I believe the world market will come to a drastic end with so many absconders and collapses. Nowadays people are more dishonest than before. They are better equiped with technology and computer wizardry to cheat without being discovered until it is too late. The end is nigh. 2012 is 20th december 2009, and not 20th Dec 2012. |

Hang seng index opened strongly and up around 600 points. If the futures market also shows the resilience to dubai effect then STI will also move upwards. Good time to collect stocks. Happy trading. |

Dubai World break-up showed that oil money is not always mighty and economics prevails. Time for singapore companies to buy their port facilities and infra-structure businesses (our competitor) at cheaper price.... | ||||

U.A.E. Central Bank Stands Behind Lenders, Adds Funds (Update1) Share Business ExchangeTwitterFacebook| Email | Print | A A A By Arif Sharif Nov. 29 (Bloomberg) -- The United Arab Emirates’ central bank said it “stands behind” the country’s local and foreign banks, which face losses from Dubai World’s possible default, and offered them access to more money under a new facility. The central bank will make available to banks “a special additional liquidity facility linked to the current accounts” at the central bank that can be drawn upon at a cost of 50 basis points above the three-month Emirates inter-bank offered rate, the Abu Dhabi-based regulator said in an e-mailed statement today. Dubai World, a state-owned holding company struggling with $59 billion of debt and other liabilities, said Nov. 25 it would seek a “standstill” agreement with creditors. The news led to a slump in financial markets around the world and raised prospects of rising loan write-offs for U.A.E. and foreign banks. “This is a very re-assuring move by the central bank in order to limit the risk of any run on Dubai-based banks,” said John Sfakianakis, chief economist at Banque Saudi Fransi in Riyadh. It will alleviate any “liquidity concerns by foreign banks about the banking system, mostly those based in Dubai,” he said. The U.A.E.’s banking system is “more sound and liquid than a year ago” and local banks’ sale of medium-term notes and commercial paper in foreign markets has declined by 25 percent over the period, the central bank said. Foreign interbank deposits make up only 5 percent of overall interbank deposits, the central bank said in the statement.

i agree.... investors and traders shouldn't panic. Why? This is just Dubai, not the whole Emirates (UAE). Dubai is just one emirate or city that is in trouble. Abu Dhabi is standing strong and in fact, is waiting to let Dubai learn a painful lesson in how not to play fire with leverage. Everyone knew long ago that Dubai (the reckless cousin) has been behaving recklessly for a long time but were unwilling to voice their dissenting voice while the reckless fellow was enjoying his limelight. History is full of such people, places, etc that eventually come to griefs. Like the building of the biblical Tower of Babel. Abu Dhabi will chip in to rescue its cousin but of course, at a high price for Dubai. Those young turks that run Dubai in the wild days will be troughed out and replace by the more seasoned stable hands. Dubai, Goodbye. Time for a Reality Check!

Local companies with exposure to Dubai world - to avoid. 1. DBS (Islamic banking branch in Dubai) 2. City Dev (two-third of South Beach Proj owned by middle eastern investor, of which Dubai owns one-third). 3. Ascott Reits (operate 3 service apts in Dubai) 4. UOB, OCBC, DBS (syndicate loan to South Beach Proj). 5. SMRT 6. Any others ? Please add to this list. |

Gene on National Debt Now Tops $12 Trillion The National Debt has increased about $1.6 trillion on Mr. Obama’s watch, though less than $4.9 trillion run up during the presidency of George W. Bush. But the White House budget review issued in August projects that by the end of the current fiscal year on Sept 30th, the National Debt could top $14 trillion. It gets worse. The same document projects that by the end of the decade, the National Debt will hit $24.5 trillion — exceeding the Gross Domestic Product projected for 2019 of $22.8 trillion. The new debt number adds urgency to Treasury Department calls on Congress to quickly raise the statutory limit on the National Debt which now stands at $12.104 trillion. The debt ceiling was last raised in February as part of the $787 billion Recovery Act stimulus bill. The debt also costs a fortune to maintain. In the fiscal year just ended, the National Debt cost taxpayers over $383 billion. And that amount means the government is only paying 3.3 percent interest. If interest rates go up, so does the amount paid on the debt. And we’re paying it to scores foreign countries which hold $3.5 trillion of the U.S. Debt. China leads the pack holding nearly $800 billion in U.S. Government securities, followed closely by Japan with $731 billion. |

Not all blue chips. Perhaps banking stocks (esp DBS) and City Development will be affected.
