Lately noticing the RHB Asian total return was making less and less when printing statement.

Recheck... Price fall since Feb and never bounce back...

Total return seems stagnant...

About RHB AIF, also no making through.

Is RHB facing some hardship here....

No. It's USD at play. RHB Asian Total return = USD strength. If USD is weak, RHB Asian total return also weak.
Regardless RHB AIF, no idea.

if investing is based on this notion......
wouldn't it be a lot easier to just concentrate on these list.....
approximate 10% and MORE annualised returns for the past 10 years...

or select based on geographical allocation, (based on FSM star rating to determine the % variance) then based on the funds performance (peer to peer)

My EISC is currently at 12% profit. Should I skim profit one day before election?

calculate the profit against your over all portfolio and deduce if skimming it is worth it.

here's mine (12%) profit.

1000/65000x100=1.5%

plus if it does not skewer your allocation I say keep it.

when is the election?, how long to go? the situation with EISC can go in reverse, up some more or stayed flat from now till election .......

btw, why 1 day before election?

Because like stock price movements, buy on rumours, sell on facts.

you tengok AirAsia and AAX counter. more like buy on greed and sell on fear.

sell on facts 1 day before election?......
just wondering what facts that has so much impact to be expected?

I cabut lo.

Actually what facts do not matter one.

People just sell, whenever rumours ended, does not matter they become the truth or the false.

New Malaysian fund onboard by eastspring.

KUALA LUMPUR: Eastspring Investments Bhd has introduced its Islamic small capital (small-cap) fund, which will concentrate on syariah-compliant domestic stocks with potential returns in the medium to long term.

Eastspring chief executive officer Raymond Tang Chee Kin said that to date syariah funds under management in the local market recorded an 8% growth to RM96.7 billion. In comparison, the returns of FTSE Bursa Malaysia small-cap syariah index was 73.83% while that of FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI was 39.56%.
"Even though the returns of syariah index is slightly lower than the conventional stocks returns at 82.16%, we can see the gains from syariah counters improving," he told reporters after launching the Islamic Small-Cap Fund in Kuala Lumpur on Thursday.

Tang said a minimum 70% of the net asset value (NAV) would go to syariah-compliant equities and equity-related securities and a minimum 1% of asset allocation would be channeled to Islamic deposits or Islamic liquid assets.

"The small-cap segment is under-researched and under-servingly traded beyond its intrinsic value, so Eastspring will use this opportunity to unearth these small-cap companies and exploit the pricing inefficiencies," he added.

The initial issue price for the fund is 50 sen per unit for 21 days of the initial offer period beginning Thursday.

The minimum initial investment is RM1,000 and the minimum additional investment is RM100. As at March this year, the funds managed by the company stood at RM40 billion. - Bernama

Another option for shariah small cap. But it will take time before it appears on FSM though. Interesting to see how it goes head to head against PB Islamic smallcap which was recently launched too.

EDIT: just checked on FSM. It's already available.
