Buy bank counters. you can't go wrong. CIMB got bashed very hard today, maybe can scoop some. BIMB also good counter.

counters are those company listed in the KLSE.

bank counters = CIMB, Maybank, Affin Bank, AmBank, Bank Islam, Public Bank, RHB etc.....

instead of buying unit trust, might as well you equip yourself with knowledge about stock market. Learn the fundamental (for stock picking) as well as technical (for timing). the best investment is investing in yourself with knowledge.

i don't really get your point. what are you trying to get with the 3000 that you have? what kind of return you expect per year? what kind of risk you willing to take? those are things that only you can answer, in order select which investment tools that suits


banks are usually a relatively safe bet for investors as they are highly regulated. stable banks like Maybank and CIMB usually offer you dividend around 5-6% p.a. that is better than any FD. buy at low price, and you will also have opportunities for capital gain. This is the kind of thing that blue chip counters have to offer you. Relatively low risk, and stable dividend with opportunity for capital gain.
