x 1   x 0  Alert Admin	Same here, I'm also a beginner ! Haha.  I also made a mistake thinking that STI will make a sharp U turn.. it did not... I reckon it wont already.. Thought that Genting would lead the way. Yes i agree with you, dont hold long positions. Let dow go up 300 points or go down 300 points. Doesnt matter. I want to sleep peacefully tonight. I really feel that Genting SP will not break its 1.50 support. Genting already started accumulating their own shares.. I believe that it wont go as deep as you guys think. Anyway goodluck to you. STI did not make a U turn, therefore there will be no profit taking. 2 possibilities. Last minute heavy buy back or STI will just keep it this way  parimas8      ( Date: 19-Aug-2011 13:30) Posted: Hi senior jw... pls dont mention, i m also a beginner trying to learn from the market. i myself made a silly mistake this morning going in at 0.580 thinkin' its tanked bottom and hopin' to get out at 0.595 for lil' small  treat to bring my family for dim sum this sunday, but alas if i trully have a " celestial" chart i would've waited and entered at 1.560 aye!!!!!  anyway its friday and i've stop loss at 0.570... i  dont wanna hold long positions over this turnultous weekend, wont know whats gonna happen.. it could be that suddenly some french banks (suck-jen, credit agogo, etc) might be trully frenched-fried this weekend.  dont say it wont happen.    unless you have the real " celestial" charts!!!!  HAHAHAAHH!!!! JUNWEI9756      ( Date: 19-Aug-2011 13:20) Posted: The reason for me buying is because i see genting berhad accumulating their own shares. Its okay to dip a little bit down more. I have already set a stop loss. Its okay not to buy at the lowest... So long as this counter make an U turn ASAP.   Thank you for your advice   !

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	sorry to tell u. no rebound tonight. JUNWEI9756      ( Date: 19-Aug-2011 13:24) Posted: If you guys realize, STI doesn't fluctuate a lot during trading hours this few days... It stays there and does not move much... More or less today's closing is around there. i think there will be a strong rebound in the U.S tonight.. Volume will be slashed. Europe's opening later will not affect Asia...

If a bank is strong, does it even need to borrow? HAHAHAHAAHAH!!!! andreytan      ( Date: 19-Aug-2011 12:21) Posted: This round is unlike the last one, The last one i almost vomit, i q low, and got it very fast and it go lower before the latest rebounce allow me some profit, which is still on paper. today, u may not believe, look at the vol, like those want tosell already sell and greedy buyer like me, wait long long. but still got some. I still believe a rally coming , so i buy on dip. recession is assume by the mkt , so they run for cover, likewise later they will run back, where can they run. gold???too high and volitale...bond..too safe pay next to nothing...then they will come charging back in. are u ready for them to come back.??i am waiting.  BE GREEDY WHEN OTHER FEAR, AND FEAR WHEN OTHER ARE GREEDY. dont base on assume, just becos a bank borrow 500m..one bank out of thousand of bank???what nonsense. just ask how many bank in the US fail mth to mth...worth more than 500m...and this one just borrow, it is not going bankrupt.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	You are really good at investing... Thorough research before investing in a company is a good thing. More to learn from you. But i doubt they will tell you anything. Hyflux charges are too high.. They would rather choose other company. Same thing as Sembmarine and KeppelCorp.. Quality service but price cannot make it.  RachelG      ( Date: 19-Aug-2011 10:16) Posted: I just emailed Coca cola and claimed to be a China environmentalist. Asked them how they intend to secure water supply for their 4 billion investment. Hopefully they will tell me more. China got water shortage leh. I will go screen through all water recycling companies on HSI and SHI. Hyflux is not s-chip. China government quite protective of their companies dun think will allow hyflux into big project.
