Update on China ETF

My investments in China ETF has gained about 4% since my taking up position on August 7 this year. Due to the limited capital that I have invested into this counter, together with brokerage expenses, the gains from my first foray into investments has only been a few hundred dollars so far, and again I have to caution myself that there is probably an element of luck in this small profit since I did not research into this ETF extensively before my purchase, other than the fact that Chinese stocks appears to have taken a beating recently and margin for error is lower than last year. In the meantime, I shall continue to monitor the market and find opportunities to take up value positions with the remaining (approx. 70%) of my savings; this is on top of the money set aside for 6 months of my expenditures, so that I do not have to liquidate my positions for bread and butter issues. I am going in for the long term, and  the 6-months fund should provide a measure of mental stability and serve me well in times of market turmoils.
