FSM recommended Moderately Aggressive portfolio just re-balanced with 5% less FI to more 5% EQ 
Currently set 20:80 for FI:EQ, was 25:75 

Yeah read it and also the other infomation in the website regarding the managed portfolios. Since in a fresh graduate and baru je mula kerja, i believe the agressive portfolio would be the best option to me. Im aware of all the risks and the 1.25 service charge and the 0.5% annual fee. I also know that this portfolio (and the other 4) are well suited for people like me la, who have no interest to research and manage own funds .what i would like are opinions on people who have bought the portfolios as the trial run graph of the portfolios seems good.

Mind sharing the 2017 composition ?

You have 5% equity in India, China etc but you have like >20% in Malaysia. Quite a heavy bet in bolehsia.

I am now trying to avoid imagining some guy twerking. I hope you look like Shakira 

Actually I think he was not totally consistent in using the 3 year volatility as the way to allocate.

I just did a quick check, ponzi 2.0 has higher return and better volatility compared to KGF, but allocation wise it is 10% vs 15%. 

Eastspring Dinasti also higher return and lower volatility compared to Cimb Greater China.

Or it was because these are moving figures, and thus it can't be strictly adhered to ?

Best to take profits now, as we’re all a bit too relaxed about North Korea

‘Asian markets, and in particular South Korean assets, are especially vulnerable to a further deepening of the crisis’

Serious question: shall we?

meh. weak hearted investors will run and be afraid.

true investors will take the chance to buy more

Good friend Avangelice,

What do you think, good friend, perhaps such an answer is not appropriate as it has no benefit to the reader. Perhaps, good friend, you may consider saying in an alternative way such as this:

"Such event is of little consequence to an investor who still is far away from retirement. This investor, perhaps is in the twenty something age, many winters and summers yet to experience before reaching retirement. He should not be overly concern with short term world 's ups and down.

However, for someone who is perhaps may need to use the money in six month or less, then such an investor is appropriate to watch the news more closely and react accordingly.

Weak or true is not an appropriate measure of an investor, length of time expected to hold the investment asset is a better gauge"

finally market wake up tomorrow after 5 days sleep!

I think the longest sleep?

Even festive season also never sleep that long! haha

us economy is over bought and is facing a bubble burst.

They actually save ur ass. Global titans dropped alot these dew days. Due to sudden strengthening of ringgit. Btw, for mine they are buying into amincome plus fund.

Please check ur.monthly statement for August 2017. They are reducing Exposure to EQ. And going overweight on FI. Allocation to Global titans KGF Ponzi 2 and two eastspring funds are reduced on 30/8.

For newbie like me, it is better to use managed port while I am learning how to diy my own portfolio

For those that don't do DCA and do lump sum, how do you separate your gains by purchase time.

I  purchased during August last year, April , Jun, July this year.  I would like to individually monitor the gains categorized by time of purchase. Is there any quick method to do that other than going through the history and manually calculating?

eg:- I would like to see my to date gains for my purchase in August 2016, April 2017 , jun 2017 and July 2017 separately.

....
They combine all the purchases for a single fund which means i have to manually separate them by time. Doable but just wondering how anyway to get it automatically.

it does not...im just asking coz thrs a tab in the file on fund allocation and was wondering why its not specified in the factsheet...
its 20%

.....
Personally I'd go for before hedging % as the chance of getting it right is higher than after hedging. But the USD denominated bond doesn't mean it's issued by a US corp la; any corp in any country can issue USD bond, but it's unlikely for a SG company to issue an IDR/MYR denominated bond

Not an expert, but what I did was use the equity portion of FSM's Moderately Aggressive portfolio in the ratios suggested and then topped up the bond portion with Affin Hwang Select Bond Fund:

Hi guys, i'm a total beginner and would like to ask for some advice. I just started investing in public mutual few months ago with minimum initial investment, but lucky enough before putting in more money i found fundsupermart. I've read about half of this tread and am interested to join in. Heres some questions that i hope you guys can help to answer.

1. How should i diverse my fund if i plan to invest 10k/50k/100k? any different?

2. Should i put in 1 lump sum in different fund, or should i RSP for the DCA? How should i divide my RSP?

3. I understand that in short term, the funds might drop. So is it safe to say that if i plan to invest at least 5 to 10 years, then i wont need to worry about the drop?

4. I remember a story about Xuzen in the first few pages in this tread, can i ask why did xuzen sell the fund when it drop 20%? if xuzen remain with the fund and in a few years time the fund rise back, what will happen then. example. I buy fund A for RM1.2, then drop to RM1, and in few years rise back to RM1.5, is my understanding correct that i have earn Rm0.3?

5. RHB cash management fund 2, from what i understand the profit per annual is around 3.3-3.5 with 0 risk, this fund is something like a bank fixed deposit correct?  Is there any fund with minimal risk, give reasonable return and i can take out cash whenever i want without any charges? better then put in FD.

Currently this are the questions that i can think of, i'm sure more questions will come soon after i read more from you guys.

Thank you very much.
