Interesting...may i know which FI fund houses?...
Their own personal private money or the funds?
I thought even FI funds ..they have a mandate to follows too....i think 100% is not in their mandate....
I maybe wrong thus needs yr input on the fundhouses to check the fund factsheets

not from FSM...thus cannot check...
looks like the Chart in the latest factsheet, "maybe" wrong....(wrong data compilation)
it is against the prospectus and the fundfactsheet.....which is wrong.

do you have that fund?...if have ...can call up the Sales to confirm?

saw it...suspect error in data compilation....
it is against the prospectus and fact sheet on the asset allocation to be maintained....

I too found an interesting data chart....

some may look at the data from the BLUE and RED columns to make decision

some may look at the data from the BLUE and GREEN columns to make decision

i guess it does not matters which colors are used.......for it is your own decisions and your own money.....
which one will be correct?....only historical data from the action taken will determine which one is correct.

A gentle note of caution

Wild Ride in Markets Driving You Up the Wall?

Are Markets Making you Sick?
Investing can be a mentally stimulating excursion. At once a highly regimented art form deeply rooted in technical analysis & financial theory, but also reliant on gut feel, grit and plenty of gumption.

So when markets vault and fall, some investors can get overwhelmed and be swept away by the volatility.

Studies have shown that stock market volatility has a direct correlation to increased hospitalisation rates and incidences of mental health disorders.

A research produced in 2014 which tracked hospitalisation health records close to three decades (1983 – 2011) found that daily fluctuations in stock prices has an almost immediate impact on the physical health of investors, with sharp price declines increasing hospitalization rates over the next two days.

In a chilling example, on October 19, 1987 otherwise known as Black Monday, the US stock market plunged by over 25% which led to hospital admissions spiking by over 5% on the same day (Source: “Worrying About the Stock Market: Evidence from Hospital Admissions” by Joseph Engelberg and Christopher Parsons, University of California- San Diego, October 2014).

Sounds alarming, but that’s what the data shows.

However, the important lesson here is that whilst markets are bound to recover and benchmark gauges will recoup their losses, your health may take a turn for the worse and deteriorate beyond the normal course of recovery.
