I've make some good and bad trades. The worst is probably NAIM, where I held on to the stock following the advice from a Technical analyst who was betting it for the Sarawak election play last year. Eventually that proved to be a bad decision.

che bob, there are thousands of economists in the world. 50% say one thing and the other 50% the opposite. Nobody can predict the macroeconomic situation right consistently. There are too many variables. Read the following link.

kltrader, that was my comment on one of the threads. I re post here because I thought you put too much money as cash. Afraid of the general election? Europe financial crisis? The US fiscal cliff? That also apply to a lot of unit trust funds, even the legendary TTB's handling of icap for the last few months, or even a year. Hence I think if you place too much money as cash, you may miss some major rallies and your portfolio may under-perform. In general if one hold too much cash for one year, the cash holding probably would under-perform by about 7-8% a year, being the difference of return from equity and cash.
