Hmm .. China gdp was uptrending for like 20 years and latest was not up to expectations, but not significant.
US gdp growth abit..

These recession forecasting was based on trade war mainly follow by brexit..

Not wrong to diversify into precious metals.. also take note tat gold might not be needed in electronics devices, of cos not now but probably in near future..

if opr hike = theoretically, bond will lose out.. long or short
reason, when opr hike, if ur bond bought at 5%, newer bond issued will be higher than yours..

but do your research, arent sure if my books returned to lecturer yet

fed continuously raise their rate since 2016.. from 0.2 to 2.4
if not mistaken, 2015/2016 one of my fd manage to get 4.5%@12month/nonVIP but js tat one time.. now mostly 4.3/4.4 @12m/nonVIP

was hopping msia will at least follow half.. but.....

err... if those buying for ownself living, not a significant burden.. but flipper, well these flipper are one of the main reason why property price are ridiculous..

no worries tho, doubt it will happen in msia.. msia kept saying inflation under control.. gdp are strong.. growth are good..

but do keep in mind, usa might just keep raising their rate..

Usually the profit making
And see tat if the losing money due to fund underperforming or market sentiment

imo, only fd.. in terms of liquidity and returns.. but do check if withdrawal premature penalty.. i know rhb's got.. other's dunno yet since other fd haven mature yet.

but if those cash/bullet are specifically for fsm in case of crash, rhb cash management spot on..

jan -18%
feb -9%

that escalated quick..

meh, probably it wont ok.. and even if by the time its ok or not ok, most ppl/investor already used to the ''fearing'' factor
and as long as trump still the us president, it wont be good/up trending market imo
he will stir up something new to upset the market

somehow, i do think these are ''dramas''
for their, be it china or us or their allies to make market all time low, sell it high

what can i say, he's the self-proclaimed angel, while part timing for demon
plus, like i said, its ''drama''
maybe their holdings sold off jz right before trade wars
and now there are ''drama-ing'' to re-enter

who knows, i mean who benefits the most from all the chaos..
not tat i hate nor like it, i still dca-ing and preparing bullet

i bought RHB-GS US Equity Fund on dec, averaging around 0.93++
now its 1.0

but its kinda expected to uptrending since trump have been keeping his big mouth shut ever since the ''peace'' talk and gov shutdown but of cos u cant expect a trumpet so silent for sooo long..

he's out and kicking asses now, again

Seems like Trump knew trade war effect are getting weaker so another wave of new "fear" is coming

Hope the market will jz categories all these are Trump effect and jz ignore it..

dayum.. approximately 1% increase per week.. thats like 4% per MONTH!

trump is a damn wild horse.. i dont think its good to sailang but increase the amount/% of DCA

i guess my decision to enter a-share market and dca all the way arent that wrong lol

Almost time for my DCA.. lol

Is either epf or fd for your case..
Brush up your knowledge 1st

Once knowledge build up, start your investment

haha.. like i said, when trade war wave calm down, he will start another wave..
although, imo the effect arent as big as trade war yet

Me
It's my one of my DCA of the month

fastest growing in my portfolio
from -7% to 9% in 6 months or so..

If not mistaken, the drop was indeed a correction (imo and was wondering when correction coming) plus news related to weak China export..

But as far as I know China already started some counter measure like lowering tax.. should have some more but I can't recall

I just top up last week 😅
