Interested... You bought in already?

Not yet. Was very busy yesterday. No time to look into any financial news.

Ponzi alert - "if it's too good to be true, it's not true"



Have u bought in? Cos I see its performance chart...look a bit "too fast, too early"...

hehe - are U now convinced that REITs or REITs focused funds deserve a bit of your $ allocation?

Added on August 2, 2012, 8:24 am$ is flowing into properties and dividend stocks - both of which are epitomized by REITs mar.
More demand = higher valuations.
Just make sure the areas that the fund is buying (REITs) into have good enough DY% for your taste.
Just a thought yar - U may have other additional criteria

Sifu...saya tau salah ler

Kena korek korek for DY info

Still, +20% in 1 year (capital + income)...macam sikit overbought

I'm not greedy. If the fund can constantly stream an average annual return of 10% is sufficient. The more it could generate, that would be bonus.

Same here bro.
Not greedy. In fact, if any one of my transactions climbs above 25%pa (CAGR), i'd take some profits heheh (visions of 1997 and 2008 flashes before my eyes when i see such craziness).

In this case, the "bonus" is already paid, u still want to buy?

Ah.. the conundrum of how high is high & how low is low comes into play
Start with a 5 year plan lor - Value Cost Average or Dollar Cost Average or TwinVest it.

Anyone here remembers "people" telling them they are crazy to go into the market at end 2008 / early 2009?
"Market so lousy waffor"

Flash forward 2010
Anyone here remembers "people" telling them they are crazy to go into the market at 2010?
"This recovery's not real"

Flash forward 2011
Anyone here remembers "people" telling them they are crazy to go into the market at 2011?
"Market so high liao crazy ar"

Flash forward 2012
All time high for KLCI and generally REITs for SGX & KLSE (i only track those heheh sorry ar).

FEER and GRID........ Syndrome

Well said

Added on August 2, 2012, 10:05 amI'm also interested...

Planning to structure my equity allocations this way:

25% global leading companies
25% global high dividend yield stocks
25% Emerging Markets
12.5% Asian REITs
12.5% Asia Ex-Japan small-mid caps

Now planning when to buy into the bottom 2 category

Currently
30% global leading companies
30% global high dividend yield stocks
40% Emerging Markets

Tax free too! (we are non-resident mar)

Ok, I'm getting in today

same here

Was waiting for my friend to activate his account so that I can get 1% SC coupon...but he was like taking forever to do it

Nvm lar, I can buy at 1.75% SC, beza cuma RM7.50

Hwang Global Property only returned 8%+ during past 12 months, whereas AmAsia Pacific REIT 20%+

wah.. you make decision so fast!!! haha

Last nite already read the fund prospectus...

...my favourite top performer in my portfolio which sadly is not (yet) on FSM platform, Hwang Select Income Fund, is also quite REIT-heavy, being a yield-focused fund. My FSM purchases has made its % in my portfolio shrunk to a mere 18%.

AmAsia Pacific REITs fits the bill to bring my REIT exposure back up.
