For long term investor, in the current climate is only paper gain... WB say greedy when other is fearful, fearful when other is greedy.. Got to be nimble at this point in time when 1800 at current climate. if things take a sudden turn cut loss.. limit yourself to 10% drop in price.. Cut loss.. If not just enjoy the rally... Hope will go up somemore.. but cautiously optimistic.... The world is thinking the root problem have been resolved, waiting for repairing of the economy to start moving again.. Each to it owm view.. Stock trading at higher price is good for the economy.. As business man can unload some stock for cash to help fund their businesss.. |

If the figure improve, it doent means it is ok...in a long drawnout graph ..we dont expect that it is a straight line down...just like this bear rally...at time it have a rally, but overall it is down trend.. for instant manufacturing index improve 36.3% from 36%...what type of improvement...it is far cry from 50..which is the norm... if you get s f+ from f-...did you pass your exam??... we got a long way to go from this crises...most bank in the US are still not out of the wood...a sad true..if Eastern Europe default on their loan, most likely. as they are bankrupt..Bank in around the globe will fall hard...this is a 3 trillion dollar crises...not a small matter...

May I know what's the target you guys usually set to cut loss / run with profit? Around 10% or more? |

I am adding for stocks to my previous buy... Stock markets soar on G20 hopes, improved US data
TOKYO: Asian stocks soared Thursday as dealers hoped the G20 summit will produce a plan to tackle the world financial crisis, while some positive news out of the United States added to market confidence. Hong Kong led the charge, closing 7.41 per cent higher, while Tokyo finished up 4.40 per cent at a three-month high and Sydney closed 2.81 per cent higher as markets continued an upward trend that began early last month. In Seoul, shares closed 3.54 per cent higher. The massive gains came as leaders of the 20 developed and developing nations prepared to meet later in London to hammer out an agreement aimed at dragging the world out of its worst economic slump in more than 70 years. "Make no mistake, we are facing the most severe economic crisis since World War II, and the global economy is now so fundamentally interlinked that we can only meet this challenge together," said US President Barack Obama following pre-summit talks. Earlier, France and Germany demanded tough action by the G20 to improve financial regulations while Obama warned the United States could no longer be counted on to be the "voracious consumer" that would lead worldwide growth. French President Nicolas Sarkozy and German Chancellor Angela Merkel said they were not happy with the draft proposals for the summit, and vowed to stand together to press for "non-negotiable" new global finance rules. But their calls were at odds with Japanese and United States plans to use further fiscal stimulus to kickstart economies. Asian markets were following a strong performance Wednesday on Wall Street, which rose two per cent after a positive manufacturing survey for March. The Institute of Supply Management index, also known as the purchasing managers index, came in at 36.3 per cent, slightly better than the expected reading of 36.0, and up from the February reading of 35.8. The figure is far below the 50 per cent level that separates expansion and contraction, however. Other data revealed construction spending for February decreased 0.9 per cent month-on-month. It was expected to decline 1.9 per cent after a revised 3.5 per cent monthly drop in January. Pending home sales for February were also up, 2.1 per cent from the previous month. They were expected to remain unchanged after declining 7.7 per cent in January. "It was obviously Wall Street, which started low but turned out to end higher, which is boosting the Tokyo share prices," said Seiichi Suzuki, strategist at Tokai Tokyo Securities Co. The US market opened sharply lower Wednesday after a payrolls firm reported higher than expected job losses in the US private sector in March amid the prolonged recession. But the manufacturing data led the rebound. There was also some rare good news for the US auto sector, where March sales saw a 24.5 per cent rise month-on-month. However, the 857,735 new sales was still 37 per cent lower year-on-year. Further US data on unemployment and non-farm payrolls is due out Friday. Eyes will also on Thursday be on the European Central Bank, which is expected to cut its key interest rate to an all-time low and may take unconventional measures to combat a deepening recession. Global stocks have rocketed over the past four weeks as confidence returns to markets following a number of stimulus measures by governments and a pledge by Washington to help banks clear their books of toxic assets that had clogged lending. |
