QUOTE(cherroy @ May 28 2008, 11:26 AM) Got park some temporary fund/FD into Forex FD since last year 1Q. Last few months also put some more into them. I experience the pain seeing RM depreciated from USD2.50 to 4.10 during 1997-1998. So personally see the importance the diversification of FD. Also AUD and NZD yield 7-8% which is significantly higher than 3.7% of RM. In long run, it might mean a lot. I don't see RM can be very strong currency either in the long run with gov deficit keep on growing, at least for current economy condition. Yes, it can appreciate against USD, but not against others major currency. Just my personal preference/view. ohhhh, something new for me. thanks for sharing  QUOTE(AdamG1981 @ May 28 2008, 11:27 AM) No, the RM is plunging due to the uncertainty of the economy. But many foreign funds will offload their malaysian equity investments for more lucrative market such as commodities and other emerging economies. ermmm noted that.

is it time to enter IOIcorp now ? Since no negative news for the company, i think the downtrend is caused by the bearish market .

You can get away with the commission charge through DCI investment. Putting Rm100K into AUD, can mean extra 3-4k pa. aka extra RM300 pocket money per month already. But yes, you are exposed to currency risk. So by no mean it is risk free. Just sharing information and personal opinion.

I won't suggest to buy just yet. Wait for a further drop in blue chips counter before going in. It's still early.

The thing for now is it's no longer about the price but the timing... Where do you guys think would be the next resistance level for KLCI?

Just sharing information and personal opinion. I am looking forward for RAB to increase IR by another 0.5 basis points, or 2 more IR increase. SO, buying the aussie dollar now and hold till the end of this year will earn a much better rate of return compare to buying equities in Malaysia. Just my 2 cents.

Based on latest currency rates i got from HL Bank and Public Bank, you can get around 7.2% per annum. So for RM100k investment, that would be roughly around RM7k after minus admin charges...

Yeah, I think the RBA may hold or increase, whereas the RBNZ could decrease the rate, so beware of the NZD. Though the Aussie exchange rate may already have the expectations built in.

Question: If i put rm10k into NZD FD today @ 8.2% per annum for 12 months and next month Central Bank of NZ decrease the rate, I would not be affected, right?
