it was attractive in 2011 and 2012, on average the dividend can get 6%+..  now not so attractive already, coz capital appreciation  so those that bought previously will still be happy la (like me)
yup, i got enough of REITS on bursa liao.. my purpose was to diversify into other regions' reits via unit trust instead of buying from their stock exchange market.. its okay, hold dulu la.. UT is long term ma 

aiyo kesian.. ok i takut to top up now the AMasia PR liao. haha..

what price did you bought in?

Some sifu said that, the best time to invest is NOW.

Bcos, u wait for this to happen, that to happen, what if what u been watiing for did not happen at all? Time lost.

EPF cannot sustain KLCI as FF pulls out investment... now Kabooming...

Next will be A to AAA bonds if this continues... if FF pull out even more money.

You can see the MGS yield.. if rising means, money is being pulled out

OPR & BLR is under control of BNM...so no one have any say.

But.. FF/Local Funds can dictate yield curve... if yield keep rising, companies will have more cost/trouble to raise capital

When this happen BNM will be 'pressured' to raise OPR to match but not necessary they will do so.

But you can see the trend if the banks tighten loan conditions & have more 'promotion' for FD, means the real interest rate is rising.

No.. tooth fairy told me...

of course by reading lah... 

Too many to count....

You got ah?

If BNM raise OPR, MY bonds will also koyak no matter A or AAA...

Heart must be steady!

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

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? 

Desperate to keep bond yields low and money in investments, rather than people keep lots of cash.

thanks. Can I have another question on EPF side please.

Say, for the first time I want to withdraw EPF for investment, I fill up everything I need to and everything proceed smoothly.

I can only withdraw once every 3 months from EPF for such investment right?

So 3 months later, must I fill all the forms again? assuming if I'm investing in the same unit trust fund.

Deep red more fun, more shopping.... 

Now I am more or less pause my UT funds. Future addition to funds will be in the form of ETF.
