I believe once US earning season is over there will be correction happening.
Probably within August

I have bought into china fund today. Via the affin ETF though.

Time to buy buy buy for me. Who has not much china exposure.

Do you know if bursa gonna go up or down tomorrow?

KLSE +0.05% today btw.

i am a newbie
can recommend what to buy? got 15-20k rm
*** how to choose stocks??

Anyone familiar with these ETFs ?

idk much about this company, i will leave it to other sifu that know better.
but i guess there was a catalyst happened after covid, then after that spike all the way up to highest now.
too fast too high, kinda scary, unless their QR proven to be good.

Not sure when I keep hitting this error on FSm today   

Hello sifus

I have been researching and learning about ETF for weeks. Almost ready to invest tomorrow for the first time and wanted to share my thought process so that I can get advice if there is anything I missed or am mistaken.
I believe that China specifically (and not Hong Kong) still has potential to grow in the next 2-3 years

I want to invest in EFT for China because of lower expense ratio and lower sales charge than Unit Trust (which was my go-to previously)

I used to EFT filter to search for China EFT with lowest expense ratio.

I pick a 'familiar' name like Franklin Templeton vs an 'unfamiliar' name for me like Value Partners Asset Management Malaysia - just my personal preference
Any feedback/input for me to consider?

Hi Yklooi,
If it's a pure ETF, wouldn't it be the same returns regardless? That's why I picked lowest expense ratio
Can you help me understand?

too deep d bro...cannot understand.

i understand that all fund ll have incurred annual management fee,
but for this managed portfolio, i saw there is a quarterly fee of 0.5%, what i m refering is whether i need to pay twice the fee, one to FSM and the other one to the fund purchase by them

I entered China ETF for the first time: CHINAETF-MYR
Learning as I go.

now very cheap

Am also beginning with the vp dj shariah china A etf.

Is it a good time tp enter Malaysian equities now? Foreigns seem to be entering again.

How come expense ratio(0.2%) is lower than annual management fees(1.8%) for AmChina A-Shares ?

I am confused now. i thought expense ration INCLUDING management fees + lain lain?
So now total fees is 2% or 0.2 ?

Sold my managed portfolio on 30/8. Now only got email saying settlement date is on 10/9. Takes so long

Hi guys,

May i know why seems more people using fsm, compare to philip mutual which seldom people discuss there?

philip mutual often got 0%, where as fsm need 2% service charge?

Thanks

for me, i prefer FSM over eMutual Funds from Philip mutuals, even if FSM charges me 0.5% - 1.5% one-off bcoz:
1. website usability & usefulness
2. customer service & response
3. shares & world ETFs available too - all in one, ease. now if only they allow foreign stocks too heheh then maybe bye bye HLiB / HLeB.

that's just personal preferences - i dont like painful websites & phone apps 

at the beginner level, I was looking at forums, social media groups, friends.

At a later stage, I start to realize News like recently China imposing game regulations that will be the biggest threat for Tencent group.
Or previously China scrutinize Alibaba Jack ma, but that was long ago. All this news is the key point to determine when is the best time to buy for me.

If I want to buy Malaysian small cap, i will look at the direction of Malaysian situation. Like when they will re-open parliament. or when is the MCO relaxation, which means business come back.

I am also constantly looking at health funds, like United Global Healthcare Fund, because the world now in Pandemic, health sector will boost.

I can be wrong. I am still learning.

Yeah sorry I meant after the correction I'll enter, but what's the most efficient manner of getting exposed to US index funds? Is it via unit trust or directly buying ETFs? Idk if the nonresident alien tax 30% is a big factor that would be a con for buying directly?

Haha ok bro thanks for this, was the response I was trying to get between buying direct vs. going through UT. UT expense ratio also seems way higher than something like VOO.

No direct interference yet so far.
