Hi all, I suddenly thought of something.

(1)
Let's say I have a target return of 20% on each fund (equity), once hit target and I will sell it, and I may miss the boat of riding the profits higher, while I may save myself from getting a lower profit later on.

I'll take this 20% as my return this year, and will invest in the same fund in the next year to reset the profit to 0. The reason for this is because I noticed that the fund can go high and drop back to form a finalized YTD return for that year before starting a new year. I don't know how high it can go, so might as well i set a target i'm comfortable with and exit when it hit.

(2)
Also, I came across Dollar cost average strategy and I think it doesn't make sense for me despite I understand its concept. Provided you don't choose the wrong fund, generally the fund will generate return as time passed, means higher NAV over time, DCA means keep buying the high every month and you'll have trouble making a profit, might as well you invest a sum since day 1 and let it run until your target and exit.

What do you think?

what if it did not managed to hit 20% in a year or 2?
continue to wait for another few years?

could the "yearly" high "to" low NAV of the fund happens before and after the new year caused by income distribution incidents?

Yes, DCA works provided you DON"t
1) choose the wrong fund,
2) invested at the wrong time,
3) invested in the wrong region/countries/sector,
4) invested without proper portfolio set up,
5) etc, etc...

having said that....the above "DON'Ts" also applies to Lumps sump investment too, don't you think so.
... biggrin.gif

"DCA means keep buying the high every month and you'll have trouble making a profit".....
As the market keeps going up and down, when the markets is on a down trend, DCA means keep buying the lower NAV every month and you'll have NO trouble making a profit when it is on the upswing... biggrin.gif

DCA takes care of market timings by mechanically investing a fixed amount every month whether the markets are soaring or bleeding. More units are purchased when the market is bad (i.e. when the unit trust is "cheap"), and lesser units are purchased when the market is doing well (i.e. when the unit trust is "expensive"). It is a simple strategy that involves zero human interference or subjective judgement.

Neither Is 'Better' Than The Other
In all fairness, nobody can say for certain whether LSI or DCA is the better investment method. The reason is that adopting both methods in a different period would give different results depending on the prevailing market conditions.
For example, if you made a lump sum investment right when the FBM KLCI bottomed out in end March 2009, there's no way that the DCA method could give you better annualised returns. In a nutshell, it all boils down to market timing and whether you can catch the market's peaks and trenches.

Rebalance on Algozen™ ver 4.0? Not likely, I purposely set my rebalance date after CNY2018. I only did a rebalance in Qtr-3:Yr-2017 which is less than half a year ago. I plan to do rebalance twice a year.

Ver 5? Not likely... if the wheel ain't broken, don't fix it.

What I will do is I will have a yamcha / tok-kok / blow water session with my Lic Financial Planner cum sei-tong / hommies / buddy this coming new year eve. There I will ask him what is his house view on 2018. Then I will update all those who are interested.

So stay tuned.

Hi, I was comparing a few Greater China Funds and come across a fund that does not trade class "A" share (because they don't have QFII licence?).

Do you think this will affect the fund's return? unsure.gif

no idea....
if you want, can try use the FSM tool to see
goto FUNDS INFO/ CHART CENTER/
to see and compare with your fund?

Hmmn great idea.

So I compared the earnings of similar funds using FSM tool.
It seems like this fund is not performing well compared to other funds.

But still, I don't know if this is due to this fund did not trade class A shares or any other reasons.

In addition I did another check on this fund.
Their investment management has been delegated to an external investment manager, and this external investment manager do have QFII licence.
So I think the decision not to trade class A share is purely an investment strategy? unsure.gif

i think the better option is for you to determine how each fund(s) compliments your overall investment stratergy....
may i suggest you try to use the fund(s) under the "recommneded fund lists"....they may not be the best in terms of ROIs but at least they were "filtered" in some methodology....

Thanks for the tips!

I was doing some extra homework since I have few days of holiday.
But from my personal reading so far, in terms of "good funds", it frequently points back to these recommended funds. nod.gif

Happy New Year everyone! May everyone continue to prosper in this new year~

Any idea on whether FSM will be having any promotion this month? Thinking to rebalance my portfolio for this new year...

Edit: Looking at last year they have a 1% promotion during their investment fair which falls in the middle of the month till end of the month. Seems like gonna hold my bullet till then...

looking at yr chart.....from the period of END May to Dec....your DIY port increased from 7.X% to 12.X%, thus about 5.x%
while the managed port increased at about the same rate from END May to Dec......
hmm.gif just wondering which one has higher portfolio's volatility confused.gif
