my FSM portfolio did not have these 3 countries...also kena -2% (same as DJ)...AGE & Global Titans about -2%....what is surprising my Kidsave kena -1.8%,

today FSM work half day

Dow and S&P 500 so red last night...I overslept just woke up missed cut-off

Lets see how will Dow and S&P do tonight!!!  Go down lagi, can top up after CNY!

Monday is Fed Territory Day replacement holiday

Most of the unit trusts in Malaysia are priced based on "forward pricing". This means that if you transact today, you will get the fund’s value as of the closing price of the market today. However, you will know the price in two working days
The price that you could see in the website is the so-called 'indicative price'. This is usually the price of the fund two working days ago. This indicative price is NOT the actual transaction price of the fund that you are buying or selling.

Generally, the fund manager requires approximately two business days to consolidate and derive a unit price for the funds. These prices are further valued independently by the fund's trustees. Therefore, the dealing price will be made known to the public two business days after the transaction date. Once we obtained the price, an email notification will be sent to you.

so, 2 business days after the transaction date then only one can know the price you will get

if it is a global funds, even Asean countries are off for the CNY, the other holdings in the funds are also affected by the working days of the other stocks in the listed countries....

Today topped up on ABERDEEN ISLAMIC WORLD EQUITY FUND - CLASS A!

Indonesia n Thai Sudan tumble....now its Singapore pulak ....their housing bubble have burst...

After RHB took over, it's slower to get NAV prices. Back then we will get today NAV price for CMF and other Malaysian funds after working hours, but now...

Wrong choice of benchmark?

Put it on chart centre with RHB-OSK GEYF, CIMB-Principal Global Titans and compare?

Infact all the local unit trust operator are jaguh kampung mainly. Look at their foreign funds... semua koyak wan.

Wait lar... nanti when the SG funds come into Bolehland (I expect by 2H-2014) due to the free trade agreement, you see how our local jaguh kampung suffers.

Soon, Pink soon, when FSM MY can sell Templeton, Blackrock, JP Morgon, Fullerton, Russell, Schroder... no need feeder fund liao...woo hoo!

  just get prepared....when was the last time got abt 10% dropped? (Jan 2014 was much less than that, I think)

Morgan Housel .... "Over the past 85 years in the USA, its stock market has fallen by 10% from a recent high every 11 months – that’s more than once a year. When looked at through the lens of history, a market correction suddenly seems mundane and boring."
“One of the most common questions financial TV hosts ask their guests is whether they expect a pullback or a crash to hit the market. It’s an odd question, akin to asking whether they expect summer to occur. Of course summer will occur, and of course stocks will pull back.”

That’s snarky. But it’s true. And here’s the kicker: Despite the S&P 500 displaying ostensibly large amounts of volatility in the past 85 years, it has climbed by 10,000% to where it is today since the start of 1928.

Bottom line.....
So, looking at what history has taught us, the next time you see the markets experience a pullback, or correction, or crash… don’t panic. It’s normal, and part and parcel of what investing is all about.

If anything, when markets start to fall, start coming up with your own wish list of shares you’ll like to invest in at lower prices. And just to bring home the point, when markets fall hard, what we should be doing is to invest.

you're learning the same way i did - palm to head methodology

drops:
remember.. 10%+/- is around once a year
20%+/- is like a correction, once in a few years
>=30% is like holy heck, once in a blue moon
>80% is fun.. if one has enough ammo to sai lang and yet hold 3 to 5 years

Just a thought 

Isn't it kind of risky as it is only specific to Japan?

But I invested in Kenanga Growth Fund so, it can be said the same haha.....

aiya....relatives punya relative ma...coincidence only...now she handles my insurance , my unit trust lo....buffet said diversify...so i diversify lo...let expert handle for me......some i handle myself lo....
