Haha.. David, one mega sales just end last week. This week another mega... I am loving it. Thought this time the sales I am not so interested on the funds..

  time to go bargain hunting....
  got any bullets left  to hunt later, if go in for the latest promo at the end of this month?

No, it's not a FSM Recommended Fund.

AGEF. USA 12%, UK 3%, Japan 13%
my thinking is, what is the 13% in terms of the total value in the portfolio.
ex, if invested in AGEF for RM5000...the Jpn exposure is (Rm 5000 x 13%) = RM 650 for this fund.
if the worst were to happens in Jpn and this 13% got wiped out...how much $$ will it be affected in the portfolio....
it is always good to have some in Jpn and US....some of the best and BIG global companies are from there!!

pink's favorite OSK-UOB GEYF @49% US then?

I guess, there will always be "hiccups" in the US and so are the rest of the world......there are monthly economic data coming from US and China and (Europe too) and they are scheduled not far apart....and now the much anticipated "tapering".....then later I guess they will news the amount of taper effect....then later the positive / negative sign of taper off and so on and on......I think they are there to "move" the markets.
so I guess there will NEVER be a "Best" time to enter
just like David83 said yesterday, "monitor for "dip" opportunities". 

my current dilemma is to whether to enter for this 1%sc or wait for after the announcement of start of "tapering".....cos the start is actually good, it is only the possible negative reaction....and this reaction maybe even more than the 1%Sc. but the "hints' of tapering in 22 May may already taken some of that risk away.....what if there is no dip opportunity then....or worst may hv missed the boat too....   may well just hv to toss the coin before the end of this promotion then.

Where?
U mean past time? Puchong & Sunway Mentari plenty - Pink's the expert

ok ok back to the topic, else moderators nuke me
Anyone here ball-sy enough to go gung-ho and buy/sell to hit a planned Asset Allocation just like that <snaps fingers>?
ie.
say from holding 80% of bonds/cash VS 20% equities,
then just buying/spending down bonds/cash
to hit 30% bonds/cash VS 70% equities?

Personally, my nuts aint made of steel, thus i just whittle-down / re-allocate towards my targeted % within 6 months (if my held % is off by 25% of planned)
ie. plan 6 mths to execute extra purchases/SWITCHING on top of my quarterly die-die value averaging + dollar averaging
Then after the 6 mhs, review again and see how much more if it is still off by 25%

Just thinking any better ways yet not balls-to-the-wall gungho oneshot rebalance? 

then lagi pening....  
anyway,...will be studying to reorganizing my portfolio will try to cater US, Europe, Asia ex Jpn, Japan, Emerging Mkt (5 catergories) and will go to Eq 80% (for this 2 years)
I selected this due to the correlation of returns.....any suggestions? anyone?
