hi guys, unit trust newbie here, how do we gain return from a fund?

it seems a fund will maintain the NAV, so they keep giving out new units?
*
A fund won't maintain the NAV. NAV will keep going up and down depending on the market provided there's no distribution/dividend/unit split If there's a distribution/dividend/unit split, you will x% amount of units and NAV of the fund will also drop by x%

Do there are two ways a fund can do? Increase units in circulation or let the NAV increase?

Read again. When a fund increase unit by x times, the NAV of the fund also drop by x times.

Actually I understand the concept, I wanted to know the actual practice. Do you actually own UT?
I believe Kenanga growth fund issue additional unit or cash distribution ? They have very good return but the NAV doesn't grow much

Of course I own UT. That's why I am talking to you biggrin.gif

All distribution will be reinvested back into the fund (as I said earlier give you x% distribution, price drop by x% = no change). Unless you yourselg go itchy hand withdraw it. If you take a look at Manulife India, you will see that there's no distribution involve. So what you see is what you get.

On the prospect of Ringgit ..
"The currency could reach 4.1 to the dollar in the second half, said Lee Kok Kwan, who is also a director at lender CIMB Group Holdings Bhd. The fair value of the ringgit should be between 3.8 and 4.0, when benchmarked against regional and commodity currencies, said Lee, who accurately predicted in January that the currency will rebound from a 19-year low."

Ringgit is on a appreciating trend, so funds that are affected by forex could see less profit in the coming months. And ramjade keep saying ringgit no hope tongue.gif

Ramjade has always been an advocate of Singapore and thinks malaysia is one shit country to invest in. while having a cheap currency is bad to some but to companies it's a cheaper alternative

http://www.thestar.com.my/business/busines...to-lower-costs/

Singapore can't keep up its expensive currency for long nor does it have a land mass enough to support more of its economy plus fast aging population combined with that their foreign workers are getting more than their locals. I do not see a long term goodness coming to Singapore.

malaysia on the other hand is plagued by bad governance since its birth but make no mistake we have born some of the riches Forbes members on the planet that's not including our 2.6 billion prime Minister.
Two sides of the coin. all are welcome.
*
Well you have your views, I have mine. Of course they can. If you understand SG economics you know that for them a strong SGD is good. It let them import items at cheap price, assemble it/modify it then sell off at cheap price. A strong currency helps to lower inflation and it's helpful in a country which impirt everything.

Heck, malaysia is selling them water at cheap price and buying back from them at expensive price. Let's not forget that SG is known as Switzerland of the East. In the recent crackdown by indon govt to bring money back home, only 10% of it was bought back. 70% of it is in SG (declared but not bought back). Rich indons are smart. There's a reason for that. Tax haven (low tax for the rich) + low income tax strict banking laws. That's why the rich comes to SG and park their money there. eg. Jet Li, Eduardo Saverin (one of FB founder),

When you have one of the most free, safest and stable place to do business (the other being HK), it's a magnet for investment. If you been to JB you will know. It's very unsafe place. Just across the Causeway, you feel the difference. You actually fear getting rob.

SG doesn't need to rely on local population. They rely on foreign talent (especially from malaysia). 50%+ of people in SG are foreigners. And these are not your normal run of the mill bangla, indon, nepal. TB is practically non existence in SG. Unlike us, TB used to be almost wipe out. Thanks to influx of indon, bangla, nepalese, TB is back and kicking in malaysia. These are all highly skill people. That's why some people said as a foreigner, you are treated better than local Singaporeans. We take in more unskilled workers while they take in more skilled workers (including ours).

True they have no land, but they are always building more land. Their development unit planned everything and don't just simply built things.

Let's not forget their national budget. Unlike us, we always ask for extra in January. They on the other hand always have extra sad.gif Singapore govt is one of the richest country with a AAA raring by all 3 rating agency. On the contary, US did one even get AAA.
That's why unlike most country which depend on interest rate to control the economy, SG uses appreciation against a basket of trading partner currency. (SGD must appreciate against their trading parther over time)

This is 2015 news but still relevant aa MAS is expected to resume this policy again later this year.
QUOTE
Since October 2012, MAS' broad policy stance has been of a "modest and gradual appreciation" of the Singdollar.

But on Jan 28, it made an unscheduled move to ease monetary policy, the first since July 2005, after Singapore's economic growth sagged in 2014 to its weakest in five years. MAS reduced the slope of its policy band, in effect slowing the pace of the Singdollar's gains versus the currencies of its main trading partners.

In April, at the first of this year's two scheduled meetings, MAS refrained from further action.

The key word here is they are rich, so they are able to use this policy.

Richest man in forbes for what, at the end, bring all his wealth to other country (eg. robert kouk)

aoisky as I have said many times, history don't lie.

Two good things about being a Malaysian:
1) no taxes on foreign income. So invest overseas (don't limit ourself to SG) and earn foreign currency and spend in malaysia as long term wise, RM will slide.
2) no death tax

To further add to those who view MYR in the negative light;

I am echoing / parroting what my Licensed Financial Planner, LFP told me earlier this year. He attended his finance firm's quarterly briefing and his company Chief Investment Officer, CIO told the attendees that MYR weakness is not due to oil price low (it is a contributory factor) but not the ultimate factor because O&G constitute only a small percentage of export for Malaysia nowadays.

He attributed the MYR weakness to:

I) Market perception especially the due to the unending tiga suku AmDeeBee saga. The key word here is " perception ".

II) The unresolved ballooning of external debt to fx reserve. This is not a perception problem , but a real issue.

Item ( II ) is a bigger contributor to the weakening of MYR than depressed oil price.

Xuzen

p/s To further expand on item ( II). Let us say you have RM 1,000.00 in your pocket but you already owe Ah Long RM 2,000.00. Let us say you need to borrow another RM 1,000.00 to fund your lifestyle. Will the Ah Long loan you the money at the old interest rate or at higher interest rate. Now the Ah Long will view you with a different risk rating liao wor....

Because of this risk, your credit worthiness takes a tumble and hence people will not want to take your risk. Your currency which is peg to your worthiness hence takes a tumble.

The above is a very lay-man way of explaining external debt to fx reserve.
*
1) Can 1 change even if replacement happen. Who knows in the future, there toemdeebee
2) This one keep increasing every year.

Avengelice aoisky, your sifu have spoken

NEW YORK: The large-cap technology sector is expected to see a bump in its growth weighting when index provider FTSE Russell completes the annual refresh of its benchmarks next Friday, a move that could lift tech shares targetted in the rejig.

The increased significance of tech comes on the heels of an around 20% gain in the sector this year...

FTSE Russell finalises its annual refresh of its widely-followed indexes on June 23, a move that prompts fund managers to adjust their portfolios to reflect new weightings.

Large-cap tech is expected to see a more than 3% weighting increase in Russell’s growth index, a major benchmark for portfolio managers.

What this means if say Apple at 5% is bump up to 10% on the index, more people will scramble to add apple (think ETF investors + normal retail investor). This will cause apple price to increase (more buyers). Which will lead to increase in NAV for TA global tech.

Hi I'm quite new here, I have a newbie question. There are so many funds out there, how do you guys go about screening/picking the fund to include into the portfolio? (i.e. there can be so many combinations)

Just a little overwhelmed with the amount info that I'm not too sure what to focus on when constructing my own.
*
Yes there are so many combinations.

Step 1
Determine your risk level (there's a questionnaire by FSM)
https://www.fundsupermart.com.my/main/riskP...kProfiling.svdo

Step 2
After getting your risk level, determine how many % of equities and how many % Fixed income (FI)matches your risk profile (FSM will give you a guide). It's just a guide. Up to you want to follow or not

Step 3

Read the fundfactsheet and see where the fund invest. Compare it with it's peer (same region fund). Divide your % of equities to what % fund to buy. You can choose between choosing a balance fund/pure equity.

Step 4
Same with step 3 but for FI (you can go for bonds. I go for reits fund. Although reits is counted as equities, but it's consider pseudo bond as reit manager can increase rental to overcome increase in interest rate while bond is fixed.)

Step 5
Stick to max 6-7 funds. That's more than enough.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alternatively, you can go with Turtle Investor 4 fund combination. (I prefer 5 funds) This blogger invest in ETF which we malaysians don't have access to.
http://www.turtleinvestor.net/asset-allocation/
30% global can be replace with 15% US/Developed countries/tech, 15% Asia pacific
30% in Singpaore STI can be replace with 30% Nikko SG Div/15% Nikko SG, 15% Kenanga Growth Fund (this allocation is for home field advantage)
30% bond etf can be replaced with bond fund
10% reits can be replaced with reits fund.

There you go 4-5 funds combination.

Of course, if you want more boost/oomph (return), add in india/china at a cost of higher volatility
