wow a lengthy advise...
"no body has any control - not even the FM. It is ridiculous to think the FM has any control over the stock market or has his own crystal ball"......but I think one have decisional control over to buy or not to buy into a preferred fund at that market situation

I would refer that as investment preference and not so much as emotion....
to me (may not be to some), emotional investing is the psychology effect of the situation toward oneself, that may lead an investor to make decision that at normal times would understood to be unwise.....
something like this short article..
"It is not only important to understand the risks of the investments you are looking at, but also to understand your personal risk appetite. Sometimes, it is not a matter of what kind of risks you want to take, but a matter of what kind of risks you can take given the circumstances that you are currently in. And the best way to do it is to assess your actual experience in investing.

For instance, you might have thought that you are an aggressive investor who can cope with a high level of risk based on the results of the risk profiling test. However, in practice, if you find that you always panic too soon every time the market dips, and get overly euphoric and pump in more money whenever markets are on a roll, then high-risk investments are not so suitable for you because they are likely to cause you to lose money.

actually the terms is Distribution....
pls read post #1...
there is the explanations of why....distribution is "left pocket money goes into right pocket" to a fund.

I am just a lowly messenger, ...
the REAL Sifus is still not back yet from this Labour Day Holiday.

Vicious selloff in sovereign bonds spooks Asia stock markets, commodities surge
PUBLISHED ON MAY 6, 2015 9:23 AM
SYDNEY (Reuters) - Asian stocks stumbled on Wednesday in sympathy with weak U.S. and European markets as equities investors were spooked by a vicious selloff in sovereign bonds globally.

The sudden spike in bond yields is being mirrored by an equally rapid rally in resources to suggest investors are becoming less concerned about the danger of deflation.

Asian bonds extend global rout as oil climbs
PUBLISHED ON MAY 6, 2015 11:04 AM
WELLINGTON (Bloomberg) - Asian bonds fell, extending a selloff that's erased US$340 billion in value globally, and shares retreated as oil traded above US$60 a barrel.

Yields on 10-year government notes from Australia to Singapore rose at least five basis points by 10:02 a.m. in Hong Kong, after rates on Treasuries increased to an almost two-month high and German bunds slid a seventh day.

in % terms against what is still inside here?

“Having said that, we note that foreign funds have been net buyers for five weeks in a row now,” Zulkifli told The Edge Financial Daily in an email interview in mid-April.

wow

I would not, because it will delay my records keeping.....have to wait a few days longer to get the actual revised NAV and revised quantity....
not sure about others....and you wanna top up? why tomorrow?

This post has been edited by T231H: May 6 2015, 09:39 PM

why not ask your banker, what are the benefits of top up tomorrow (on distribution date)?

was just wondering where did the TAXES fits into this equation...
value of the total assets in the fund should be more BEFORE the taxes given to gomen during distribution....therefore if no distribution no need to pay taxes then more value in asset, right?
now my mind start to get confused.....

good news for INDIA again...
India parliament's lower house passes goods and services tax reform
Published on May 6, 2015
NEW DELHI (REUTERS) - India's lower house of parliament on Wednesday passed a bill that seeks to transform the country into a common market, harmonising state and central levies into a national sales tax which is expected to boost manufacturing.
Jaitley has called the goods and services tax (GST) the biggest reform since independence in 1947 that could add as much as 2 percentage points to the growth of Asia's third-largest economy.
