because i want to combine with my fiancee ASB

no risks. returns like ~8% for dividend.

i think that is VERY GOOD..at 8%pa without risk.....
EQ can give you more BUT the Risk is higher...even thru diversification in a portfolio of funds the return is about 8~10% and that comes with RISK...

Hello sifus,

I have a question to ask. I just found out that my grandparents bought some funds from CIMB. Now it's already 8 years, lol...overall, it's making money (inflation not counted) cuz I see the ROI stated is more than 50% for each of them.
Do you think I should ask them to continue to hold or should sell already? These two funds are CIMB Principal Equity Income Fund and TA Income Fund.

I asked the RM and she said for the latter, she's seeing a slow down. And the first one is risky type. Her advise is to sell, or rather, okay to sell if we want.
I'm not familiar at all, so any feedbacks are appreciated.

Thanks!

CIMB Principal Equity Income Fund is a high risk fund as it has a mandate to invest 50% locally and 50% in Asia ex Japan.

Details: http://www.cimb-principal.com.my/fund_pdf/...und_MYR_FFS.pdf

Average annualized return from your simple ROI could be in the range of 6 to 7%.

The fund is doing pretty well except in 2011.

The 2nd fund is kind of mixed. Up to today, it hasn't reach its IPO NAV which I believe to be 0.5000

The fund is invested 50% in local equity and 50% in local fixed income instruments. It's a balanced fund.

If I were you, I rather sell the TA fund.

David83, thanks a lot for your reply!

Anyone out there had invested in OSK-UOB Capital Protected One Advantage Fund which had just matured on 7/6/13 after 4 years.

On the final week of 7/6/2013, the price drop from 1.1082 to 1.0270. This is the biggest weekly price drop.

I am very suspicious that the price might have been manipulated, causing losses to the investors who had bought the fund at 1.05 inclusive of service tax.

Do I have a case to complain to the relevant authority ? And hope to get them to investigate the matter with the bank ?

Please advise, anyone ???

You can file a complain to Securities Commission (SC).

Hi everyone,

Can I ask a quick question about this AmCommodities Equity fund?
I'm looking at this link: http://www.fundsupermart.com.my/main/fundi...number=MYAMCEQT and if I want to see the most recent performance, I'll need to look at the 1 week % column, is that correct? In this case, is it -5.2%?

Thanks ahead.

Correct.

Thank you! Seems like 1 week performance is really bad =( Is it considered normal to drop so much, or should I not be bothered too much with a 1-week difference and instead wait till it gets to 1-month and beyond? Sorry for the newbie questions.

Investing in AmCommodities is not like buying commodities.

It is investing in companies involved in the commodities industries.

Just as, gold price go up does not necessarily mean that gold companies' valuation will go up and/or they will be more profitable. This happened in the past few years, cos price of production of gold go up also. Gold companies' profit margins got under pressure.

Hope that this more or less enlightened u

Thanks, Pink Spider. It helps to understand this.

Hi Hafiez,
