STI had ended today with a Hanging Man. The downtrend normally is confirmed with this sign. Have to do some home works to sort out which fishs are the best to short for the coming week.. | ||||

market in a state of uncertainty and intra day change of 50-100 (or even more) points are common....and we do not like uncertainty as it violates two basic principle of share investing: Rule 1: Never lose money Rule 2: Never lose money Rule 3: Go back to rule 1. another: Rule 1: Be disclipline Rule 2: Be disclipline Rule 3: Go back to rule 1 If market is uncertain, how not to lose money (similar going to Genting to gamble big or small). If market is uncertain, one have to be disclipine (some may have the itch to trade, but before any trade, have a fail safe solution even when up or down). Good luck :) |

just see how SPOT-ON we called the date for crash during July 21st, BULL run till October 15th after the crash, and Uncertainty after 15th October (in which on 16th, 17th, 18th and 19th October, you see intra-day flunctaution of 50-100 points)...MARKET speaks louder than words...good luck :) NB: We do have a "CRYSTAL BALL" :)

Business Times 18 October, 2007 - Fund houses show their hand - and it's thumbs up.
BT survey reveals they ae mildly bullish, still hot on China but worried about US slowdown.
BT has polled top fund houses and found that they are moderately bullish about the equities market over the next 6 months. The 10 fund houses who shared their views have combined assets of US$1.39 trillion under management.
UBS is positive on the industrial sector as it relates to the infrastructure theme. Spending on infrastructure is expected to triple over the next 10 years.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
In one of my past posts, I said that it would be good to look for a theme when you invest. I mentioned about infrastructure as a theme that can last for many years. Here are my themes :
1. China
2. Commodities - oil, metals etc
3. Infrastructure
You can even find a stock that has all of the 3 themes.
No doubt bad market sentiment affects all stocks, but it is important to remember that one is investing in a company stock and not a stock called the "STI". Many times people have liquidated their positions in a market crash but might forget to buy back those stocks with long term potential. When you don't focus and the stock recovers, you would have lost sight of it.
Good luck!

Big funds are adjusting their positions in response to the change in probability of the US Fed Reserve interest rate adjustment. High volatility is expected during this period. A lot of testing of previous supports & resistances will also be expected. For this week and next week, expect a general downtrend for both STI & DJIA if nothing exceptionally positive comes out in the global markets, so trade carefully, cream off profits during the rallies. |

Richard Russell newsletter16/10/07; Competitive printing of banana paper money by central banks will keep the bull running until inflation gets out of control. No bear in sight- only inflation on the horizon |

Victorf, Waiting for your all-clear sign. Hee hee, don't worry, just kidding. Anyway, your reminder is good. Will wait for more certain time, and meanwhile, just hang on to those LT holdings. Good luck trading! |

however, we believe that this time the correction should not be as huge as the previous one in July...and we will observe market during this uncertainty period and will post once we realise that certainty is back...good luck trading :) | ||||

market moves as predicted...in the period of uncertainty we called that will occur after 15th October (already stated in August the October date), there are always intra-day drop of 50-100 points as usual (nothing surprising to us)...and our precision is up to per day (16th, 17th both got intra-day drop of 50-100 points)...good luck
