      Halo forumers! I had came across this forum by chance and thought there are alot of great investors here. I'm still learning and have a couple of questions.

      From the SGX website:

      a) STI 3100DBePW080801, price 0.49,

      b) STI 3000SGAePW080730, price 0.255.

      I know STI refers to Singapore Straits Times Index. What does DBePW or GAePW means?

      So if I buy say 100 lots of (a) I will invest $25,500. So I must sell within 01 Aug 2008? But at what price? How do I see the profits I make?

      Thanks in advance.

      You look at the price its at when you sell, minus what you purchase at. that's your profit. i think

      ==> Agenda.

      Thanks for your reply. However I do not think it works this way. I think we have to look the whether the STI clears the 3000 or 3100 mark by the expiry date.

      Anyone care to explain on this?

      Thanks. Saw some of the discussion here about investments, unit trusts, stocks, etc both in this forums and in Speakers Corner, etc. That's why thought they are quite proficient.
