Invest in large, well diversified fund

Dear Mr Tan

I like the commentary in the "investment tips, April". I have investments in an emerging market fund and global internet fund. Is it a good time to sell them?

MY REPLY

I am not familiar with the two funds that you have invested. I am not able to comment on them.

My general comments are:

* emerging stock market are now at a high level
* small markets (including Singapore) are subject to high volatility and outflow of foreign funds
* generally, I prefer to invest in large, well diversified, low cost funds (e.g. global equity) and to keep invested for the long term.
