Kapchai fund still can go in ? Or wait

For the US market all time high, TA global tech lost 0.2%, other us equity funds lost >1%.

The correlation with index is so far off ? Is it because of ringgit strengthening ?

depending of how much % you wanted it to constitute in your portfolio.....
if you currently has less than 5%,...I would say yes...can still go in
if you currently has > 10%, ...I would say yes....wait a while more then decide.
if you have > 20%, I would say yes.......if you can stomach that heavy allocation and have other none so high risk investment......
if you have >50%, I would say yes......if you know what you are doing.
if you have >80%, I would say yes......if this % in RM terms is just kacang to you.
so it depends....

"The number of approved applications for investment withdrawal via the Members Investment Scheme (MIS), meanwhile, increased 15.4% to 179,351 involving an amount of RM1.57bil in Q3 2016 from 155,417 involving an amount of RM1.51bil in the corresponding period of 2015."

wow,....so many think they knows where to make > EPF rate......
why couldn't I....

So only people with 10%-20% need to wait, the rest is yes, can go in. Right?

from the article it states that less epf members withdraw their retirement savings upon reaching age 55. it's good no?

yes....can go in if you had waited long enough and had decided that it is now the time....

I guess most realised the track records.....or are not in the need to withdraw....then it is good.....as for them they have still have no need to withdraw it for life's subsistence.

Apple’s Top Assembler Foxconn Confirms Plans for U.S. Investment
Bloomberg News
December 7, 2016 — 12:37 AM EST

Foxconn Technology Group, the biggest assembler of Apple Inc. devices, is in preliminary discussions to make an investment that would expand the company’s U.S. operations.

The disclosure came hours after an announcement by U.S. President-elect Donald Trump and SoftBank Group Corp.’s Masayoshi Son to invest $50 billion in the U.S. and create 50,000 jobs. The money will come from SoftBank’s $100 billion technology fund, which was announced in October, a person familiar with the matter said. A document that Son held up after the meeting in Trump Tower also included the words “Foxconn,” “$7 billion” and “50,000 new jobs” in addition to SoftBank’s numbers.

as a Malaysian investor I would say no. political environment and instability of our leaders dampen our country's chance to grow big.

Tis is a million MYR to answer
Based on current scenarios, there is no catalyst for Bursa to shine
Having said tat, Bursa could b a superstar as market is irrational

wake me up when that happens. until then I'll be investing in specific Malaysian companies through stocks rather than a Malaysian fund

Then i know what to do alrdy. Will do switching to Eastspring Global Emerging.

same with me.



I made a lost of 2% and pulled out on the 1st December . now recovering whilst kapchai is still going down

I have been a participant in Kapchai UTF since mid 2013, my longest holding in any one fund, exclude the CMF.

Come this 31st Jan 2017, which is time for me to do my biannual portfolio re-balancing, I am considering to exit this fund in view of KLSE lackluster performance.
