it has been in talks for months about the Federal cuts...ppl are already expecting it...however, should it rally, we probably see "sell into strength"...ppl buying up are likely based on a contra in hoping to sell high tomorrow... what is unforeseen ahead is still the economical data and how much Fed will actually cut....if they don't live up to the high expectations (the expectations already increase to 1% cut...)...then probably those who buy in today will regret... but in this market...we really are unclear of what is to happen next with mine fields all over...like Bear Stearns |

been very busy recently trading forex as EurUSd is giving easy $ longing it. Forex traders will know what i mean. Anyway, me with some adv traders and some of my friends have entered the market grabbing STI call warrents or Value Stocks on sale. i just told my brokers to buy call warrents for me if STI do a double bottom and rebounce. tomolo, Fed is expected to cut interest rates and TA wise and News wise, DOW should have some support which in turn will help STI abit. Times like this , best is hit and run. When good times come, then buy and hold works better. |

I disagree. The bulk of shares today are in the red. Looking at the timing of the transaction is not a good idea since wih a small fee you can probably time a brokage program to buy your stock at at strike price. The markets looks really bearish now, and the Straits Times today even carried an article saying that it is almost official that the US is in Recession, and THAT, was before they even knew that Bear Stern got sold for a song. And now with 'shortist' awakening in hordes and depressing the prices of many bluechips, I think it's not worth the risk to hope for 'an immense rally', which is really hard to imagine in the current situation. Stay tune to the DOW movement instead. If it stays below 12000, no matter how much losses today, it's a sign that the economy is really in deep poo! I mean, the last 2 days have seen the US putting in immense efforts, from the bank rate cuts to the impending fed rate cut. If despite this, the Dow stays below 12000, imagine the effect as these impact of these news wear off??? Trade with caution. For short term traders, don't forget that FRIDAY is a non trading day! |

We maybe enter into phase three before deciding which direction to hang on when and if Bear turn into a reality (HOPE NOT). We might be testing water on phase four, that will turn bear up side down, hope other world economical power can save Us and hope it is not another economic tsuami. |

Hehehehe.... At one point, STI was down by more than 3% when it hit 2745.... Then.... oddly enough... a sudden spate of buying, and this took place at 10am, not around 4.30pm which is when ppl normally do short covering. If the real economy has really gone to the dogs as what the indices seem to indicate, who are the buyers at 10am???? I have a really nigging suspicion... that tomorrow is going to be the start of an immense rally. BTW, for those who look at HSI futures, take a look at the intraday charts - oddly enough there was a sudden rally in the last 15 mins of futures trading. Also... take a look at DJIA now. The whole day the index futures were around -180 to -200. Now only -64. And if you look at the DJIA - basically... it's already rebounded fully from the current day low and is in fact GREEN. I'm personally expecting to see a close just above 12000. Caveat emptor. |

HSI down by 5.18%, Nikkei by 3.71% STI down by 1.63% Seems odd to me. |

Bear ST earns chances of survival will probably have to be taken over or broken up and sold. JPmorgan, which is helping it borrow from the FED, is a possible buyer, or it could sell a big equity stake to a foreign investor, such as a sovereign wealth fund, One thing i know of is..so far when they ever buy is at DIRT cheap price..US$2/- been mentioned. The same goes to the world richest man. Source: BBC |
