if tomolo, Ben did nothing, then mkt may come down hard for one to two session only, becos by leaving rate close to zero, it a form of QE, and end year, fund will chase stock, becos they want bonus, But i dont think Ben will do nothing, becos all data are borderline, one more big shock to stock will see US back to recession, and all his QE trillion dollar effort gone down the rain. He got to have some add on to the current plan..to give the economy a boost. |

teeth53 thot: Look likely a positive signal from Werren buffett's betting. Warren Buffett's $5 billion bet on BofA - August 25, 2011: 9:49 AM ET NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- U.S. stocks opened higher Thursday, as Warren Buffett's $5 billion bet on battered shares of Bank of America lifted investor sentiment. The Dow Jones industrial average (INDU) rose 80 points, or 0.7%, and the S& P 500 (SPX) climbed 13 points, or 1.1%. Bank of America's (BAC, Fortune 500) stock rallied 24%, making in the biggest gainer on both indexes. Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (BRKA, Fortune 500) announced a $5 billion investment in preferred shares of Bank of America Thursday morning. The news was a welcome surprise, as shares of Bank of America have been hammered recently, down roughly 40% over the past month. |

Woohoo annual standard report by US on China Complete Chinese War Preparedness And Military UpdateNow that Keynesianism has failed (repeatedly and miserably, although certainly not during wartime - during those times it is curiously successful at 'stimulating'), and only those willfully blind refuse to see how this extended slow-motion collapse ends, below we present the latest, 2011 Edition, of the Annual report to Congress revealing " Military and Security Developments Involving the People's Republic of China" or, in short, everything that one needs to know to defend from and/or attack the world's most populous nation. And for those with insomnia, the full report: 2011 Cmpr Final http://www.zerohedge.com/news/complete-chinese-war-preparedness-and-military-update Got to love the timing of these reports.......

I still think, one major obstacle is cut loss, or stop loss. it is always painful. But imagine if you have cut at the first instance of this crash, today, you dont lose much as compare to those who did not cut. Those who cut early i estimate lose 10 to 15%, but those who didn't, i think they are some 25 to 30% down, But if you do it often(stop loss), u came to know that it work, most of the time. just like, u learn martial art, i practise karate before...u chop tiles the first time, it is very painful , but if you keep at it, then susequently u dont feel less pain , and u really can break tiles. just do it, stop at whatever u can afford to loss, there are no fix % cut loss, no doubt expert say 8%. say now i m willing to lose $200 on this trade, for a shr px of 1.05....i cut at 1.0 ...so i will only buy 4 lots...if u can afford bigger losses then you can buy more lots. and when to take profit??? ppl always ask what tg px to take profit in this forum, very common post. In reality, no one know what px, just base on chart forcast...include me...but if 60 to 70% sure, i make my move. my method is set trailing stop, if i am happy to lose 3c profit, then if the stock is down 3c, i am out, i lock in the profit., if it go up after that, i will not chase. but ppl alway say, once i sold the stock go higher, or once i sold the stock go back up, i really loss money. patient is the word, there are always opportunity in the mkt, wait again for a favourable enter point. practising mechanical sell and stop, is to unto protection for your profit and capital. good luck to all....hope a big rally for us to profit in whatever manner.

The problem is those who do the " mau" ing are not prepared to lose a lot because they are confident in the first place. If they are not confident, would they have " mau" ed in the first place? Thus, the problem lies not with the market, but with he confidence...... lol...

In reality, people want to make a killing in stocks... When they see people trade for small profits, they will laugh... This makes the traders very " malu" , because those people will always think that the small traders cannot afford to " mau" . It is similar to the small car/big car syndrome...

Hahaha Ah Ben 's Fed is only limited by Ah Ben reflexes from his eye to brain to finger on the keyboard........ BERNANKE It's not tax money. the banks have-- accounts with the Fed, much the same way that you have an account in a commercial bank. So, to lend to a bank, we simply use the computer to mark up the size of the account that they have with the Fed. can wait to see the Bear bear family behind Ah Ben come this Friday at Jackson Hole ..... Angmo Hell level 11 to 16 very fun lor .... Cheer

The markets is very messy with all kind of stimulus.... Time for the explosion to reset everything to where it begin.... It will be painful, but it is the healthy after that.... |

This is important lesson.... Never overexpose in trade at one time no matter how confident you are... Or else you can lost more than you can win.... Consistency....
