Newbie here, just started last month, my current holdings:

Affin Hwang Select Asia (Ex Japan) Opportunity Fund - 16.6%
CIMB-Principal Asia Pacific Dynamic Income Fund - 16.6%
Eastspring Investments Balanced Fund - 16.6%
RHB Emerging Markets Bond Fund - 50.0%

Trying to achieve a more balance portfolio here, now only dare to buy recommended funds.

Going for long term maybe 5 to 10 years. Would be happy if able to achieve >6% per annum.

Any sifus care to comment?

Curious, why 'balance' portfolio? why not more aggressive?

while waiting for his reply....may i suggest you read from afew pages back.......there he has come up with a very comfortable 5 funds portfolio that to me is very sound.....
Some few pages back he did mention his risk preference......
But bear in mind that your assume risk 8 may not be my assumed risk 8....
If you cannot managed to find that post abt the 5 funds port...tell us....i am sure he or others can help

Rhb em bond at 50%......the volatility of tis fund is higher than some EQ funds

I'm sorry! Not in the mood for spoonfeeding now...

small fish student investor here, been through up and down for the past 4 years..
Black Swan haha.. US invade North Korea..

Testing water first, want to be able to sleep soundly at night . How old r u and how much ROI r u expecting? I'm 29 this year, risk appetite still quite low now. Was into stocks before earned some burned some .

It's a relatively new fund compared to others. I chose this because it's 95% tied to United Emerging Markets Bond Fund. Steady growth since 2001 and focus on government bonds, lower risk.

Anyway should I buy into CIMB-PRINCIPAL GLOBAL TITANS FUND? Want to extend my portfolio US/EU/Jap region equities. Currently Asia and Malaysia only. Maybe buy sikit sikit.

28... my portfolio is 91% equity, 5% bond, 3% reits. My Target is 8% p.a.

I have cash which are NOT my emergency fund, which can be invested, which almost in equal amount to my UT portfolio. In a way, i'm also quite a chicken, 50% cash 50% invested.

Other money is for emergency purposes.

Thank you for highlighting that for me
Is this the one?

KGF @ 15%
REITs @ 10%
TA-GTF @ 25%
Esther Bond @ 30%
RHB EMB @ 20%.

90% of my cash is still in FD with at least 4% interest, always actively looking for FD promo. Waiting them to mature then slowly move them to UT, currently UT approx 10% the rest in FDs. Just started investing in UT last month. Now currently still got some spare cash to buy into new funds. Mind sharing ur portfolio?

I got 20% RHB AIF.....

And xuzen has stopped promoting RHB AIF....

What should i do? Switch to othet UT? I only havr it for a .month. Should i wait longer.

I last heard xuzen have AIF too...

And i dont even know what wrong with AmReits. Always negative

You mean my FSM fund portfolio?

i am 22 and i have 10% bond and 15% REIT..
I think it depends on one's risk profile..
I pick 10% bond, cause 110 - age = 8%
REIT cause it's stable income..


I have been through 100% eq, when it dropped 15%.. heart beat faster..

yes.
that is the latest one....

Should one still keep ponzi1, ponzi2 and titanic due to recent stagnant performance or should one switch ?

Be confident with what you have bought. Ask yourself whu did you buy it in the first place.

Amasia fund manager lousy.
Wonder if it can even reached 5% in a year...

that's the golden question isn't it?

But a lot FM and FSM itself is pushing for Asia Pac..
Potential upside..

buy and holds funds because you need them in the portfolio
select and allocated the % well

funds performance goes up, down and flat at times....

does the 3 funds that you mentioned are still in 3 1/2 FSM star ratings and above?
how many % have you allocated to each of them?

if your investment strategy is aim to be making money almost weekly....try buy into the weekly highest returns ranking funds and hope that it will stay for a few weeks more.
