Hmm, interesting article. I didn’t think about doing dollar cost averaging using the harmonic mean.

DCA is NOT the magic formula. It must be works hand-in-hand with proper Asset Allocation in order to archieve optimum return.

Say the stock market is already high for no reason, are you still using DCA to buy more equit-related unit?

If market is suffer distress and most stock price falls, are you still using DCA to buy into income-related unit?

similar. Capital Gain (CG) contributes to the increase in Nett Asset Value in both.

Distribution tak increase NAV in variable-priced UT (lain la dgn fixed-priced UT macam ASB, coz ASB hanya bergantung pada dividend (bukan CG).

if UT doesnt have distribution, price akan jadi RM30 seunit. nampak mahal, sebenarnya tidak.

different, gold – commodity. UT – collection/pool of money to invest eithjer in equity, bond, money mkt, REIT and what have you.

advantages/disadvantages: panjang cerita, it depends on.. your investment objective – apa sebenarnya lu mau. “invest in gold” mmg didengar lebih glamour but thats not the case here.

Hi Irwan,
I’m glad you’re back to write about investment. I guess it must be typo-error. It is ‘Dollar Cost Averaging’.

gold investment and UT share the same concept of investment (return generate from the price gain)..the different is gold investment doesnt hv dividend/distribution. so it doesnt giv u annual income as UT did.

how return been generate:
gold investment
1. capital growth (price gain)

Unit trust (UT)
1. capital growth (price gain)
2. dividend/distribution
