anyone invest in public sukuk fund? looks like PM bond funds are getting better even for new one. Quite easily 6-8% p.a.

yeap i invested some in PSKF..juz for fun..lol..but okla..usually bonds don perform the 1st yr

EPF approval may take 3 days, but the unit price is purshcase on the submission date or the next day.

surprisingly Public Strategic Bond and Public Islamic Strategic Bond funds already "performing" on their 1st year.....

wongmunkeong/kparam77/David83/cheahcw2003... thanks for clarifying the UT dividends. I wish PM do not declare dividends and lets NAV value keep on increasing

A knowledgeable UT investors do not want distribution to be declared.

as the current investor account ... does not include the profit of your investment ... it only state your current NAV ...

How to calculated your net profit ? ...
Any special software ...
Need to find out --- whether your investment making any profit or not ?

Net Profits /Loss = Current Total Value (NAV * units U are holding) LESS Total cost (ie. $ U paid)

Special software = Calculator and a bit of brain power

latest stamtnt amount (balanced NAV amount) - the amount u paid = profit/lost.
u need to write it down ur paid amount for calculation.

tht y i buy kenanga growth fund

+1 , n low service charge..2% n sometimes even 1%.

DDI 1%

How do you guys track your returns of all the trusts that you bought? Well.. it will be straight forward in excel file when you only buy then sell off all..

But how to track when you buy, but sell of partially or switch to other funds?

er.. also simple mar switching

STEP 1 - The SWITCH out of fund A
(units out * NAV switched = Sales) LESS (units out * average cost per unit)
Thus U know the net profits of "SELLING" off of Fund A's units

STEP 2 - The SWITCH into Fund B
Your cost would be the Sales above. Take this and divide by your units received and you'll have the average cost per unit

NOTE: I'm assuming U know how to use Excel + U do track you re-invested units growth

PS: Added this for your easy visualization

This round I choose neither one of them. I ended up invested in PIF and PIX.

Maybe next round I will re-consider, or re-invest back the same fund.

Ahhh... thanks for enlightening me!! Seems complicated to create an excelfile to track when doing switching.. haha

Sifus,

What is the basis of calculation of a fund's performance in the report?
http://www.publicmutual.com.my/application...formancenw.aspx
For example,
PUBLIC AGGRESSIVE GROWTH FUND : Total Returns from 09-Sep-08 To 08-Sep-11=36.92%
So the return of 36.92% is based on the NAV differences on 9/9/08 till 08/09/11? Excluding dividend?

Not sifu here bro but it is clear on the link U presented itself - "TOTAL RETURNS"

Total Returns = pau kah liao, as in NAV + reinvested dividends and "whatever else" (which i've no idea heheh)
Mind U, i dont think your particular transaction's service charges' are costed into the "start" of the NAV (pls correct me if i'm in lalaland on this).

Anybody got news when PSMALLCAP will close?

Wong Sifu, don't be so humble lar.
At least u still know how to execute "Fat Shan Mou Ying Kiok" and "Fat Shan Mou Ying Quen" in the market..

New generation Wong Fei Hong..
