don't fret too much

as I've said, weak Ringgit will minimise your impact

The equity portion of my portfolio dropped 4.5% in total... mainly from China exposure.

At this moment is 60% China; 40% Tech Sector.

oi! show us your balls!

Reducing risk by moving funds from MYR to INR?

On a round trip you'll be losing out 5-6% on converting currency alone, is converting to INR really mitigating any risk?

If you have 200K+ open HSBC Premier account and ask them to assist opening an Indian account for you (may be possible without an address, haven't tried)

There's US listed products (ETN such as SPCBINR) which would give you INR exposure

I hardly see this as reducing risk, USD possibly ... not INR .. FIY, IDR has similar FD rates

HSI down 7.7% as of now.

Holy the freggin moly

Meltdown In China-Town?
Chinese H Shares Remain A Buy!

While sentiment has changed (from optimism to panic), fundamentals have not swung and changed as much. We advise investors not to read too heavily into the headlines, and to take a step back and look at the market from a wider perspective and with the long-term investment horizon in mind. The -20% correction has only made the offshore Chinese equity market cheaper by sporting more attractive valuations than before.

In the near term, and certainly over the next few days or weeks, volatility is still expected to remain high. However, history has taught us that the best time to buy is when fear and panic grips markets while fundamentals remain stable – with panic and fear clearly evident and in abundant supply right now coupled with the investment thesis for Chinese equities remaining unchanged, the current correction in Chinese equities could prove to be an opportunity for those who dare!

My Manulife China is now down -10.41%. My other China linked funds are down an average -7.77% to -3.5%.

It is not inconceivable that my funds could go down to -20% or more. I am planning to buy more during this market correction. Mega sales have started.

As Peter Lynch said,

“Now no one seems to know when they are gonna happen. At least if they know about ‘em, they’re not telling anybody about ‘em. I don’t remember anybody predicting the market right more than once, and they predict a lot. So they’re gonna happen. If you’re in the market, you have to know there’s going to be declines. And they’re going to happen every couple of years you’re going to get a 10 percent correction. That’s a euphemism for losing a lot of money rapidly. That’s what a “correction” is called. And a bear market is 20-25-30 percent decline.

They’re gonna happen. When they’re gonna start, no one knows. If you’re not ready for that, you shouldn’t be in the stock market. I mean the stomach is the key organ here. It’s not the brain. Do you have the stomach for these kinds of declines? And what’s your timing like? Is your horizon one year? Is your horizon ten years or 20 years?

What the market’s going to do in one or two years, you don’t know. Time is on your side in the stock market.”

My portfolio IRR drops below 3%

yours are more stable...yours dropped just 0.5% since 30/6?
my Xirr dropped 0.85 since 30/6...now is just 3.76%
tomorrow

3.5% on June 30th slumps to 2.7% as of yesterday valuation (July 7th).

Mine... i topped up a week before this falling drama incidence...
