i've invested in UT seriously since '07 and have seemed to see some trends:

MY equities - well supported by institutional funds...even if MY equity funds dip, the market will bounce back...so for me, i will either DCA/VCA/what a you call it...to lower the average purchase price.

APxJ/GEM/Global/Alternative Assets - very volatile, depends on how much you can stomach. for me, i will buy on dip and sell all/portion once my targeted profit % has achieved/over a period of under performance/doesnt meet my investment objectives.

Just compare MY funds performance vs those regional/global funds over 5 or 10 years period, and MY funds beats the crap out of those pure play regional/global funds in general

Well I totally agree that etf should be the most optimum way of investing, cost and performance wise. But it's not so accessible to the small ikan bilis out there

I wanted to write a cheong hei article but I just can't seem to get started. Anyway, the numbers just shows that MY-fund aka jaguh kampong fund are performing better wrt their off-shore counterpart.

My not so professional judgement are:

Local stock market is semi-efficient, hence local fund manager can exploit the alpha from the market. "Big fish can east small fish".

When the same jaguh kampong fund manager venture out into the big big ocean, they become the small fish and get swallowed up by bigger fish such as JP Morgan, Credit Suisse etc.

Having said that is super efficient market such as the US, actively managed fund with high annual expenses  will be slaughtered by super low cost index fund or ETF simply there does not exist inefficiencies for the fund manager to exploit the alphas.

anyone invested in property related UT funds? bad time to invest in this asset now? I'm having a look at AmGlobal Properties fund, which unfortunately is not available in FSM.

PS: I'm already invested in REIT stocks.

they have changed fund manager. Kidsave used to be managed by UOB Asset Management CIO but after the switch to RHB, they use RHB's own CIO, who is an expert in fixed income rather than equities.

not sure whether it's just coincidence or under performance, since switching under RHB management, the fund performance is either stagnant or under deliver.
