Not attractive a prize enough to give up sales charge sales lah ...

She was a darling during her heydays for sure. But I had to let her go. Her cousin seems more exciting now. Hehe..

KGOF

Not much choice in Tech funds through FSM. Anyone knows if the other platform have more choices?

Thanks! I filtered through FSM and found the same few funds.
TA Global Tech seems to be a fav here but looking at its benchmark, doesn't look too appetizing. Any input?

ETA : Wouldn't touch PM with a ten foot pole!

I guess most investors will look at what you are looking at, which is *can I expect to get XX% pa in X year/s*, myself included.
But I also like to look at if the fund can make me X% pa more and that is when comparing the fund's performance to its benchmark comes in.

Absolutely! The returns so far have been positive so yeah, will see if I want plunk it down my port (when sales roll around).

Merdeka promotion will start after their current promo ends, hopefully. I am sitting and waiting here...

It's Here!!

RHB Gold and General Fund has been red for a week now so I have been waiting for this sale to go in more. Other funds though, as you mentioned, really all time high. I DCA a few so can't really say much else.

Switched KGF to KGOF but still holding on to Eastspring Investment Small Cap and Principal Asia Pacific Dynamic Income Fund.
They are both still looking good to me ... steady ... so why the not so goldy anymore statement ya?
I still have Asnita and Nomura as well, haha ....

Mine is 26.87% since 2017 as well. Entered back in April. Quite a difference there...

Portfolio diversification taking a backseat while I am trying to gain some from KGOF speedy movement. Will eventually move after the speed subsides?
Since the switch a few weeks ago, ROI is at 4.7%.

Top 10 Holdings

Alibaba Group Holding Ltd Cayman Islands 9.12
Tencent Hldg Ltd HK, China 8.66
Reliance Industries Ltd India 6.47
Taiwan Semiconducter Manuf Taiwan 5.85
Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd South Korea 5.23
LG Chem Ltd South Korea 5.06
BHP Group Ltd Australia 3.16
Techtronic Industries Co HK, China 2.69
Hong Kong Exchanges & Clearing HK, China 2.61
China Resources Land Ltd HK, China 2.35

Quite happy with the holdings allocations here, so I will keep holding unless US China starts going batsheep with each other causing the Asian market to react violently.

Comparing both funds, Principal Asia Pacific Dynamic Growth fund has a higher volatility so you're correct that Principal Asia Pacific Dynamic Income Fund is a more steady dividend income fund.
Btw, are more China focused funds aiming for growth?

Sifu sifu, may I know the purpose of opening additional accounts in FSM?

Thanks for the insight. So if someone wants to save on sales charges, they can utilize up to 6 accounts. Whoah.....

Wah,steady lah boss!
Ini really ALL IN one specific country. You either swim or sink with it. Takes plenty of guts.

Finally my Kenanga Growth Opportunities Fund has turned green.....
But for how long leh?

It's like a roller coaster ride...gold fund was my highest gainer yesterday +3.4134
Still, this port remains in the red.
I am in it for the long term but sometimes the head and the heart aren't on the same page.
