Where Would You Put Your Money From April 2026?
🥇 Gold
BULL
$5,800/oz
BEAR
$3,200/oz
Conviction88/100
Central bank buying, de-dollarisation and geopolitical premium. JP Morgan targets $5,000/oz by Q4 2026. Gold rose 43% in the past 12 months. Structural sovereign demand from China, India, Poland and Turkey sets a persistent price floor independent of the USD.
🇺🇸 S&P 500
BULL
7,200
BEAR
4,800
Conviction65/100
Strong earnings but elevated valuations. US–China trade war and Fed policy transition create volatility. Tariff impacts on corporate margins yet to be fully priced in. Still the world's deepest liquid equity market — best for diversified global equity exposure.
🇸🇬 STI (Singapore Stocks)
BULL
5,800
BEAR
4,200
Conviction78/100
STI hit 5,000 for the first time in February 2026. DBS, OCBC and UOB near all-time highs with ~4.5% dividend yield. Singapore's safe-haven status during US–China trade tensions is drawing capital inflows from regional investors. High yield + regional stability = strong conviction.
₿ Bitcoin
BULL
$150,000
BEAR
$42,000
Conviction52/100
Post-halving correction underway from the $126K October 2025 ATH. Currently ~$78K. Increasing correlation with US equities means macro headwinds weigh on BTC too. High potential but requires strong tolerance for 40–60% drawdowns within a cycle.
🏠 SG Property (Leveraged)
BULL
+8% in 2026
BEAR
+1%
Conviction71/100
9 consecutive years of price gains. URA PPI +3.4% in 2025. At 75% LTV, your S$300K controls S$1.2M of asset — capital gain is on the full value, not just your equity. Rental yield 2.8–3.2% adds to total return. ABSD applies for 2nd+ property purchases.
James's Note — The Only Asset You Can Borrow Against at 75%
+ Read more− Collapse

Every other asset on this list must be bought with 100% of your own cash. If you invest S$300K in gold, you own S$300K of gold. If you invest S$300K in a Singapore condo at 75% LTV, you own S$1.2M of real estate. The 4× leverage multiplier is the entire reason Singapore property has been the primary wealth-building vehicle for Singapore households for 25 years. On a pure capital return %, property rarely wins. On a return-on-equity basis with rental income included, it frequently does — especially if you enter in the right year. Use the Historical Returns tab, toggle on leverage, and change the entry year to see exactly when property beats everything else.

The Diversification Lesson
Bitcoin from 2013 beat everything — in theory. In practice, a 77% drawdown in 2022 caused most retail investors to panic-sell at the bottom. Diversification does not maximise return. It maximises the probability of staying invested when markets are at their worst. And staying invested is the only thing that matters for long-term wealth building.
