How do I buy and sell my bonds?

What is the best time to buy and sell bonds? Should I wait and hold onto my bonds until it matures or should I sell it whenever I see fit? Should I treat bonds the way I treat stocks? What should I familiarize myself with when it comes to buying and selling bonds? How does the bond market differ from stock market?

    Bond market is similar to the stock market however the bond market is a larger market. You bdon;t have to hold onto the bond until it matures before selling it. There are a few terms that you should know when buying and selling bonds. You should always be familiar with the market price. You should sell your bonds at a premium to earn from your bonds. There are times when you really have to sell your bond at a discount to avoid further loses however avoid it if it is avoidable.

Earn up to 1% rebate on your purchase

If you target to spend on major event tickets and high price items with the plan to split by instalment then this card is for you. However I notice that if you have an existing OCBC saving account, it makes bill payments much more seamless. And aside from being able to split payment into monthly instalments interest free, you can earn up to 1% rebate on your purchase. Only few cards in the market that allow auto convert spending into interest free instalment and still be entitled to 0.5% or 1% cash rebate.
