Back to the shopping list, I think I just add AmAsia Pacific REIT to my portfolio.

The rest can wait.

As usual...

So many REIT/Property funds out there, why this one? Please explain

Well, there're only two choices in FSM.

The other one from OSK-UOB invests heavily in HK which I try to avoid.

So far hk property prices keep going up even during the 2008 downturn.. Think cause of the mainland ppl come to hk buy..

Well, there're only two choices in FSM.

The other one from OSK-UOB invests heavily in HK which I try to avoid.

How about the one from Alliance? That one invests also in US, Europe and Australia

Why only 3 of us "chatting" here tonight? Haha..

That one has a global exposure.

Risker I personally think as it touches US and Europe.

bro, 3 is already an achievement

Heard on BFM 89.9 recently...

Asian sovereign funds and pension funds (yes, ours included) are building up presence in UK properties

Why they don't invest in Asian properties? I believe they see value which we don't

How you know? What is the today NAV?

price today is 0.6323.

Then, u r wrong....

price today is 0.6323.

Then, u r wrong....

Today NAV is just updated after 8pm (GMT+8) and FSM website is not updated yet!

Kaka23 got today NAV from Bloomberg and not from FSM or AMBG.

That's quite the advertised NAV came with date to reflect that compliance.

Any thoughts on amdynamic sukuk?

global bond..well it's riskier than amdynamic bond(closed)

On the performance of the company's Asia Pacific REITs, its chief investment officer, equity, asset allocation, funds management Andrew Wong said it had been quite good with the fund appreciating 20.8% in terms of returns.

But AmDynamic Sukuk is available at FSM website:

Still cannot buy yet?

WEEKLY REVIEW: SUPER MARIO TO THE FORE!
Over the week ended 26 July 2012, most segments of the bond market saw yields rise slightly, reversing the trend from the past 2 weeks. The largest yield rises were observed in the riskier segments of the fixed income market which have performed handsomely. Emerging Market bonds (Hard Currency) saw yields rise by 11.81bps to reach 4.551%, while the Asian high yield segment saw yields rise by 10bps to reach 7.817% to end the week as the worst performers for the week. Other notable rises in yields came from the US high yield segment where yields rose 7bps to yield 7.20% and the G7 bonds segment where yields rose 4.24bps to reach 0.864%, likely due to the rise in the yields of Italian sovereign debt. The only bond segment which saw yields fall was the MY Gov bonds segment, where yields fell by -1.5bps to give investors a yield of 3.163%.

Fixed income markets were particularly volatile this week, with yields rising across the riskier segments of fixed income and the troubled debt of peripheral Europe prior to the market-moving statements of European Central Bank President Mario Draghi (covered below in our Bond Market Outlook).

As such, riskier bond funds such as OSK-UOB Emerging Markets Bond Fund and RHB Asian Total Return Fund fell -0.7% and -0.4% respectively over the week. Within Malaysia, Hwang AIIMAN Income Plus rose most among its peers, reported 0.23% while AmBond returned 0.1%. It is worth to note that Hwang AUD Income (MYR), an Australia-focused fixed income fund was
the best performer, rose 0.4% in a week.
