Let's "day dream" that the dividend declared will be at least on par with ASB or even better!!!!!

Come on.. We must have positive thinking! Hahaha

how the sales gonna pick up since the chinese quota has finished and bumi has better return from ASB, unless the dividend is higher than ASB.

I'll just stick my head in the sand and wait for the announcement.......

well said, those who have invested in As1m just want the miracle to happen and they day dream the return to be as good as Asb

Just heard from radio. 6.38% can anyone verify this?

Yes it is announced on TV3 just now. Only 6.38%.

this one is much better

what nonsense.

990 days = 2.7 years

If you got a 6.38% compounded for 2 years (730 days) you get 13.16% return.

AS1m pawns your plan 1000000%

Yes.. 6.38%, hm.. i think most probably low payout due to retained earnings..

Theoretically, PNB will allocate a certain portion of undeclared dividends (retained earnings) all their time.. Its their policy.. But i still hope for better results next financial period declaration..

Hi cookie-monster,

Can you elaborate more??

If you got a 6.38% compounded for 2 years (730 days) you get 13.16% return.

It's still a good and safe plan for those with low risk aversion.

Much better than FD, and all the cut-throat unit trust funds out there.

Yape, i agree.. Its an equity fund with no upfront charge, so.. still consider quite good..

Mr Amaltea's product is 7.5% for 990 days. Which means if you deposit RM1000 , you will get RM1075 after 990 days. That's 2 years 9 months.

AS1M, assuming you can get 6.38% this year, and the next year (2 years of 6.38%) , your return of RM1000 will become RM1063.8 for first year, and RM1063.80 x 6.38% for the second year = RM 1131.6. It's compounded interest of 13 % in 2 years instead of his product only 7.5 %.

Don't get cheated by those numbers.

Unit trust companies like to play with 3 years (*) average return of 15%, 20% etc, but if you take into account their annual service fee, their trading fee... it's much lesser than that.

Take ASW2020 for example, their return has been consistently above 6%. Take 6% and compound it for 3 years, you get 19% return with NO annual service fee, no selling fee whatsoever. Any unit trust fund can beat it? hardly

Dividen sulung AS1M 6.38 sen seunit

2010/09/23

KUALA LUMPUR: Amanah Saham Nasional Bhd, anak syarikat Permodalan Nasional Bhd (PNB), mengumumkan agihan pendapatan sulung bagi Amanah Saham 1Malaysia (AS1M) sebanyak 6.38 sen seunit bagi tahun kewangan berakhir 30 September 2010.

http://www.bharian.com.my/articles/Dividen...seunit/Article/

ASM 31.3.2010 ---->6.30%
ASW 31.8.2010----->6.35%
AS1M 30.9.2010---->6.38%

I thought of some correlation between them and thus now the ranking is :-

The best AS1M
Second ASW
Third ASM

cookie monster, i do not mean to be rude but your blutant comments and over confidence without checking properly only show stupidity
http://www.icicibank.com/interest-rates.html
check this it is 7.5% p.a for 990 days
just like the local bank FDs they have different rate based on how long you wanna keep them but all interests are p.a.

Added on September 23, 2010, 2:33 pmI see it's a 7.5% per annum. Sorry my bad for not opening the link (too many ponzi schemes nowadays that I don't bother to open it anymore).

Have you considered the forex risk risk involved in your investment? RUPEE?

Will rupee go up or down 2 years from now?

If Najib transformation program successful, ringgit shoots up to RM2.50 to US dollar? habis lo.

If got another terrorist attack in India by pakistan, then rupee plunges again..


Not for me, TQ anyway.
