Will singapore follow suit?

Haha ..... saw this and not sure what to make of it 
" Thanks to the Dodd-Frank Act, over the counter trading of gold and silver is going to be illegal
starting on July 15th.  Or at least that is what some companies
apparently now believe.  The following is an excerpt from an email that
Forex.com recently sent out to their customers....
Important Account Notice Re: Metals Trading
We wanted to make you aware of some upcoming changes to
FOREX.com’s product offering. As a result of the Dodd-Frank Act enacted
by US Congress, a new regulation prohibiting US residents from trading
over the counter precious metals, including gold and silver, will go
into effect on Friday, July 15, 2011.
In conjunction with this new regulation, FOREX.com must
discontinue metals trading for US residents on Friday, July 15, 2011 at
the close of trading at 5pm ET. As a result, all open metals positions
must be closed by July 15, 2011 at 5pm ET.
We encourage you to wind down your trading activity in these
products over the next month in anticipation of the new rule, as any
open XAU or XAG positions that remain open prior to July 15, 2011 at
approximately 5:00 pm ET will be automatically liquidated.
We sincerely regret any inconvenience complying with the new
U.S. regulation may cause you. Should you have any questions, please
feel free to contact our customer service team.
Sincerely,
The Team at FOREX.com
Apparently, Section 742(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act prohibits anyone
" from entering into, or offering to enter into, a transaction in any
commodity with a person that is not an eligible contract participant or
an eligible commercial entity, on a leveraged or margined basis."
So what impact is this going to have on the gold and silver markets?
Nobody is quite sure yet."

This is a serious social problem. Those cases
  reported are because they are missing. Definitely
      there are equally sad cases where the persons are
            not missing, but nevertheless the families suffer much.
                  Such is the effect of casinos only a stone's throw away...

60 wives (mostly from above average households)   lodged report on " missing husbands" cos husbands went Casino and owed money , dared not come back home..  SAD!  wives waiting to make babies,  honey not here.
These husbands should have put money 50% into stocks and they might not lose so much.

6/6 Window checking day |
Have you checked your windows lately? I have. And on top of that I am also going to clean the windows too as month end approaches.
Window dressing candidates? Will the following worst performing STI component stocks (source: Bloomberg) see window dressing as 2Q11 come to an end?
If there's window dressing on the worst performers, our chartist's top BUY picks amongst the 10 stocks are:
CapitaLand (CAPL SP S$2.87) The stock has been falling within its downtrend channel since hitting a high of S$4.23. Both its MACD and RSI are moving out of an oversold position, possibly suggesting that there could be a strong rebound ahead. As prices are in a steep downtrend, only aggressive traders should jump in to buy. Risk management should be placed below the recent low of S$2.75 or below the downtrend channel support at S$2.68. If this is indeed a strong rebound, prices are likely to rise towards S$3.04 and S$3.18 next. Only a breakout above S$3.18 would signal that the trend has changed.  
City Developments (CIT SP S$10.24) Despite prices taking out the March low, we see a possible rebound taking place here. The MACD is slowly flattening out, forming a potential bullish divergence signal while its RSI has hooked upwards from an oversold position. Prices could potentially fall below the S$10.00 but would likely be weak. If prices can stay above the support trend line at S$9.95 then it is likely to retest S$11.34 and S$11.96 on its next leg higher. Anything above S$10.82 would likely confirm that the rebound is taking place.
Fraser & Neave (FNN SP S$5.61) The stock appears to be trading in a lower to sideways manner, potentially forming a triangle. Both its momentum indicators appear to be flattening out, possibly suggesting that the selling could be slowing down. The stock is likely to remain in a triangle pattern as long as prices remain above S$5.25. Minor support is the recent swing low at S$5.45. Investors can accumulate on weakness and if prices push past the S$5.78 levels, then prices have a good chance of testing S$6.13 and S$6.35 on the next upswing.

The amount of money waiting to be ploughed
    into the market can be staggering. That will
          cause a reversal too good to be missed.
                    well, hopefully anyway... no one can tell...

Greece Debt crisis have been in the market for more than a year. The market still react extensively to it though bail out plan have been announced and announced... Look at the performance of Genting SP, I opined that it will rise further as its RWS is doing well and more and more new facitlities will be opening soon... Greece is just a mini prawn in the world. Market reacted strongly to it just bcoz they are Euro member. Else, no one bother whether they are bankcrupt or survive... |

Fire up your stamina
If you’re in a relationship, have plenty of sex.
Not only will it bring you closer together and has many health benefits, but it is an enjoyable way to help increase your basis.
With increased endurance, you’ll be able to work harder in the sack and with more sex you’ll increase your stamina.
It’s a win-win situation.

xiao bo??  why wanna hv wifi on public transport?
eyes to see    funny people ......and take picture and put on Stomp,  no time to serve internet lar......
pharoah88 ( Date: 23-Jun-2011 12:51) Posted:
Why no Wi-Fi on public transport ?
In an era where monumental focus is placed on connectivity, our trains place pretty far down the rungs of technological innovation. Trains, stations and buses have yet to offer wireless Internet access for commuters.
The average Singaporean spends about 2.5 hours commuting via public transport every day. These hours could either be squandered away or enriched with live feeds of news and information. Providing Wi-Fi on public transport would cater to those unable to afford mobile data plans.
San Francisco’s Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) has plans to establish Wi-Fi services throughout its 167.4km of track and 43 BART stations by the end of this year.
The London Underground is seeking to have Wi-Fi installed at 120 stations by next year’s Olympics.
Korea’s telecom giant KT Corp has provided Wi-Fi services in Seoul subway trains since last November to meet the demands of data-hungry smartphone users.
By ensuring that Singaporeans have more opportunities to access the Internet, we enrich our society with citizens who possess accurate and current information.

i no fear

Do you mean with fear, you can buy?
  But no one knows when the trend will end.
        So when there's fear, it can also mean
        that there may be more fear at a later stage...

NATIONAL Development Minister Khaw Boon Wan's frequent blog postings about the property market are making some developers jittery, with one even branding the comments as 'scary'.
Property players say Mr Khaw's online musings - which are coming at a rate of up to four updates a week - blur the line between personal opinion and official policy.
Read the full story in Wednesday's edition of The Straits Times.

Former DPM Tony Tan picks up forms
 
 
 
Former Deputy Prime Minister Tony Tan has picked up forms for the Certificate of Eligibility required to contest the upcoming Presidential Election. 
Dr Tan who's 71 arrived at the Elections Department at 10.30 this morning. 
He told reporters that if he's granted the certificate of eligibility, he will contest the Presidential Election as an independent candidate. 
Dr Tan is currently the Chairman of Singapore Press Holdings as well as deputy chairman and executive director of GIC - the Government of Singapore Investment Corporation. 
A former mathematics and physics lecturer at the University of Singapore, Dr Tan entered politics in 1979 at the age of 38. 
He left the Cabinet between 1991 and 1995, became chairman and CEO of OCBC Bank, before returning to the Cabinet to beef up its ranks in August 1995.
Dr Tan retired from politics after 26 years, having helmed the ministries of finance, education, defence, health, and trade and industry at different points in his career. 
Earlier this month, Dr Tan said that the next elected President of Singapore will hold office during a period of enormous change. 
He was responding to media queries as to whether he would be making a bid for the position in the coming election. 
While neither confirming nor denying a bid at that time, Dr Tan said that it is more important than ever to have a President with a steady hand and a deep understanding of the complexities behind each decision he may have to make.

You are right, Sir...
    This stocks is hugely exposed to China.
          And the fear of a property bubble is quite
                    a worrying factor...
