Should we have switching/cut loss strategy for unit trust investment? Below are some of the switching/cut loss strategies that i can think of:
Strategy 1: set a maximum loss % we can take. If the price dips further than the max loss %, we switch/sell off the fund, irregardless of the time frame we've been holding the fund.
Strategy 2: let's say our investment objective is to get 8% returns p.a. over 3 years period. so over this 3 years period, we dollar cost average our investment $ into the fund. However, upon 3 years time frame, we didn't achieve the objective and thus decide to switch/sell off the fund.
Strategy 3: through rebalancing of our asset allocation annually/half yearly, i.e. sell/switch the fund that performs well, and buy more of non performing fund.
so, which strategy is advisable for those who invest in malaysian unit trust funds? appreciate some feedbacks and comments.....
