the new website i dont like the watchlist page, i prefer old watchlist UI, can compare performance to see, 1week, 1mth, 3mth, 6mth  that kind of info

Just my humble but worthless inputs, both funds are almost similar and should be classified under moderate risk type between 4 to 6 on the scale of 1 to 10.

Ignore it.
I didn't study the FFS.

If I can predict the wave so accurate, I'll be the next Buffett.
It depends on investment horizon.
If you foresee that there'll be an upside from now, you can switch.
If I were you who want to focus purely equity, I'll switch into more aggressive fund which Affin Hwang Asia ex Japan Select Opportunity fund.

Would like to avoid the mistake I did switching out my Principal Global Titan Fund before the election. Now it’s doing so well.

many factor can influence a portfolio performance.

not switching in and out is probably a good one.

think how your portfolio perform as a whole rather than looking at each individual fund performance only.

an all weather portfolio.

i like to diversify my fsm portfolio to multiple region n at least some in gold.
