x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	NewMoon... :) ... Excellent post of yours, Sir... I love it... A bear market, once commenced, is apt to continue...because the cause of it is feeding on itself... bad sentiment begets bad sentiment... ie. When fundamental sentiment is bad, people sell on the good solid rallies (eg the 8 Aug rally). The rallies are the result of buying by "superheated frogs". Also, and I think more importantly... The "heated frogs" who have just recently experienced a good bull market have till now been averaging down all the way... They will soon become cooler (ie. not so heated) and cooler and when they become "cold frogs", they will eventually give up the ghost and dump, thus the vicious cycle feeds on itself. This is the cause of prolonged bear markets....

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Liquidity injection is a symptomatic treatment and not a cure.It justs bails out the big boys who made bad decisions instead of punishing them.On Thursday in USA- the hedge funds- to get cash- they bought back the shorts they sold(lousy stocks )and sold the longs (good stocks) they bought because of the failure of computer models( which had worked in the past)-hence the paradox of good stocks falling and lousy stocks rising on that day creating huge losses on both trades for the hedge funds. The derivatives were meant to reduce risk but the opposite is happening-the worst is yet to be. It is best to let the the B wave run it's course and sell the rallies when this wave is exhausted. China is hiding behind the bamboo curtain.The stocks and property markets are potential time bombs.  Prognosis -bear market unravelling and overdue

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	"to each his own" is a meaningless phrase... "losing money by believing stubbornly in something" is more meaningful at this time... Hope that is useful information for the newbies...

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Folks, an interim solution to prevent interest rate spike by injecting cash by the FED/ECB to the banks has been put in place.  Be the solution a temporal or permanent one or whatever the side effect will be later on, remember to focus on the big picture, not the macros AND chance the opportunities in the market.
