QUOTE(cx2531 @ Jul 28 2014, 01:57 AM) but when u visit ASNB ebanking. Got note saying AS1M (Non Bumi Allocation), ASW2020, ASM & ASD are fully subscribed. regarding this, i knew it is fully subscribed, but how about when someone sold their unit? just like bank / pos office if someone didn't sell off, we unable to buy = fully subscribed, if someone sold, we can purchase the unit. so the terms fully subscribed just to mention is no more stock available but doesn't mean we cant purchase it if somebody sold their unit off. correct me if im wrong. In the website Got small note saying "At the moment, this service (m2u) is offered for ASB additional investment only. Other additional ASNB investments are currently not available online." and yes, without opening an account, u cant purchase, so additional add on only available because we do required key in our member id before we make additional purchasing. When u do the transaction in banks or ASNB branch, the transaction is done "real-time" unlike online where the ASNB HQ need to "process" your transaction which is time consuming. That's why when u try luck at banks, u know on the spot if there's any available units (someone sold their units). Remember even u do online, u need to update your passbook at the banks or ASNB branch. In the end, u still need to go personally to the branch. There's no short-cut for it don't ask me why we can try luck at branch but not online (non-bumi). That question can only be answered by ASNB officers

QUOTE(cybermaster98 @ Jul 28 2014, 12:57 AM) I made a withdrawal from ASB last week and moved funds into 2 variable UT funds. Kenanga Growth Fund (KGF) and Eastsprings Small Cap fund. I think taking on some risk is alright as long as ure planning for long term holdings. Besides security and lower risk, why do people still invest in fixed priced UT funds?

I think taking on some risk is alright as long as ure planning for long term holdings. I may be 100% wrong with my line of reasoning here. With the global share markets making all time high in many places, the volatility and uneasy feeling in the markets (China, Germany slowing down, property "bubble", emerging market problems, etc), it may be time for another major correction. Unless the UT can deliver twice the ASNB rate, I prefer to keep my money in more secured places like FD and ASNB (though a global crash will also affect these). The smart ones can make money in good as well as bad time. But I am not one of them. Thus prefer ASNB for the time being. My 2 cents. Cheerio.

My 2 cents. Cheerio. I too was only focusing on ASNB until i was recently informed about variable unit trusts. Did alot of research past 1 month before i moved about 17% of my funds from ASB. You should check the returns of funds like Kenanga Growth Fund. Annualised returns for the past 10 years was 17.2%pa. Cumulative returns for the past 10 years was 387%. http://www.fundsupermart.com.my/main/fundi...lnumber=MYKNGGFThis post has been edited by cybermaster98: Jul 30 2014, 05:23 PM

I will be asking myself: * can the UT take a big beating if there is a crash? How did it perform in the last crash? * can it continue with the good returns? Any change in the management, UT objective, etc? * etc All the best with your investment journey!

Easy to read and with many interesting stories. Can relate to some of them. Know why some people have good luck in winning competitions? You will be surprised at the answer. And you can also apply their technique! Cheerio.
