Hi mo meng, actually I've been waiting since 2007 to invest, so I have my investing capital put in monthly FD. I've only put in 45% of capital set aside purely for investing. I'm still deciding if I should pump all 100% into KLSE, or put aside half of the remaining into funds in China (maybe better to depend on experts to invest on my behalf? What do you think?). Is that back up funds?

That does not include money to survive in case of rainy days - which means I'll still be ok if I have no income whatsoever for 8 months or less incase or emergencies. This I will not use for investing.

p/s Hehe, I don't mind my money incesting among each other. As long as they procreate! Hehehe, pardon the pun.

Added on December 19, 2008, 2:00 pmI think that's a good strategy, safer approach. But I headache have to check so many stock prices. Do you guys think that 6-8 counters too little? For long term?

My theory is this:-

I'm learning as much as possible by investing as many coutner as possible. Now i already get the grip, i will reduce shareholding in several stocks

provided u hv the fund to do so .. it is a good approach to learn

I started off rather alike too. Bought some lemons, am i glad i got rid of them! My lemons raised a whopping 0.05 cents in yesterday's rally! And is now structuring my portfolio for a better balance.

Dividend stocks, goreng stocks, mid term 1-2 years, long term 2 years++
Carlsberg, scomi, resorts, mmc

I'd don't like to spread it too thin among too many counters. Hard to capitalize on mini rallys in such ways.

6-8 counters are considered OK and norm already. You want quality not quantity.

Over-diversified will mean more headache, want broad diversification can go for ETF, much simpler choice.

bank negara contemplating on another rate cuts to follow American cut?

I only have 4 counters wor...hehehe.....ya...as wat Cherroy mentioned....i really cant monitor too much..later really tension n headache.... most of the time...i'm just buying to outperform FD rate la....
