This song always evokes memories from my childhood even though I wasn't even alive when this song came out. California Dreaming is another song that does that.

If I may ask how old are you and are you looking at purely just Stocks? Btw, that website was painful to go through but I think you got your answer just on the hedging. 49.

I'm guessing Vanguard or other major fund managers are not available in NZ? The funds you listed seem to have quite low fees (0.15%) for a global fund :thumbup: though they don't seem to provide much detail on asset allocation. We get Vanguard via NZ platforms. I invest in two of their ETFs, US and...

The PDS indicates that they only hedge 65% of the portfolio value This implies 35% is floating Which means your portfolio absorbs that volatility via the FX risk Worth noting that with the unhedged fund you absorb 100% of the risk, so the overall risk is higher to you, that way, but not their fund ...

It wasn't very helpful for my question, but my quick read brought back memories of my days studying statistics / quantitative analysis. I should have a better sleep shortly.

FX is famously volatile. No hedge is both perfect and low-cost Hence, more risky I still don't understand the difference in risk, and how an unhedged fund is less risky / volatile. As Pole says, without seeing the detail… It is unlikely the hedge is perfect. It’ll have limitations Even if it is ‘fu...

I have a question for the investment experts. I'm looking at investing in a mutual fund of international global shares. I'm considering two different mutual funds, with the only material difference between the two funds being that one is hedged (to the NZ currency) and the other is unhedged. What I ...

I studied that quite a lot, Tehui. Lost 2 brothers to workplace injuries and got quite into Health and Safety about 25 years ago. Turns out it really is a con in all but the most dire of cases.

Hurricanes deserve to be betting favourites. This will be a pivotal game for the Hurricanes, as the Chiefs are a good side. The backs might get all the glory, but I'm looking forward to seeing the battle up front.

I know relatively little about Health and Safety Legislation and practice (I've never worked in the agriculture, construction and transport sectors before), but 70+ workplace deaths a year in NZ is a staggering amount.

Looking forward to the new cycleway along Wellington harbour as that'll make the cycle from Lower Hutt to Wellington much more pleasant. The reporting on that has pissed me off big time.

It is what Key did as well.

And what would be the likely position of Winston Peters on such a sale?

Or is it just your inner Daryl Kerrigan?
Record sales, eh? It’s an interesting question but I don’t think record sales is meaningful.
So what is?

It's all about the amount of likes you get.
