lol.. new sigs heart must be steady haha. i ciken already.. will switch partial of my holdings in japan and thai to others. =P

Any good suggestion, switch to money market ?

Heart must be steady!

withdraw all my investment....settle loan

time to keep the liquid for sapu session after it reach rock bottom ?

how do u know when is the bottom?

Finally bit the bullet and sold off my EI Asia Pacific Shariah fund, took the loss of -6 % . Will rather use the funds to invest in other worthy funds, since it's the best time for topup, all markets tanking worldwide

I already did on Monday

I received explanation from FSM.

The "Cost" column is calculated using Available Quantity multiplied by Weighted Average Cost (WAC).

WAC is calculated using gross investment amount divided by Available Quantity.

Example:
Bought RM1000, received 1754.58 units.
Available Quantity is 1754.58.
The WAC is 1000/1754.58=0.5699369.
Cost is 999.9998. (after rounding up, it's 1000).

Later, sell 500 units at NAV 0.568 (intra fund no SC). Now the number of units is 1254.58.
The WAC remains the same. So cost is now 715.0314.

My calculation:
500 units at NAV 0.568 is worth RM 284. When I deduct this amount from the initial RM1000, the remaining is RM716.

There isn't much difference when the amount is small but can notice the difference when amount gets bigger.

just a note: the Ponzi HSAQ and MOST of the Eq funds which i bought last month at about highest.....till today still at about -4% if taking 2% SC into consideration then the drop is only 2%...."all markets tanking worldwide"..does not affect much till today...need to consider.....
"Heart Must be Steady"...do what Pink did...switch off business news.

That one not steady lar... means cash out...

Waiting your sugestion best to put $$$ before

BOND KABOOM
EQ KABOOM
FD KABOOM

where to put, no choise settle loan

Steady steady...ride it out, top up & balance when you can...

I give you an good analogy...

If you see your favorite snack/drink having 50% sale off in the supermarket, what will you do?

Now...

Imagine...

If you substitute the favorite snack/drink to your favorite equity/bond...

Why should you do any different?

Today 100% of my funds went down RED. Nothing in GREEN!

Time for shopping.

Should I sell off all my holdings, realize profit and go shopping. Or maintain and go shopping. If go shopping, at least I still can realize some gain right?

You can realize some gain and use it to buy to other funds.

I'm aiming for Hwang Asia Quantum and Hwang Select Opportunity.
