Ok ok. 

1.  Massive shortselling is advocated to produce good business and you can do it unlimited with borrowed shares.  Who can stand massive shorts, put up his hands? So investors are at the mercy of giant shortists, tell me it is not frightening to smart investors.

Aiyo, no point talking too much.

S-Chips and Penny stocks are not as 'hot' as before - by which I mean in 2006-2007 where there were so many buy calls led by soaring prices.
But as reality unfolds: many such counters come out with poor / limited earnings, as well as reports on financial manipulations. When the economy is in trying times, it doesn't make things better. Also, with tighter risk management and regulations, investment bodies will no doubt want to put their money where the transparency and solid earnings is.

However, I won't discount some really good penny counters. It's not difficult to spot.
As for the dubious ones, it's going to take a long time for confidence to be restored for many of such S-Chip and Penny counters.

If STI keep going up... our salted fish will comes alive as people will find Blue expensive liao.. maybe now is the time to accumulate ??

Lack of adventurous spirit, true.  Our ancestors are traditionally timid people and pass this gene to us?  Haha.

We like good people, but we hate to be good people.
