KGF & Small Cap down today...but KLCI up 10pts...must be huge profit taking adjustment..

** normally..these funds beat KLCI by huge margin..but today...something fishy..

drop again..   although KLCI is up 6.xx  i fed up aldy...rageeeeeeeeeee

today...UT should go up..

Should I laugh or what? It's nearly flat.

Let's make some senses for KGF based on whole Bursa Malaysia performance:

Benchmark	Delta (%)
FBMKLCI	-0.22
FBMT100	-0.2
FBM70	-0.15
FBMSCAP	0.52
FBMEMAS	-0.14

If KGF has no restriction on large, mid cap or small cap, the nearly flat NAV movement could be justified from it.

Hi gurus,

I am newbie in Unit Trust / Mutual Fund. I have MYR 400k to invest, only 1 time, no plan to add in the near future. Wanting to put them all in UT.
Where best to put?
Put all in EastSpring Investment Small Cap Fund? best performing equity fund..
goal is to gain capital in the next 3-5 years.

Cheaper to buy from FundSuperMart?

Thanks for your advice.

veli good idea

400,000 - 30% = Rm320,000 left, and that as a worst case situation? even 50%, it's still Rm200,000.

What are the chances of a really large drawdown? 2008 financial crisis drawdown was 38%, still 248K left, and that only lasted one year.

Appreciate all the comments, guys....
Anyone kind enough to give propose a portfolio?

Thanks.

for the ROI part, i have no idea yet as i'm still very newbie on this..  Would u mind to share more on this ?

Salam all dai kor here.....

Newbie reporting in. Would like to ask for oppinion that is this the best time to consider investing into trust fund...??

If I know that, I won't be posting here to chit chat with you. I'll be opening a public talk to earn money or best to be Jibby economic adviser.

Investing in UT is not really about market timing. Market timing will give you slightly more advantage. Throughout the holding time, the fund manager may or will rebalance the fund portfolio and its lying assets to suit or ride through the market uncertainty or volatility.

I opt to wait longer but will take this oil rout correction to go in.

Personally, I think SENSEX didn't correct much.

You can't escape from the global rout or correction.

If it is this good and legit. (or legally correct but morally wrong)..why must PM? why not say it out loud? 

i'd like to start investing in funds, how do i start?
i'm a fresh grad,need your advice~

Never thought I will be visiting this thread for a person who completely doesn't believe in unit trust fund and ended up working in one lolz...

From what I heard from a central dealer in a unit trust company, fund managers have been buying high and selling low. Most of the affected funds are Malaysian based with no international exposure. Aside from that the asset allocation has presented fund manager with a major headache, since they are required to observed certain threshold (I.e. 60% equity and 40% fixed income) and maintain a min cash reserve (5%?). To add to the conandrum, external factors are so uncertain with rising interest rates and falling oil prices... I think fund managers are probably pulling out all their hair by now. Hahahaha...

My money isn't in ASEAN (excl Singapore), I believe the future lies with Japan.

I have started to move Malaysian based funds to regional funds until oil prices recover.
