If you believe that XXX fund is so great, you should also buy shares in the fund management company or whatever listed company owns the fund management company since they'll also make money when their fund does well.

Not expecting much from sti for the time being. Unless Jpy will weaken more to 103, it's time to buy again then

Thai is cutting their interest rate. Probably to weaken their currency and save their export competitiveness. I actually prefer indonesia market because their own domestic demand able to support its growth

0204 GMT [Dow Jones] Singapore''s STI declines 1.1% to 3331.82 in the first hour of trade on Thursday in line with declines by regional peers and the Nikkei. The usual concerns cited by market players is the withdrawal of quantitative easing by the U.S. Federal Reserve by the end of the year, Joshua Tan, Head of Research at Philip Capital writes in a note. "Our view is that such a withdrawal may provoke a selloff, but is also a signal that the U.S. economy is actually strong enough to stand on its own - in such a case, a selloff may eventually give way to significant buying back in," he says, and advises his clients to buy whenever there''s a significant correction. On Thursday, Global Logistic Properties (MC0.SG) leads the losers on the STI, falling 3.5% to S$2.75. United Overseas Bank (U11.SG) is down 1.9% at S$20.87.

By the way, does the fund manager plays a crucial role in how well the UT does?

And I heard some fund houses will promote the funds, based on how popular/famous the fund manager is..

Visit jakarta, Bandung and Medan. Go the shop houses and ask them how they feel about the economy. Ask them how sales have been for the past couple of months. From there, decide if it's a buy or no buy. That's what I did
Edit:But I can't guarantee what the future holds
