Hi there to all experienced investors in this thread. Would appreciate if you can share your views on the following funds as recommended by the FSM Client Investment Specialist:-
Asia Ex-Japan Equity – AmAsia Pacific Equity Income. Global – Aberdeen Islamic world equity fund. Malaysia – Kenanga Growth Fund (which I am very interested in) AmBond AmDynamic Bond I am a very noob investor with a relatively aggressive risk profile but would like to start with 1 or 2 funds just to gain experience first. Thanks in advance!  |

QUOTE(yklooi @ Jan 8 2014, 10:29 PM) check the individual fund fact sheets for more details Hi Mr Looi,if you believes in FSM research...see their rating for the regions/countries.... https://secure.fundsupermart.com/main/artic...pdf_Summary.pdf (just a note....what is the term of investing (how long?) for your mentioned aggressive risk profile? what is your expected ROI?) http://www.fundsupermart.com.my/main/resea...?articleNo=4217  ending footnote:...As part of our continued efforts to urge local investors to venture overseas, we advise local investors to consider Asia ex-Japan and Emerging Markets regions as they present more attractive investment opportunities than the Malaysia market...  Extrapolating historical performance can sometimes be detrimental to investing; we suggest investors avoid relying too much on their “rear-view mirrors” when they invest ...Author : Fundsupermart https://secure.fundsupermart.com/main/resea...?articleNo=8539 my choice...for 1 or 2 funds of the above....AmAsia Pac & Aberdeen Islamic world....    Thanks for your advice...I am comfortable investing from 3 to 7 years and expected ROI is >20% Before buying anything, I will read the Prospectus and try to understand as much as I can (which really isn't much!)  Will do more research on overseas fund and emerging markets then. BTW, do you mind sharing your portfolio? Do you have any small cap funds? Cheers!  |

Hi again Uncle Looi, LOL, i should have made myself clearer. >20% over 3 to 7 years. Regarding the overseas/emerging funds, may I know how exactly are we to monitor the upswing in this manner? (Besides reading FSM articles every day  ) Apologies for this ignorant-sounding question as I really have no idea how to time my purchases at all.No need to be paiseh about your portfolio, we are all on a learning process together!  For now, as i will only be buying 2 funds at the most am I correct in assuming that not much balancing need to be done? Perhaps later i will move on to small cap like the EI one or balanced funds. Cheers! |
