because you should see the performance of MSCI Singapore below. In the last 1 year, the performance was down 5.9%. it is only this year that the performance went up slightly but it is still down. If I had used my CPF and cash to buy SGX listed companies I would have done at best 5% even with superior stock picking.   Look at the other indices. MSCI world is up 16.1%, S&P500 is up 18.0%, China is up 38.6%, Europe up 6.2%, MSCI Asia ex Japan up 28.2%. NASDAQ was of course the best performer with 44.7%. So the growth is NOT in Singapore. It is either in the US or Asia, mainly China. Even the best companies from Singapore are listed in NASDAQ, e.g. SEA Ltd. We have become the “forgotten man” or “sick Man” of Asia in terms of stock markets.       The average performance of my funds are 25.8%. this is unrealised return and doesn’t include realised gains. I’ve held them through

Lessons in Life

 I've worked with lots of people. Some are my good friends. I thought we could collaborate together. But somehow, maybe they found better opportunities elsewhere, decide to cast me aside and work with others. Some, don't add value but still want to be my equal partner. Others, limit their collaboration with me, denying me other opportunities.  The best way to act is to show every inch of gratitude I can to everyone. First, the one that opens doors and work with me wholeheartedly, I shall wholeheartedly contribute and ensure that the pie is greater than not dividing with me and working alone.  For those who opened a door and then decide to limit collaboration, I shall still be thankful, have gratitude. Whatever someone gives me in good faith, no matter how little, I shall still do my best.  For those who shut the door, I bear no grudges for I am thankful we have met.  This is the path I've chosen to walk, without regrets.

 My portfolio comprises stocks and funds from various gurus and teachers. Here is the description of each one. I shan't name them for fear of being accused of promoting one over the other.  Guru 1: 15 years of track record. Averaged 25% per year return. Highly transparent and informed me of every trade.  Result: from 23 Mar 21 to now.  4.8% return.  Guru 2: 10 years of track record with 30% return per year.

Personal friend. Made 3x in 2020 due to investments in speculative tech companies like SEA Ltd, Tesla, ARK Genomic Revolution, Lemonade, Square.  Result: - 13.2% Guru 4: 12 years of track record of around 7.7% return per year.
