Global institutional investors are less pessimistic at the start of this year than previously. A global investor confidence index (ICI) released by State Street Global Markets on Wednesday reflected higher investor confidence and risk appetite, as the index rose for a second consecutive month to 86.8 in January, from December's revised reading of 81.4.There is now more global consensus on the appropriate stance to take towards risky assets.

But credit spread is widening, indicating inter market trend is waek. Look at europe , all up but Spain and italy are tanking again. Spain was down 1.5% yesterday. Now they focus on the dow, wait till they refocus on Spain, then u have a big drop of 300 to 500 pts. just have a stop to cover your bottom Europe is in recession yet their mkt is uo so much.This is BB strategy to suck you into it.

Whether correction is coming soon, or not coming soon, is not for anyone to say. Market collapses usually only come when markets are booming, and all are elated and 'bullish all over'. But when all are expecting a collapse, doom and gloom, that is when a collapse is unlikely. When cliffs are expected, they will be averted. That is how the markets work... ![]()

Some people may call short but actually buy long, or never enter the market at all.  Same as those who chant up every day  but give  no reasons. They are what we call noise/entertainment and are of no investment  value. Those who had followed dutifully his short calls for the past few months should have lost loads of money while those who go the opposite way like Medivh and one of my friends made quite a lot of money.  I only take into account some of the more  reliable  forerunners posts, especially those informative ones.  For TA I thought Lowchia is the most unbiased  and straight from the book. There are other good forerunners in this forum.  Be selective and ignore the noise.

Feb. 1 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. stocks surged as growth in American payrolls was enough to ease concern about the economy without stoking speculation the Federal Reserve will hasten the end of stimulus. Industrial metals led gains in commodities and the yen weakened, while Treasuries reversed early gains. | ||||

Because of Mdm Iso's persistently wrong short calls on the Dow, each morning when I wake up to the sweet news of a strong performance yet again, I am reminded of Mdm Iso. She is undoubtedly a worthy role model for her perseverance! (But definitely not her trade calls.) | ||||

My viewpoint:  Febuary will be a month of relatiatvely low movements but still   high at up there, big players need time to cash and distributiet an... but march/april it is time to sell.. but is it going to be a bad crash? highly unlikely, term structure of interest rates doesnt seem to suggest a " crash worse than 2007" . However that being said still better to be on the safe side and hold more cash rather than shares...    good luck guys! |

The Dow was really super " guai " (sangat sangat baik) last night ...     Closed 3-digit green in the midst of much gloom in people's minds...             Offering a good welcome to CNY and Valentine...  ![]() |

now everyone put in money take out from bank take out from gold take out loan to play stocks. Alot of loans and debt. Be careful.   when retail start playing and everyone is buying on greed. its best to be cautious. i believe A debt crisis is very likely to come soon. For stocks it will be worst then the financial crisis.

STI haven't 3300. Corrections wont come.   If STI can maintain, there wont be corrections. If every 100 comes a correction, 3200 already corrected.  ![]() |
