Bought into these funds about 2 months ago through RaboDirect (a great website I have to say). In particular the former fund has lost about 20% in that that time. Questions is:-
i. Why is New Enerdy fund taking such a hammering.
ii. Why is Global Natural Resources down when the price of oil and gold is rallying.
iii. Would you cut the loss now if you were in my position and would you ride it out.
 

yep, I say hang in there. These investments are not for the jittery. I'm also invested in New Energy, Gold, Emerging Markets and I'm in for the long haul...
 
I'd say stay in there too - might be a good time to invest now as the Fund price is almost equivalent to its launch price!
 
Not in either of those funds but in 4 other Rabo funds, as you say a great site. I invest regularly in these funds and am down about 15% on my investment. I would not cut my loss, when going into these funds it should be for 5/7 years to get a decent return so I would not sell now.
