On the whole, seems nobody is too pessimistic on this plunge, but of course there are others who plans to short. After this weekend's discussion, wonder if they change their mind. I will not short because now is still an uptrend market, anytime those on the sideline who are "cash rich" is preparing to come in when market turns up. I did short for 2 days when SGX break $7.50 last week because that is a very strong support broken down and news on Korean war created panic, even those BBs throw off their holdings. However, these few days situation change to the upside and think shorting now is a risk and SGX is going back to the territory it belongs. ![]() For those position bought last week, will wait & see the reaction of the market tomorrow. Maybe wait till closing and see if close back high again to decide. So far if compare Dow Jones & STI, we are still stronger, actually preparing to cheong anytime. Of course, if Dow Jones continues to drop again, we may have to take precautions. ![]() |

How I wish u all can be right but i am not taking chances. You see all of you here are all LONG, and actually worried. No shorties are joining, means they are not worried. I am not going to short but will sell off half of my holdings to be on the safe side because if tmorrow Dow Jones continues, it will be diasater. |

If u can defeat Brokers tmr... U might stand a chance 2 fight wif BBs / Investments Co. pple there...
But my advice's, dun "kena gun" (in Hokkien). Cos even my neighbour oso 1 2 sell shorts tmr. I oredi asked them not 2 but... Tmr alot of pple might loss monies by selling shorts. ('',)

Every time one loses 50% of one's capital in the stock market, one needs to make 100% in order to just break even ... Many do not think much about this fact. Hence this is precisely why too many people average down when they have lost... ![]() |

Less is more ... Happy to this post from Bon. FD? Cash is king only at opportune times. Otherwise we invest in asset class to hedge against inflations ...

Yes, u r rite... Usually Blue Chips Counters'll recvr 1st later dan by Mid & Small Caps Counters...
I think tis cming Mon'll v v bad. Cos alot of pple'll sell shorts. But think again... Who'll set buying on Mon??? Ask urself??? If u r BBs / fm Investment Co. wat wld u do 2 make monies??? Let me tell u, BBs & Investment Co.'ll set buy... U sell shorts, he sell shorts. Everybody here starting 2 sell shorts. Wat wld u think'll happen??? Muz rmbr, BBs & Investment Co. r well trained. My advice's, dun do anything 1st... Especially those Counters in Top Vol. & u'll c alot of fake Sell / Buy Q... ('',)

hrm.. i thought mid & small caps usually move towards the later phase of a bull ? anyway... with the news that ppl in US are choosing to default on their mortgage payment for their living expenses... how badly do you think this will affect the financials? another round of write downs? |

How can one compare fixed deposit with stocks? For stocks, one can lose 50% or more (eg, $100,000 becomes 50,000) in 3 months! Whereas such losses are not known in fixed deposits which in the worst case you get 0% interest, but your principal remains intact... ![]() |

If u hv monies 2 hold on ur present stocks on hand. Juz hold & treat it as long term. Treat it as u r putting ur monies in e Fixed Deposit. BBs & Investment Co. r still inside those gd Counters. Let them do e job... They'll make e Chart & Port Folio nice nice 1 day...
