I hate to be a spoil sport but I'm always very afraid of days like these. Large price change, low trading volumes and largely unchanged economic fundamentals. 


The bailout of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac was largely expected for some time. The market is over exuberant, I think.

Some people will probably give me a bad post tick....

 Singapore time 9.45hrs.

 

NEW YORK - US stocks slumped at the opening on Thursday as oil prices reversed a days-long slide and the government reported a worrying rise in weekly jobless claims, stoking economic jitters.

 


The Dow Jones Industrial Average skidded 117.57 points (1.01 per cent) to 11,538.50 in opening trades and the tech-heavy Nasdaq composite dropped 16.40 points (0.69 per cent) to 2,361.97.

Hope to see some rebound in pm session, if not 2morow kena whip again loh. Olympics also no taste liao.

I think it is still bouncing.

Today's Singapore market not very convinced about the 300 point rise in Dow last night.

But some say cats have 9 lives... 

Anyway, things don't smell that rosy at all...


With the ongoing banks crisis... how much can things improve in the shorter term?... Smiley

Of course they do...and the strategy now is to cut loss, perhaps.

Perhaps you think the fund giants have no independent market strategy than just fear? Smiley

It's still the fear factor which is on play right now considering...."a few hundreds of US banks will fail eventually!!!" Is alr in the news.

I hope Jie-jie won't think I am bashing her again...or simply like to think differently from her...


My thought is that at this stage, something more fundamantal is in play rather than simply fear/greed.
I think knowledgeable people may be forseeing the bleakness of the financial markets...

Thus, a continuing market downtrend is more than likely (with brief rallies)...

But this is only my thoughts.
Believe it at your own risk!  Smiley

Investors and traders are driven primarily by greed and fear. 


Apparently, fear still rules the market.

Large fluctuations are very common in an illiquid market. I believe the market rally in the past couple of days were used by BBs to sell into strength. The losers are usually the retail investors.


I don't see any bottom fishing or "bargain hunting" by BBs in action. If there were, it would have been supported by large trading volumes.
