Investor Movement Index for SG clients drops to 6.10 in April

The drop was attributed to the "light" demand for equities at the beginning of the month.

TD Ameritrade’s Investor Movement Index (IMX) for its Singapore clients dropped to 6.10 in April, from a previous score of 6.13 in March.

The MAS-licensed broker said the drop in the index was likely due to the "light" demand for equities at the beginning of April which eventually accelerated as major "U.S. market indices continued their strong pullback below key support levels."

Overall, TD Ameritrade said their SG clients were "cautious," but were "net buyers of equities overall." Most of them engaged in light selling in the Materials, Healthcare Utilities, and the Consumer Staples sectors. Of the four sectors, only Consumer Staples finished the month in positive territory.

SG investors also favoured some high beta semiconductor names, such as NVIDIA Corp. (NVDA) and Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (AMD), according to TD Ameritrade.

Apart from NVDA and AMD, most SG investors also bought stocks from Twitter Inc. (TWTR), Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN), and SoFi Technologies Inc.; and sold their shares in American Airlines Group Inc. (AAL), Exxon Mobil Corp. (XOM), Pfizer Inc. (PFE), Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. (WBD), and Walmart Inc. (WMT).

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers.

The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
