a jump of from 2980+ to 3580+ from August till now should be considered a BULL as it involves 600 points...you know how long it takes for the index to move 600 plus points previously (may be years)...strangely people still think it is a bear market...for us, we only know that there are still a few weeks left for the BULL with certainty (uncertainty then will come in of which we do not know the movement)...and the 600 plus points up should be considered a BIG MOVE...think the WAIT will never come for someone (missing the boat) whiles some have already LAUGHING to the BANK ...good luck trading :) |

Hi Singaporegal, You would have lost out out many cents in a stock, waiting for ideal time to enter. When you wish to buy, some may already be selling to you at a huge profit. |

arowana, if the houses are really good, all the owners will be multi-billionaires liao...but think they adopt the common strategy in which only constitutes 50% of the market movement (historical analysis whether use TA or what)...and hence sometimes they are correct, sometimes they are wrong...many other factors in play for future...good luck | ||||||

I'm waiting for the time when there are steady increases in STI backed by large daily volumes (> 2 billion shares). Today's spike may not signal a return of the bull yet. | ||||||

Some analyst are pointing to a US recession next year. It might or might not happen. US has been experiencing slow growth but Singapore's growth has been targetted to be 6-7% by year end.We all know the US economy is slowing down in the future and yet Singapore is expected to have good growth for the next 5 - 10 years. More jobs and wages are on the rise. Maybe 6 years ago, with the US economy slowing down, we won't have it so rosy. I think it is because Singapore has diversified its economy. Things are different now because Asia is different now.
Unfortunately not people like China stocks after what happend to China Aviation. It is a pity. I see some China companies as the more likely ones to become blue chip companies because the market is huge. Four years ago, Cosco was only 90c, Back then I remember the CEO said he would make Cosco a blue chip company one day. Well look at Cosco now.
As I had mentioned previously, infrastructure as a theme for invetsment can easily last 20 years in emerging eocnomies. Infrastrucure and commodies (materials) are inter-related. With boom in infrastructure, commodities (materials) will be in great demand.
Bad market sentiment affects all stocks. However the fundamentally good ones will eventually go up. So depending on what you invest in, the rewards will be great if you have a long term view.

Hi Starline, I am confident my 3 point strategy works. I am not saying this based on hindsight i.e it is easy for me to say now that prices for stock have gone up. It was precisely I picked quite a few good stocks and never held long enough that I regretted. Finally, I changed my strategy one year ago. Explaining about the benefits of margin investment is "exhausting". I have done that in the past already. If one's view is adamantly 180 degree out of phase, it it is hard to align yourself in the "correct angle" and see the benefits. Be flexible. |

Here may has another two (2) reason......hmm. (Fortune Magazine) -- Alan Greenspan's memoir arrives with remarkable timing for two reasons. One is that at a time like this, with financial markets in upheaval, we yearn for guidance from the oracle who presided over 18 years of relative peace and prosperity in the U.S. economy. The second is that a wave of revisionist thinking holds that the reign of Greenspan may not have been so great after all, that he bears some responsibility for the twin bubbles of (1st, reason)dot-com mania and the recently (2nd, reason) deflated housing boom. |

As his new memoir pulls back the curtain on the mysteries of the Fed, Alan Greenspan spoke to Fortune's Andy Serwer about market mayhem, housing prices, and his new critics.

Greenspan warns of rising inflation.
Cutting interest rate in such an environment will make matters worse.
It looks like bad times ahead instead of golden years.
