try FSM S'pore....it has I think 4 funds

what you guys think of Philip Master Equity growth fund under e-UT?

This fund only recently showed great return... it was a so-so fund previously. The fund manager managed to spot some great buy prior to the local stock-market rally. Hence you see their tremendous upsurge recently.

Personally I would not buy this fund yet, if they showed consistent result for a couple more years, then I'll go in. In the mean time, for local fund, stay with Lee Sook Yee fund or Chen Fan Fai's fund.

just my thought......Buy in consideration yr portfolio diversification and % allocation requirement that are in line with your risk profile.

FSM keeps recommending Russia. This seems insane to me, given the risk of more Putin adventurism and increased sanctions from the rest of the world. Not to mention the moral issues involved.

May be insane to U but for those contrarians that "buys fear, sells greed", makes sense.

Case in point - Indonesia & India about 6 mths+/- back when Indonesia crashed >20+%
and India too with capital controls imposed to control capital flight.
Now look at them IF one bought in AFTER the crash with fear lingering around (smell of dead bodies & blood spilled) and lots of "experts" saying their GDP vs debt can't hold will kaboom, etc. etc.

Note - "experts" predict only not actual fact. Actual fact known at that time = crashed a heckuva lot.

Just a thought.

Thanks 4 the advise... sorry noob Q... who is and what are Lee Sook Yee n Chen Fan Fai funds.... hiw do I find them?

moral issues? what moral issues...don't listen too much to CNN and BBC...when it comes to US/West vs Rest of World, they're like Utusan Melayu in Malaysia...lopsided reporting

Thread derail so I don't want to go into this too much. But I very much believe that Putin is evil and poses an existential threat to the world. Certainly the people of Poland and the Baltic countries (among others) are behaving as if the danger is very real.

too late now....ha-ha

moral issues aside...don't mix moral and $$$.

If there is money to be made...go get it. If u don't get it, others will.

If I were to boycott all GLC and BN-linked counters, I got no stocks to buy already, except perhaps Supermax Corp

What happened? My off-shore global fund dropped banyak wor....

Lee Sook Yee is the fund manager of Kenanga Growth Fund whereas Chen Fan Fai is the Chief Investment Officer for Eastspring Investment Berhad (the investment arm of Prudential Insurance).

Mr Chen was from Kenanga i.e., Ms Lee's ex-boss.

Lee & Chen are like the Warren Buffet of M'sian equities.

I agree with you..

Hello, Ms Lee came on board AFTER Mr Chen left

Ok so a couple of questions. ..
Within kenanga and eastsprings,what are the better funds to invest in?
How long have they been with eastsprings n kenanga? Cos if they leave then the fund price will get pressured heavily?

I'm a contrarian but don't think I fancy Putin. Or his homeland market.... Certainly a dangerous character capable to stroke a world war 3 potential catalyst...

Agree in a sense.

Russian equities have been trading at a HUGE discount for a long time already. Means, investing community ain't buying.

Thanks.... within eastspring itself what are the good funds to buy in?
