I think most probably not.....why not read just a few posts up......posts by Ramjade worth considering.....

yes,...many......
managed port also many ......same, same many....

but between 29 Dec and 2 Jan...my DIY is +0.5 where else FSM's is -0.03

profit takings, corrections, same as you will get ill....

Sure all these can and will happens, denying the possibility of these happening is unwise, so is too prepared and preoccupied with the fear of them......it is when, how severe and for how long......that is the unknown.....
Volatility is here to stay, managed them not the other way round. Don't let them manage you.

just like zuxen's buffet......have some meat, veg, starchy food, fruits, milk/diary, beans, fishes, exotic food, etc, etc....don't go gung ho like too much heart jumping food, (Eq) or cholesterol fat food (too focused) or boring food (FI)
like past forummer posted....
Diversify, have some of these and that for a wholesome, holistic and healthier prolonged meal....
after having gathered your diversified /balanced food on the plate...sit back and enjoy the meal....
if don't know...can try follow FSM managed port's model....

while waiting for responses, can try read post 11078 and 11090...I think it has some similarity to what you asked....

yes,
when US mkts drops....so will China nd the rest of the global mkts....
when CHina drops,...so will US and the rest of the global mkts.....
it is how severe will each of them be impacted and for how long each of them be impacted.

thus...it is always recommended to set your FI:EQ allocation properly and invest with the money that you would not want to touch for a few years....

2017 was a good year for EQ and yet you lost 4% with your 20%FI:80%EQ?
mind telling what did your portfolio consisted of and how many % each?

I guess you gung ho into gold and mineral

yeah,..maybe that is right...the SC already are a killer of ROI....
btw,...my Public mutual Asia Ittikal fund did much better than my Ponzi 1.0 for 2017...yes better but only for 2017

KENANGA INVESTORS’ FIRST ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FUND

Kuala Lumpur, 18 December 2017: Kenanga Investors Berhad (“Kenanga Investors”) recently launched its first Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) fund, Kenanga Global Multi Asset Fund (the “Fund”). This fund aims to deliver absolute returns in any market condition by diversifying into global index futures with a long/short strategy

“The new Fund is the first of its kind in Malaysia, leveraging on breakthroughs in artificial intelligence (“AI”) to identify profit opportunities from short term predictive relationships in pricing and volume data. It then constructs portfolios with a focus on capital preservation based on forecasts of instruments’ movements."

https://www.kenangainvestors.com.my/KIB/KIB...AF%20Launch.pdf

i think it is not available in FSM yet....

about 6 months back...FSM did mention this in one of their article....

"In the race to garner more asset under management (AUM), some fund houses have resorted to tactics of declaring dividends frequently, as this may lead to misinterpretation that the funds are doing well and investors may be inclined to invest more into the “good dividend” funds. Investors who fell prey to this may be left with empty baskets in the long run."



also, for those interested about the left pocket to right pocket logic and the "cheaper price now" ....pls read page 555, post 11081

ALL ASNB branches will sure have this 100 units available to anyone walking to open and buy this ASNB FP funds?
or need to take the chances on the availability the 100 units, thus the chances of not able to open the a/c??

just got an SMS promo material from Affin Hwang...
"Opportunity is here now in global small companies. Ask us about Affinhwang world Series-Global Quantum Fund"....

another option for a small allocation of global small cap funds in the portfolio instead of only Asia Small Cap fund thru Ponzi 1.0?

I think if viewing from the portfolio allocation perspectives....
for diversification purposes on any single market fund....
an allocation of about 10~15% to KGF would be ok for risk mitigation.....given the current valuation is still ok
the notion of don't just sai lang or go too heavy into any one EQ fund would acceptable

Yes, sell off any excess allocation of over 5% of the portfolio value + if there is no other fund in your portfolio that covers M'sia.
Yes, Dragon is recommended if the overfall China/HK allocation in your portfolio is to be maintained at 10%

btw, why Dragon and not EI Dinasti or Cimb Greater China?
not right or wrong just individual preferences

today still have? did yo check? if still have ...can still transact today....that is if you have time and want to do it

ok...noted your replies.

I for one is not very tempted to go into any funds that does not has a long track records in terms of performance, risk rewards and its resilent too (thus no for any new fund), ...unless I really need that fund to feed into my portfolio allocation.
I for one does not look into the top holdings of the fund for the holdings published may had already been changed or abandoned.
at times, I just look at (without serious thought) the % of sector allocation...not each individual sector's holding.
