The Kid Senior Member 1,219 posts Joined: Jan 2003 From: Penang	hie guys, i've a question in regard to calculate returns of a fund that I bought..say Fund A. Illustration:- Bought Fund A at RM1.00, 1000units on 5 Oct. Bought Fund A at RM1.10, 500 units on 18 Oct . Now price is RM1.20, I wanna sell 500 units. So I will get 500*1.20 = RM600, but my question is, how do u calculate ur return, whether the 500 units is from RM1.10 bucket or RM1.00 bucket ? And the 1,000 units left, are those RM1.00 bucket or RM1.10's leftovers? THanks.

The Kid Senior Member 1,219 posts Joined: Jan 2003 From: Penang	QUOTE(edifgrto @ Jan 1 2007, 03:03 PM) Trying my best here. When you investing, you buying at their selling price stated to public. When you redeem 500 units of Fund A, you need to use NAV per unit. Which is Net Asset Value(added Repurchase charge where its value just Nil, Zero or 0.00). You current net value of fund is basically solely based on your NAV per unit, nor selling or buying price. Just Fill up your Repurchase Form. And be sure what NAV you having, to know the return. Correct me if I'm wrong. PS: ante5k, what are all those First in first out , or last in first out?! Is that based on certain funds type one?! edited: Your amount invested is RM 1,550 since Oct 2006?! If the year is correct, then perhaps the most you get is only 10.61%(there is one fund having this yield). So, For 500 units, the most you get is RM 82.23. ante5k, I thought that is only applicable to shares? Coz for shares I can see those FIFO,LIFO,etc. options in Smith Barney, but local mutual funds..not sure.. edifgrto, how do u get 10.61% from the scenario above? I mean how do u calculate the 500 units' return is 10.61% ?? please guide plz guide..thankss

The Kid Senior Member 1,219 posts Joined: Jan 2003 From: Penang	QUOTE(ejleemy @ Jul 20 2007, 02:53 PM) Actually many local equity funds made over 50% in the recent 1 year. His one made over 50% in 8 months could be possible, likely to be one of those more aggressive funds. Added on July 20, 2007, 2:55 pmboon, switching doesnt incur any initial service charge. Only rm 25 transaction fee deducted from your NAV for normal members. The fee is waived for Mutual Gold members. A good agent will never advise selling unless the investor plans to withdraw from UT altogether. ejleemy, does that apply to EPF investments too? coz last time I thought switching for EPF investments are free? No longer applicable? Thankss

The Kid Senior Member 1,219 posts Joined: Jan 2003 From: Penang	sorry, not sure where to post this, but since this is a fund corner, i'd just post here, plz help me to remove if not appropriate, thanks. My question is, can we do online additional investments to our funds like we pay bills on the net? I know Public Mutual can, but what about other fund houses like OSK-UOB? or MAAKL Mutual? Thanks~~

The Kid Senior Member 1,219 posts Joined: Jan 2003 From: Penang	QUOTE(cherroy @ Nov 21 2007, 08:38 PM) A lot of other banks are selling their product also, check with respective banks. THanks~! Yep, managed to get the prospectus from its official website as well (AmInvestment). After some searching, managed to find something bout DWS Noor Precious Metal Securities Fund, the fund that AmPrecious Metal feeds into. Taken from dws.com:- It is launched on 14-Feb-07, Past performance(as at 28Sep) 1m - 20.71%, 3m - 11.44%, 6m - 10.94%, Since incept - 10% Fund manager is Greg Foulis Asset as of 28-Sep - 9.56mil USD Breakdown by country (as 28-Sep) - Canada 58.7%, South Africa 15.4%, Australia 9.7%.... Fund Manager's comment - » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « The gold price had a very strong month in September. In response to the sub-prime mortgage problems the Federal Reserve in the US cut interest rates by 50 basis points. This was taken as a refl ationary move and as a result gold price rose to by 10.6% to reach a 27-year high. This gold buying was partly from investors wanting a "safe haven" with the increasing financial risks and also from the continued weakness in the US$. Gold stocks were very strong, on average rising by around twice that of the price of the metal. Further production problems meant concerns on lack of supply pushed the platinum price up by a similar amount as gold. We expect that the risks in the financial markets will give a higher gold price through into the next calendar year.

The Kid Senior Member 1,219 posts Joined: Jan 2003 From: Penang	QUOTE(bafukie @ Dec 7 2007, 01:51 PM) Prob those who are interested should starts to look @ foreign funds. In malaysia 20-30% return pa is consider very good or perhaps one of the best funds already. In US or Hong Kong, good funds that generate 20-30% return is consider sap sap sui. In US, good funds generate more than 100% p.a and HK, one of the best funds generate over 800% in 5 years. So, widen ur horizon... the grass is REALLY greener on the other side. Cheers . hie, may we know which fund does that? Do u know the fund company? does it have any website? I'm sure many would like to invest too, if the returns are promising Thanks
