I thought you are a PM agent? Well i think some of us here join UTC merely for a lower service charge as an agent ourselves. I think most of the time they can trick aunty and uncle by using 'PM is the largest UT industry and have won many awards every year'. Then they will show how is the performance of the good funds. Not many aunty and uncle know how to use morning star to compare other funds performance. I think they are targetting older people since they have more money. Young people only can DDI RM100-RM1000 every month. Meanwhile aunty uncle can DDI few thousands.

But we as customer should be smart since we got options. If PM not good, just get out of it. Join Fundsupersmart?

That is FPAdvisor? That was the software i played with few years ago. If not an agent how to get it? Can buy?

Anyone buy china related fund recently? We all know most china funds underperformed for the last 5 years and it makes alot of investor lose money. But remember the phrase one man losses is the another man gains. Those funds are having massive drop from the top ie. 30-45%. I see some opportunity here for china related fund as they are relatively cheap. Our local KLCI is at all high compared to chinese market 3 years low.

When did you bought it? What were your strategy? PCSF NAV currently almost similar to 5 years ago. 3 years bottom. But i believe no matter what strategy used in the past 5 years on this fund wont generate much return. High risk fund though.

Trust me, aunty and uncle trust public bank alot. They have no idea about FSM unlike us the youngsters. Register online for FSM, they will think it is a scam. And fsm is not that popular compared to public mutual. Try ask them about mutual fund, what comes next in their mind is public mutual fund.

But still, FSM is a lot better. They need open more offices and more advertisements. I asked my friend around about FSM, most of them clueless.

Fundsupermart is indeed very attractive due to its cost. But, they seriously need to open more branches in Malaysia. There is no FSM branch in Kuching and make it hard to attract more customers though. That is the reason why public mutual dominate the UT market due to its presence. Although the sales charges is high.

Just look at Public Far-East Property & Resort.

The rally just wont stop. Wonder if it is still the right time to top up? The property sectors are very diversified across the countries.

Xuzen, any inputs regarding to these funds?

Public Far-east Select Fund
Public Far-east property and Resort fund
Public Indonesia Select fund

Public focus select fund
Public regular saving fund

All these funds under one same manager Tan Yan Heong.

Indonesia horse still got stamina? I compare Indonesia with Australia. Fund movement almost the same. But Indonesia is less volatile and higher gain.

Dont forget that australia election will be held on september or november if im not mistaken. So there will be more volatality coming up. Plus the weak economy data.
