Next big  thing 'globally'  -  shortage of food .
pharoah88 ( Date: 22-Jul-2011 13:34) Posted:
Will food prices rise after renovation?
Since the closure of the Eunos wet market for upgrading/renovation, I have been going to Haig Road market, which I notice has been renovated, like the adjoining hawker centre.
But prices there are generally higher than those at the Eunos market and there appear to be fewer stalls selling vegetables and meats. Prices at the hawker stalls are also higher compared to those at the hawker centre at Eunos.
While I am glad the upgrading/renovation of Eunos market will provide a more pleasant marketing environment, I hope that prices will not go up when it opens in the second quarter of next year.
Meanwhile, I also pity the enforced holiday for the hawkers and stall operators until then.
One wonders why the authorities did not use the field next to Eunos MRT Station to set up a temporary wet market.

You 'could have'    used your US$ to buy into gold related....
andreytan ( Date: 16-Jul-2011 21:04) Posted:
 
I hope you don't mind,I think you read too much of these American gold bugs who call for worse case scenario, to buy physical gold. I had read abt them at kitco.com. Most of them are doomsday sayer. 
If that day come, we want to buy food, not gold. Did not they call us to buy gun and bullet as well.
NO..NO...NO...the dollar will not die so fast. just play along and ride the trend, and profit from the gold rise.,it is a BBB game.
if the US dollar become worthless, and gold are denominated in dollar,
does that means your gold is worthless as well. China got 3T of it, Jap got 1T of it. Do u think they want to see their dollar go to zero.
Now if you got US dollar deposit, do you want to see them go to zero.
The dollar status will only diminish to abt 60% of the world reserve.
Just China and Jap alone 4T. they got no mean to sell or dispose all at once without shooting their own feet.
  long the dollar. Open a dollar deposit.

Gold sets record, hits US$1,600
04:45 AM Jul 19, 2011
SINGAPORE - Gold prices reached a record high yesterday, hitting the US$1,600 per ounce mark for the first time.
Prices were pushed up as United States politicians failed to reach an agreement on raising the debt ceiling and amid continued concerns over Europe's sovereign crisis.
And analysts said that the precious metal is likely to see more upside this week as market sentiment remains cautious.
" Investors are increasingly looking to gold as a safe haven as the US dollar, pound sterling and the euro continue to devalue against stronger currencies such as those of Canada, Australia, Norway and Switzerland," Sector Investment Managers chief executive Angelos Damaskos, told Reuters.
A note by Phillip Capital also noted that banks were in the spotlight last Friday as the European banking authorities released widely anticipated stress test results. Eight banks failed a test of their ability to withstand a long recession and would have to raise €$2.5 billion (S$4.28 billion) of capital.
Meanwhile in the US, talks to raise the debt ceiling continued without signs of a compromise with ratings agencies warning of downgrades to the US triple A rating.
" Amidst an environment of uncertainty, gold continues to benefit as a safe haven asset. A sustained breach of US$1,600 could see gold surge higher for the 11th consecutive session," added Phillip Capital.
More bullish, MF Global said in a report yesterday that it sees gold possibly hitting US$1,662 to US$1,680 per ounce.
Already, a steady stream of customers are turning to pawn shops to realise a quick and tidy profit.
ValueMax Bullion, the wholesale gold component of a pawn shop here in Singapore, said it has bought on average 30 per cent more gold in comparison to daily purchases six months ago with some customers even walking in with gold bars.
ValueMax operations manager Yeah Lee Ching added: " It's only when there is a sudden spike in the price that there is a sudden selling off of gold in the market, but a lot of people are still holding back their gold because they believe it will appreciate further."
So far, spot gold prices have risen around 7 per cent.
Sounding a note of caution is Ms Ong Yi Ling, an investment analyst at Phillips Futures, who believes that much depends on how the global economy performs.
" In the event that the US economy starts to recover and interest rates start to increase, I think that could take some of the momentum off some of gold's rally - an increased interest rate increases the opportunity cost of holding gold," she said.
She added that going into next year and beyond, gold could continue to rise but perhaps not at the rapid pace seen in 2010 and 2009 where the price of gold actually rose more than 20 per cent for each year.
According to Standard Chartered, gold prices may soar to as high as US$5,000 an ounce by 2020 on slowing production growth and increasing demand from China and India.
" We are looking for the gold price to reach about US$2,000 by 2014," Mr Yan Chen, Hong Kong-based head of metals and mining for Standard Chartered, told Bloomberg. With agency reports

Is the  " Shoe Box size concept"     derived out of prison cells  ?   
pharoah88 ( Date: 15-Jul-2011 15:04) Posted:
‘Shoebox’ trend a boon for developers and retailers
COMMENTARY
TA N CHIN KEONG
property@mediacorp.com.sg
One quirk of the current recovery in Singapore’s residential property market is the rising popularity of small-sized apartments, better known as “shoebox” units.
Since early 2009, when the current home market up-cycle began, private property developers have sold a number of projects consisting mainly of “shoebox” units. These include The Alexis, which kicked off the “shoebox” trend and Suites@, which probably Guillemardholds the smallest apartment at 258 square feet.
In fact, the percentage of non-landed private residential units with floor space of less than 650 sq ft (our definition of a “shoebox” unit) sold by private property developers has risen from 12 per cent in 2009 to 38 per cent year-to-date in 2011.
We also notice a downsizing trend in public housing over the last few years.
Based on data from the annual reports of the Housing and Development Board, the percentage of smaller flats (four-room and below) sold by the board went up from 46 per cent in the fiscal year ending March 2005 to 67 per cent in the year ending March 2008. This ratio further rose to 83 per cent in the year ending March 2010.
However, this trend is also driven by the rising popularity of four-room flats versus five-room and executive flats.
But it has to be noted that with floor space of around 970 sq ft, four-room flats are not really that small. |
