hi, can anyone guide me to switch to which fund in public mutual during economy down trend? bond/money market? name of fund please.
thanks

fill in the switching form then ok

I think he also wanted to which bond/money market fund is good to switch into.

yup, is pmmf/pimmf okay? bond and money market are roughly the same rite (low risk).

Money market fund has lower risk compared to bond fund.

Its benchmark is 3-month/1-month KLIBOR rate.

Annual return for PMMF as of today is 2.32%

For PIMMF is 2.25% and it is benchmarked against 1-month IMM rate.

Does anybody right now still on equity? not yet lock the profit?

i still on equity

Not worried? what is your plan in the short term?

You're worried about local or offshore market?

but even if we invest directly online without any agent, the fees is still 5.5%
so no different*, we just need to compare the fees with other funds' fee

*the difference is that if we have a good agent, we might need to spend less time to gather info that we need.
