I am planning to
reduce my position in fixed income and be more aggressive to enter into equity fund. Yes, this time , I will follow Buffet's sage advise and be hungry when others are fearful.
My target is KGF [ RM 25K ] & Dinasti [ RM 25k ] next month.
Yeah baby, I'm feelin lucky.
========================
Thinking out loud on Malaysia Bond exposure... my preferred is Asnita Bond and she was my darling when it come to Fixed Income. However, when the USD / MYR play skewed in favour of USD dominance, Asnita and other MYR denominated fixed income became unattractive vis-à-vis foreign currency exposure. That is why Esther Bond as well as other foreign REITs was de-rigeur for the past one year.
Now that the reverse is happening, Asnita once again is the safe haven she was before. I'll exit my Reits position in favour of pure equity as well.
I am on a risk-on mode.

i remember that, u mentioned you were going to replace your fixed income (RHB EMB) with REIT and believed that REIT is an enhanced fixed income.
if u can sustain by replacing fixed income with REIT in recent dips, then u should be no problem to increase EQ/FI ratio. Both of them should have similar risk level.
Good luck.
For me, i think that fixed income are needed to stabilize the portfolio during dips/ correction/ volatile time. Therefore, i choose to remain my position with fixed income but majority of them will be in ASNB Fixed price fund. Because, i could not find any [B]consistent[\B]** bond fund which is always outperformed 6% p.a.
** [B]consistent[\B] = 1M ROI >= 0.5% && 3M ROI >= 1.5% && 6M ROI >= 3% && 1/2/3/Y ROI >= 6% ==> ALWAYS IRR >= 6% p.a.
