Woahhhh..

All market crashing especially europe and china amd malaysia

You are referring to yesterday or day before right ?

I see today Asia market climb back up again.

My profit eroded about 35% since last week or so.

One of my favourite movies is Braveheart, starring Mel Gibson as William Wallace. He was the Scottish patriot and national hero who fought and died to free Scotland from English rule.

There is a scene in the movie where the heavily armoured English cavalry was charging on horses towards the lightly armed Scottish infantry. Wallace ordered his troops to "HOLD....HOLD.....HOLD....". At the very last minute, the Scottish infantry raised 10 feet long poles which were lying hidden on the ground to pierce and slaughter the English cavalryman. Scotland won a great victory that day.

What does this story has to do with investing in unit trusts in FSM? In times of great uncertainty and adversity, if we have a proper asset allocation, then we should just weather the storm and hold our portfolio. The storm will pass and we will emerge victorious at the end.

China and India may be falling today but we should stay focused. Invest more if we can afford to and just sit tight to weather the storm.

SSE Composite up 2%. HSI up 1%

GTF in red for weeks

That' right, I hope that 1-2% index translate to my 10-20% gain. I have to wait till Monday to see it.

Global bond rout dragged developed and global stocks.

When all you have is just some primitive pointy tip polearm then you can only hold hold hold loh! Imagine if he has with him trebuchet, multiple firing crossbows etc, then he has so much more options.

Similarly in Bolehland, we can only long a fund and nothing else hence we can only wait it out. Now imagine if we can short sell funds or perhaps write and sell our own put or call options. Do much more we can do....rather than wait it out and tok-kok with strangers over the net.

Idea of the Week: the Investment Value of BRIC May 8, 2015

well 6-8 equity funds for diversification is really overdiversification.we cannot 'diversified'away from systematic risk even with 100 equity funds
suffice to say 70% TSM or large caps value+growth,25% small/midcap,15%small value would have been adequate.expense ratio for the latter 2 funds will be fairly substantial as churning or higher turnover rate than large cpas is not unexpected
as for asset allocation- risk tolerance time horizon investment goal etc would determine/decides the portfolio of the investor

looks like "Heavy" stuffs to me....
can you simplified it in laymen terms?.....example a simple portfolio might helps....

Thank you very much.

Need to deposit money first before can buy fund? Can accept Pbebank/Cimbclicks to deposit money?
