Satrix40 ( Simon can u assist plz)

[#1]

I want to get into satrix40 now and just want to know how would you go about it, I know u said in the training session last time go in piece by piece, do you think its a good time to get in now or is it to high? Regards

is teh market too high? Is this a good time to buy? No idea, not even a little idea. I have twice had lump sums to put into STX40 and both times I put the money in over a period of time, and both times the strong market made that wrong as I ended up losing money by not investing all up front. BUT it is a risk assessment and I would do the same again.

The monthly subscription option with a long term view appeals much more to me. You could even deposit lump sums when the market 'allows' it.

The management costs are lower when you deposit monthly. And you can add lump sums into your account as someone mentioned. We've started 2 years ago and haven't looked back, even increased our monthly contribution.
