Those holding commodities fund may get impacted since last Friday.

Gold dropped 4% last Friday and about 6% today as of now at European trading board. Silver lost nearly 11% as of now. Crude (Brent) lost nearly 1.7% as of now

AmPrecious Metal and OSK Gold & General Fund may got hit a lot. Do take note.

Commodities Slide

S&P 500 futures fell 0.5 percent. The gauge lost 0.3 percent on April 12 after the U.S. retail sales report and as commodities plunged and a gauge of consumer sentiment slipped.
Raw material producers and energy companies posted the biggest decline among the 10 industries in the MSCI Asia Pacific Index. (MXAP) Copper and crude oil futures retreated amid concern that demand will slide after the unexpected slowdown in China’s GDP growth.

Jiangxi Copper sank 4.9 percent to HK$15.66 in Hong Kong. BHP Billiton Ltd. (BHP), the world’s biggest mining company that gets, dropped 3.1 percent to A$32.31 in Sydney. Cnooc Ltd., China’s largest offshore oil producer, declined 3.1 percent to HK$13.74.

Gold producers tumbled as bullion extended losses after plunging into a bear market last week. Newcrest Mining Ltd., Australia’s largest gold producer, slumped 8.2 percent to A$17.92. Zijin Mining Group Co. sank 7.2 percent to HK$2.33 in Hong Kong

When world market is on chaotic, now could be a pocket of opportunity to top up especially on ASEAN and/or Asia Ex Japan.

I'm still swaying away from China/Greater China/North Asian.

A bit only ma compared to its recent tumble

If u look at its 2-year chart, last week's tumble is totally out-of-trend, like a sudden crash. 22% gone in 6 months.

As we speak, HK/China is climbing back toward black hmm.gif

Gold is officially dipped into bear market. This is confirmed.
