Generally, there are several reasons that hold back some investors from pumping in money in stocks trading:
Analysing a stock can be time consuming, as a thorough study on the technical and fundamental aspects of a stock is very crucial in stock picking.
Some stocks tend to be very volatile, as uncertainties such as news or announcements can bring a great impact to the share price within a short time.
Investing in multiple stocks cause contribute to a higher commission, as buying or selling each counter is charged separately.
Not every stock allows investors to buy and hold, as most of the stock price fluctuate based on the supply and demand of the stocks.
Portfolio diversification plays an important role in risk management of stock trading. Hence, it is time consuming to monitor each stock in investors’ portfolio.
Investing in unit trusts can be costly due to high management fee because it is highly monitored and managed by the fund managers.
ETF can act as an alternative to investors, as there are professional fund managers to select the basket of underlying assets where the fees are much cheaper than investing in unit trust. All the issues above can be solved, as it possesses the characteristics of unit trusts and stocks. Besides, investors can invest in TradePlus Shariah Gold Tracker ETF which is introduced to the market as the first-ever shariah-compliant commodity ETF in Malaysia now.
