Investment Portfolio



An investment portfolio is a very good concept for Investor.

It's useful for retail Investor as well.

Just set aside your investment fund into a separate bank accounts, use it only for investment purposes.
eg invest in shares, unit trust, or FD.

It's your portfolio consist of CASH, FD, SHARES & UNIT TRUST (IF ANY).

In good time when you are bullish, you can increase your shares holding to 75%, cash 25%
When you see the market overbought & overprice, then you reduce it to 50% shares & 50% Cash.
When market depressed & you foresee a tsunami coming, you will exit the market and reduce the shares to 25% and CASH 75%.

You must treat your Investment as a Portfolio, then only you know where you stand, under invested, over-invested or all 'sleeping' in bank accounts.

In this bearish market, while we all waiting for the 2
nd tsunami & market facing with many uncertainties, a smart & success investor like 'Samgoss'(www.samgang.blogspot.com) is only maintaining a 15% shares 85% Cash Portfolio.

If market being sell down, the good fundamental stock drop to attractive valuation (low PE) level, prolong bear market offer us a good opportunity to pick up good stock, then I believe most of the 'prepared' investor will increase their shares Vs Cash ratio.

Hi ! Chen,
Financial knowledge is important in our life cos we all need money to live.

It's unfortunate our govt do not introduce this subject in our education system.
