Great to hear that, I also received PM as well from forummer asking about FSM SG.
My favorite Asia ex japan fund goes to First State Dividen Advantage which give me quite decent of return IRR @ 13.08% for more than 2 and half years. But still lose abit to my Ponzi 2.0 performance la..

Or you might start a thread focus about FSM SG and do not mix with long go version here, later make ppl lagi pening kepala.

Good idea to have a new thread on this. So that we may know more.

I think UOB got this RM25 thingy

Now RM so weak, you move to SGD to invest.. good?

yup. agreed.

I suggest u open a thread on FSM Singapore because u invest longest @ 3 years

Remember to list your recommended funds.

RHB you meant right?

Maybe 3 ringgit to 1 sing dollar is the correct level that will remain for years; things don't have to be like the stock market where there can be a sharp rebound after each sharp drop, take for example the gold price of 1600/oz correcting to lower than 1200/oz and staying there after the correction.

For years we have higher inflation than Sing, and wage raises in respond to inflation, not due to productivity and efficiency. Like price of chicken rice going up, but chicken rice seller doing the same work year after year.

It would not be right if we, with our higher wages, pay more to the chicken rice seller here, but pay the chicken rice seller in Sing in sing dollar the same cost as previous years. The currency exchange rate is the 'unseen hand' correcting the difference.

The 'unseen hand' cannot be easily noticed. It is never to due one or several factors influencing the market. So don't trust any 'theory' that say that the market can be re-corrected by adjusting or eliminating a handful of factors.

If the forex rate is so easily manipulated by adjusting a few factors, smart people would have done it a long time ago and the forex rate would have been 1 ringgit to 1 sing dollar ages ago.

oh Pinky KiasuLand people. I didn't know

If Labah-Labah merah jambu is from Tiny Little Red Dot across the causeway? WTF is he doing in Bolehland FSM?

Guess is using SGD exchange to get more money from Malaysia?

su that la, toi la nguoi Vietnam

Sự Thật Là Tôi là người Việt Nam?

This forex thingy is a double-edged sword... it cuts both ways. When MYR strengthen against SGD, then you'll wish for the other way.

1) My question is, investing in equity is already a risk (market risk);

2) investing in a foreign equity add on another layer of risk (market + country specific risk);

3) buying foreign asset using a foreign currency is just piling on the risk (market + country specific / political + forex risk)

Why take on so many unnecessary risks? When you calculate your portfolio risk-reward ratio, you'll go

Stay safe in motherland lar!

I have no idea WTF you are saying... but it sound so sexseh!

Huh, really? That is news to me and apparently also news to some forumers here (judging from their replies).

I am puzzled. Why would a Singaporean invest in FSM Malaysia? Wouldn't FSM Singapore be a better choice with such a wide range of funds and zero entry fee?

Hi Pinky, don't misunderstand me. I have nothing against Singaporeans.

I am further consolidating the number of funds that I have. Too many funds now....getting killed in the cross fire.

When I have enough moolah, I may kick start my supplementary portfolio again or start a small gambling portfolio again.

For now, I have to concentrate on my core portfolios.

Xuzen I think pinky doesn't care about the forex risk. How much can he lose? SGD will always outperform rm anyday. Even if RM strengthen, it will never be SGD1:RM1 but always SGD1 :RM2.x

But Pink Spider really Singaporean?
