Earlier everyone was doom n gloom when MYR keep depreciating, oil price down, Bursa down n so forth
Now everyone keep knocking on the doors of FP when almost everything recovers
Conclusion : Ppl follow herd mentality

Haha I'm still here. Haven't looked at the thread for a while. I've been busy in this very volatile market.Those who invested in variable price when KLCI was 1530 must be happy now that it has reached 1700.

I only put 1k in ASN that time. Should've put more. . Don't know if klci were to reach that level again in the near future.

More good nows is coming in. In October, we'll have budget 2016 coming up. Do expect some mild expansionary measures. Valuecap would begin operation in November.

And I have a feeling the government would announce its GST collection so far, and it has been  far above estimate. More than RM 5 billion a month. So that's another positive news.

And the Fed seems to be more dovish, it probably would delay interest rate hike in 2016. Very positive for emerging markets, therefore Malaysia.

Hahaha.. Been silently reading rather than contributing as nothing much to add on to the discussion here from me. Personally I haven't heard of any new FP funds being launched though, Mr. Gray's insider information must be stronger than mine. I know that ASB2 was a freak-of-nature but with the FP renewal application coming up at the end of the year, I would think PNB is more focused on getting the extension rather than new funds.

On the FP funds for non-bumi front, my colleague's friend indicate that these days, the number of units available fluctuates greatly in hours never mind days. For eg: an hour after branches open there can be millions of units available but by noon everything would be taken up. These fluctuations can happen multiple times in a single day and because these funds may not have individual limits like ASB/ASB2, these vast fluctuations would be almost normal.

I guess that explains why some can get more than 10k units while others hardly can get any in the space of a few hours from each other.

Mind to share what happen to 2009?

I am quite new to this area and would like to know some interesting history too. 

What kind of panic?

AS1M divvy for 2009 is 6.38% if I m not mistaken, much higher than FD. 

Today went to Maybank Kl central to open AS1M account but was told Indian quota is fully subscribe.

Counter 3, the staff who distribute the waiting number told me and the staff at counter 3 not to open AS1m account due to few reason she mentioned. one of them was indian quota full subscribed But managed to top up 1k to ASW.

yea, he top up 5k each for ASM & AS1M.
