my uneducated guess is...to many funds with < 5% allocations that are Overlapping.
(even though some of the funds may have an ROI of 30% for that year...it will have not much impact to your portfolio ROI)
your main portfolio performance contribution are from KGF and RHB Islamic bond....
any movement of this will have major impact to your portfolio ROI.
both are focusing mainly on Malaysia....
if you are happy with that...ok lor....

oic
most would advise to go for a diversified portfolio, do not invest by rear view investing methods, positions your portfolio to capture the stronger upswing % potential, etc, etc.
but, in the end of the day.....it is all up to individual.
the good news is that you got a positive return currently while most are not.

any idea why they NOT participate? did he say why?

It depends on what u buy now. Ex buy bond now switch later to eq kena sc.
Some fh has switching fees.
Some fund has holding period.
Normally same fh, intra switch between same asset class is free no extra charge.
Check fsm faq for details

"Are my funds allocation above healthy? Or bad?"
it is all in you.....each has his/her own risk appetite or preference.
but looking at your portfolio....
based on MINE risk appetite....
wow...you have got VERY high risk appetite ....
HEAVY in single country or specific, high volatile funds you got there.

if you mean sales charges.....then this might helps....

European Central Bank pulls out all the stops

Boom! The European Central Bank has fired its big bazooka once again in a bid to get the economy moving again.

The ECB on Thursday cut all three of its main interest rates to new record lows -- taking the deposit rate even deeper into negative territory -- and said it would print more money as it tries to head off deflation in the eurozone.

Economists were expecting a rate cut and more asset purchases. But the ECB went further: It said it will start buying debt issued by companies as well as governments.

The European Central Bank came out with all guns blazing Thursday to jump start the stalled eurozone economy, slashing already record-low interest rates, pumping massive new sums into the banking system and, for the first time, buying corporate bonds.

The unprecedented scale of the ECB's action took financial markets by surprise, sparking a dramatic rise in eurozone stock markets and sending the euro lower against the dollar.
