I learned this trick from one of my tutors. treat one right and he or she will start bringing friends over.

Hi guys, I am still new into this. Just started to learn about unit trust. What would be a good advice for first timer?
I planning to invest 1k first on a fund for at least 6 months and see how it goes. Anything to recommend?

I don't know both funds... and just by basing the choice on their names. 

I'll pick the Asia fund... cause Global tech sounds heavy on USA and tech companies... and all the indices, Dow, S&P, Russell 2000 and Nasdac are at record high at the moment. Apple stock is at all time record high.

If still undecided and don't trust my 'analitycal' pick, then flip a coin. 

If the investment period is long enough, there may not be much difference between them in the long run... maybe 10-20% difference - which is sap sap sui when the total returns is 300% or more.

Like I would be very, very upset to get only 290% ROI instead of 310%...

"very, very" - 2017's popular phrase.

I don't think so.
Never mind then. Other than India, is it worth investing in greater china? For example, how about this fund: Eastspring Investments Dinasti Equity Fund?

Pick both.

may i suggest you invest for at least 3~5 yrs to see how it goes instead of at least 6 months.

My portfolio before it burst (if any)



Note: I only started with ponzi 2 on the first investment date due to RSP initial investment requirement

other funds coming up and also in and out for RSP on the next RSP date from the first investment date

Different sector. Hence asking you to pick both.
I am holding both just to experiment and see which one give me the returns. So far, Manulife is beating Amasia hands down.
How did you make it so colourful?

this. perfect example of sikit sikit akan menjadi bukit. doing good there little brother

late night house calls to vips and tan sris and working over time. I learned this trick from one of my tutors. treat one right and he or she will start bringing friends over.

also I am a specialist in orthopedic medicine, everyone has a back pain these days. think about it, look at children these days. wake up super early, sit in class rooms from morning to afternoon, tuition classes from noon to night, no sun,  lots of ipads and iPhones going around but not exercising. then they graduate from unis, they slog their entire lives in front of the pc and have erratic sleeping schedules.

sad to say it's going to be a lucrative business because it's better to treat a disc prolapse or total knee replacement rather than treating a terminal cancer patient

No because in 6 months time the fund could go down. Unit trust is totally not suitable for a short term investment. To see returns you usually need to wait a few years. Unit trust will always rise in the long run, but in the short term there can always be downsides. You need a long investment horizon (3+ years at least) to see any meaningful returns.

Roughly adds up to 80%? 20% uninvested/cmf?
