QUOTE(Pink Spider @ Aug 15 2015, 09:46 PM) Finally got time to update my portfolio It's standing at IRR 8%... not too shabby I supposed for a 2yo portfolio... Mu mum's 3 month old portfolio is taking a hard hit on the asia pac fund and KGF... standing at 3.6%... okla, at least I can tell my mum it's not losing money, still better than her keeping it in Hong Leong msia funds which are all in red now |

QUOTE(Vanguard 2015 @ Aug 17 2015, 05:23 PM) For the long run, I still believe that an asset allocation of 80/20 basis, i.e. 80% equity and 20% bond funds, is ideal for most investors. This is especially so when the markets are volatile. I too think 80/20 is a bit aggressive... My portfolio worked out to be around 60:40The following funds seems to fit nicely into any portfolio of RM100K or less:- (1) Kenanga Growth Fund or Eastspring Small Cap; (2) CIMB Asia Pacific Dynamic; (3) CIMB Global Titans; (4) TA European Equity Fund; and (5) Libra Asnita Bond Fund. Note : I cannot comment much on the current US funds or the Asian small cap funds available in FSM which should also form part of the core portfolio. For a portfolio of RM100K or more, I think investors should diversify some money into specialist funds as part of the supplementary portfolio. Some funds which comes to my mind are:- (1) Affin Japan Growth Fund; (2) CIMB China Fund; (3) TA Global Technology Fund. Note : Unfortunately FSM do not appear to have any global REIT fund. What say you? For bond fund, I also like to split into MYR and non-MYR denominated to cater to times like this |

Too many kepala bangang leher besi ppl supporting it You get more... 10 years annualised KGF return is standing at 16.37% To them... fixed price = no loss Little do they know, fixed price also means profit/loss smoothing U can get same effect if u just buy Kenanga Growth Fund and don't look at the NAV for N no. of years...and choose to sell all the distributions But no amount of persuading would convince ppl like my mum to sell |

QUOTE(adele123 @ Aug 18 2015, 02:55 PM) It’s kinda difficult to change the mindset of some people. Also, humans in general are loss averse. So anything looks like losing money they panic lo. Time value of money and opportunity cost is not something everyone sees. I also panic... but too late to sell now, I guess I just have to have faith that my balanced portfolio wont bring me to HollandFriend of mine is panicking right now, over the recent sell down, selling away Malaysia funds, after few short months of investing. |

QUOTE(Vanguard 2015 @ Aug 19 2015, 04:35 PM) Thank you everyone for your replies. I am still thinking whether it is necessary for us to open another account in FSM SG. And the TT transfer charges together with the unfavorable bank rate you get when you TT. That's assuming you don't have Sing dollars in a singapore bank accountIt seems that they have more funds which are better and the charges are lower. The only disadvantage is the forex exchange since our MY is weak? At some point you also need to have a singapore bank account to bank in the cash distribution (for certain funds) and upon selling of the funds |

QUOTE(Vanguard 2015 @ Aug 19 2015, 04:46 PM) Yup, but very little money....That I just buy some asia pac fund and did not construct a proper portfolio... now bleeding because china crash So if your objective is just to have foreign assets to hedge against RM, I think FSM Malaysia would do the job, but if you think the country will go bankrupt and wants to move money out of the country, then perhaps the hassle is worth your while |

QUOTE(sam@bpp @ Sep 2 2015, 07:21 PM) Have you thought of Foreign Currency-denominated Funds in your portfolio? Especially, there's concern on weakening ringgit. Must it be foreign currency denominated funds? What about funds investing in foreign assets? Even though it's MYR denominated, the value of the assets are in foreign currency translated back to MYR at the closing rate of the dayNot much choices available in FSM except Affin Hwang Select SGD Income Fund. |
