so what is your tg for sti, say 2012 and beyond, i think let me put on my helmet first before i tell you the figure, becos ppl will knock my head .  for a start, begin with me ....sti 1200. but we will see 3000 again , right. but i believe even if it is there at sti 3000, alot of ppl here will still hardly break even, becos they did not cut fast.

poor economic data and roll over selling and fund redemption. look at the vol, if we see vol get thinner, that means selling is going to end, give it another 2 days. unexpected, lose money today. good luck all.

cut loss or hold?

My advise is take this rally which we will have till end of yr to clear off the mkt. Next year will be a yr of reckoning. I read elsewhere , alot of loan to recall for Spain and Itally, and with economy down,, 2 H global indicater are heading down, they got no means to pay and ECB and IMF combine also cannot save them.  and on top of this, the top 3 financial institution in the US got large exposure to bank in Euro, dies dies, must dies . i believe even our bank here also got exposure, but a question of how large..we don't know.  |

i will highlight for your benefit.     In tough times it is always appropriate to go back to Kipling’s immortal poem “IF”. The market sold off sharply and crashed through a variety of support levels last week. The downgrade of the credit rating on U.S. debt Friday after the close has led to more selling today. At some point this day it will be official we’ll be in a bear market. Bear markets are officially hit when the major indexes pullback 20%. If it does or does not officially happen, have no doubt we    arein a bear market. With 8% of stocks in the S& P 500 technically sound it is clearly tough to make money on the long side. Hopefully, you have lightened up on equities as these readings I give each week have deteriorated. Remember, better than 80% of the stocks in the S& P 500 were sound technically earlier in the year.  With 8% of S& P stocks and 9% of stocks  sound technically some may argue there are some good buying opportunities. This is the lowest level for these readings since March 2009. The absolute low for the readings were 1% for the S& P and 2% for the broader markets in October 2009. Do not attempt to be a hero here. The market is attempting to find a bottom. But, we are certainly in unchartered territory. The downgrade of US debt to AA+ from AAA is obviously a new twist to deal with. In a strong market you would normally use all pullbacks to add to strong stocks. In an awful market you would trim names on rallies. The market bottoming process is just that, a process. It takes a few months for the market to bottom. If you have raised cash this pullback has been painful, but manageable.  Now do not throw the benefits of your discipline away trying to jump in and call a bottom.  I believe there will be snap back rallies. If you want to gain exposure to those rallies by adding to equity exposure I believe you shouldn’t turn those trades into investments. If you trade for a bounce and it comes you should probably take your profits and wait for a more stable market to invest capital. Discipline – Training to act in accordance with rules.good luck   u read those in blues.... first, the mkt have yet to find a bottom, it take some months second, don't make long term investement, be it blues chip or whatever, in a bear, as u witness last wk , even the blue of blues also become blue black.   Don't listen to anyone saying, you hold index stock , never mind leave it, it will come back. do you know those who bought high way back are still sitting on losses till this day. wait, wait, wait till next yr, i will call you when mkt is truthly bottom, provided i am still ard,  |

Just ask yourself this.." is the problem solve???You have virtually the whole world in trouble, u tell me where do not have trouble? Japan( still struggling with post earthquake, radiation), China ( after so many tightening still got high inflation, tightening did not work but created more problem by increasing unemployment), ME ( u read recently abt Syria, but it is not a new problem, ME problem are still there except it is overshadow by Euro and US problem. And of course you have Euro and US, both are debt related. Euro debt, just a matter of time they will default, and Spain will go down first, too big to save. They got no means to pay . something like call you to take pay cut of 20% and the GST increase 20%..a good comparison, u think u can take it, harsh austerity measure. do u think ang mo can take these suffering, riot my friend, riot and chaos in the days ahead. Austerity cannot work , wait for default. You tell me how to be bullish with so many problems ard the globe. my opinion...which i read. and paste here for your decision making..     In tough times it is always appropriate to go back to Kipling’s immortal poem “IF”.

This was taken from CNBC, since 1950, there are 15 ,... 6% drop, and if u see chart, that means after one month it recover only ave 2.43% in another word, the s& p did not recover back the 6 % it lost. so this is to tell you that the recovery is a journey on as long way down. so be careful...still sell to strength, hope this rally is mere correction on the way down for us to profit and get out for good, when next yr hell come over.     ![]() |

Yes, most of us will be around, But some of your favourite stock may disappear for good. Today, we are save by our forefather who declare today as national day. Otherwise ,easily another 4% down, thansk to LKY for today. He indirectly save us from further losses. so come tomolo, after Ben speak and these technical rebounce may see sti soar, but game not over for sure, ppl will be suing this to get out. |
