Hi Kelvin, can you advise me how do I find out the ISIN number of the T-bills? I click on the bond but it only shows a graph. Sorry for the possibly dumb question I am a beginner.
Kelvin , how to invest in oil and index cfd through ibkr ?
Finally some information for non-us residents! Much appreciated!
Exactly what I was looking for! Love this channel
very useful guide. Thanks!
Thank you soooo much that is the first expl that made sense
Great video. Can you also touch on the FX impact. Thanks
thank you kelvin, you are master bro ;)
Great explanation! Very clear and thorough.
You need to swap it to SGD based on where the swap curves are at. Then u will see why it’s 5.5% USD
Hi Kevin! Just a quick question 😃 for example is the 6 month treasury bill automatically expire after 6 months or do you have to sell it manually?🤔
How to do so for TD Ameritrade? Can't seems to find any bond section
Hi, nice video. can I buy bonds with margin account in I.B.? or the leverage interest costs eats the bond's profit?
Kelvin Thank you for the video; it was beneficial. Since I reside in the eurozone, I would like to purchase T-bills and insure against foreign exchange risk. What would be the most effective way to accomplish this? Could it be done through Interactive Brokers.😀
Hi Kelvin,
Are we able to use other brokers (eg SCB) to buy US Tbills?
Hi Kelvin, I follow your search and I noticed at the very top of the search there's a T-bill with STRIPS. What is the difference between STRIPS and the normal T-bill? Which one do you recommend picking? Thanks
Hi Kelvin, how about poems and scb trading account? Can they be used to buy US Tbill?
Hi Kelvin, I saw the US t bill price X $15000 on the platform, does it mean the minimum investment must be $15000?
Great video. Are there any ways to buy us t bills directly from auction? Instead of secondary mkt?
No, Interactive Brokers doesn't support at auction US Treasury purchases. They only support secondary market purchases.
After currency conversion is it normal to not be able to buy T--bills? Is the cash not settled until some time passes?
Is there a commission when the bond matures?
Thanks for informative video Kelvin. Is it possible to buy auction t-bills and notes in Singapore using IBKR or only secondary market trades are supported?
Interactive Brokers does not support buying US Treasuries at auction. Charles Schwab do support buying them at auction. Or better still use Treasury Direct.
Hi Kelvin may i know can i buy US T Bill through moomoo platform? Tks
Hi now is great time to invest TBills ?
why its asking for SGD balance to buy? I thought it should be USD?
Very interesting and entertaining video. So the bill you bought will mature at Dec.21 2023 for $1000?
Yup
Hi, is this interest from US Treasury Bill taxable in Malaysia?
@Kelvin, after maturity, money get deposited to IBKR account or we need to sell the T-bills on the market?
Automaticaly get deposited
would you consider doing cspx vs spy+covered call video?
I believe cspx can’t do covered call. Just use spy for this
How about FD in USD currency
Very much appreciate the information 👍
Great
Hi Kelvin, thanks for the insight video of T-Bills. Can I check will the T-Bill auto sell upon 6months? (or whatever the maturity time frame you set) or do you need to manually sell it?
Will get back the money automatically
In your example at 6:52, the yield is 2.46% - so how do you get the full 5%? There are none priced for a 5% return
It's 2.46% for a 6 month term. The yield is quoted as 1 yr term so you need to double it.
the only valid question has no answer?
annual vs. semiannual return
Hi Kelvin, so would you suggest hedging the currency risk or not? Whats your opinion there?
That's up to you
Man, that was easy. I couldn't figure it out at all when I visited their website!!! What a mess!
wow, that $5 commission really cuts into the return. Unless, I guess, you buy really long maturities. Or, am i missing something?
Hi Kelvin, may I know if you are speaking at investfair on 12 Aug?
My slot is 13 aug 4-430pm
Can you do a new video on which platform is easiest to use to buy crypto? Having trouble finding an exchange that is easy to deposit in cash and transfer out BTC after all the nonsense with FTX and swiftbank.
Here u go th-cam.com/video/pBtBBFMU8PM/w-d-xo.html
Hi Kelvin need your help please im trying to fund my account but getting this message you are not eligible to do the transaction
For this, you can try contacting the support to see what's the issue
Hey Kelvin, does this mean that as a Singaporean, you wouldnt invest in Notes/ Bonds? Because of the dividend withholding tax?
Yup! Doesnt make sense to get taxed 30% tax when i can invest in sg bonds and not get taxed
@@KelvinLearnsInvesting totally makes sense. I was struggling to choose which maturity of US notes/bonds/bills but as a Singaporean, its really quite brainless if theres a 30% tax - will just buy bills hahaha
Might as well buy US$ Fd via spore banks. Can get 5.x % too
Can you explain?
@@spectacularangular637You can place a USD fixed deposit at a local bank.
(31 July) Rates for $10k for 6 months:
DBS 4.74
UOB 5.11
Actually if that option is available, why do people buy SG T-bills at all? Sorry, a bit of a noob.
@@theteacher010you’re exposed to USD-SGD exchange rate
@@theteacher010 currency ex risk
Hi Kelvin, I did everything from your video, but I don't see 10y Tbills. Can you help? I'm with IBKR.
TBills only have maturities up to 52 weeks. For 10 year, you'll need Treasury Notes. At the bond scanner, go to US Treasuries, at bottom, change Treasury Type to "Note"
@@KelvinLearnsInvesting Thank you very much Sir!!!
I tried few times doing the exact same steps in this video, but the order didn't go through, my portfolio doesn't show any bonds, only cash. Do you know what the reasons are for the order not being fulfilled? Thank you.
For the order type, can try choosing market order. If use limit order, and the price is too low, it'll not get filled
@@KelvinLearnsInvesting thanks so much for your reply, I'll try again. Is there a minimum and maximum limit to the quantity purchased?
Can do a FX Swap through IBKR?
U mean convert currency? Yes
@@KelvinLearnsInvesting I mean forward currency contract so as to reduce the exposure from FX upon maturity.
sounds good.. how to do this swap?
What? Greatest country in the world?
So it’s 2.45% effective rate
5.4% p.a. Because now to Dec 23 only left 6 mth so it is half
hello kelvin can check with you what happens when the US t-bill matured? The money is retuned to my bank account automatically like sg t bill?
Yes
5% return on 9500 is 9975 not 10,000!
Usd is a depreciating currency to Singapore dollar. US debt ceiling up and up and up....have no intention to pay.
i already loss a few hundred due to curry exchange rates fluctuation and that's for borrowing them for 2 months only ...
but nice sharing anyways
Investment is the key, If you don't find a way to multiply your money, one day you'll wake up and realize that the money you had is gone.
Fact check; us gov wants ur money but they dont want u to become rich, they limit u to a very small dollar amount to purchase. Otherwise why cant we put $1,000,000 in t bonds w a guaranteed return? Stay away from this crappy minuscule investment. Think much much bigger
Do you know how to buy the treasury bill from TD Ameritrade? @KelvinLearnsInvesting
Charles Schwab acquired TD Ameritrade. You can buy US treasuries in either the secondary market or at auction using Charles Schwab.
