1. If the prices of fund drop, do I lose the money and do I need to keep pumping money whenever the prices of a unit trust drop? + if the NAV drops, the value of yr units drop
Thus, of course U lose $ (on paper which is as good as reality if redeemed at that point)
+No, U do not NEED to keep pumping in $ whenever the prices of a unit trus drop.
Who told U so? It's totally up to U.
Some ppl do that to do value averaging down. However, note that while they value average down, that unit trust MAY not go back up

.
Think of it like this:
a. if that unit trust invested in Enron & WorldComm only.
b. The prices of Enron & WorldComm dropped tremendously, thus the Unit trust invested in them falls as well.
c. U average down the Unit trust and keep buying as it falls
d. The prices of Enron & WorldComm becomes $0
e. The Unit trust NAV becomes $0
f. Congratulations

- no cost Unit trust
Note: Having stated thus, i myself do periodic programmed value averaging (not just averaging down) in specific mutual funds for at least 3 years "program" per fund, based on Asset Allocation and filtered mutual funds for total returns (i want the volatility, thus focused on total returns) for 3, 5 and 10 yrs stats.
2. Why is it money will not lose even the prices of unit trust drop?+Who said so? This universe or the next ar? Or U talking about those artificial unit trust by the Government, specially for certain segments of the rakyat?
If there is such an animal, please share the details and statistics. 0% of losing $ + unlimited % of upside = perfect, if there is such an animal

icic, so basically i invest 1k and if the unit trust price drop, i will lose few cents there. same like shares but the risk of losing money is not severe as in stock market?
