a heavy battle is still out there...today ended with the bears winning although STI was positive...but there will be a time to come when the bears go numb after so many negative news...time and tide will change
everyone have different views ba`
Don't agree with your view Livermore, it takes a long period for the bull to charge upward.....but when the "big and heavy" bear comes, it takes only days or weeks to wipe out what the bull has achieved....
Don't judge a book by its cover....esp this period as it might be a bear trap to tempt speculators out...
The bears being big and heavy might be too slow to pounce on the some of the winners out there.
WB to the rescue and have swing the mood and sentiment to positive territory in US...
However, two of the three troubled bond insurers billionaire investor Warren Buffett offered to help have rejected extra guarantees on municipal bonds..... 5 billion to take on 800 billion???
Your take....
Bear will take a break but waiting to pounce again.
The polar bears probably did not notice that NOL just recorded 44% increase in full year profit. NOL price has surged.
Bears must also pause a while...

Bear take a break today, but it may be back sooner than you thought....
Setting a BEAR trap????
BEAR slashed the Asia/Pacific markets indices RED once again with India down b almost 5%....
not a good sign....
BEAR wipe out $5.2 trillion in value from world equities in the month of Jan 08...
How to withstand with more fund managers raising more fund for redemption...
How to withstand with more margin call and bad economic datas out ...
Hey, no offence, but this is thread attribute to the BEAR.....no personal attack intended. As previously stated, this thread will be active as long the BEAR rules. Once the bull is back, bet this thread will "die" a natural death as fewer and fewer comments will be added.
Looks like Dow is still in negative territories which set the platform for lower STI on Monday.
It is rather easy to be offended when one is holding a position and then someone makes some comments to the contrary... it can get rather emotional as the one holding tries to defend his decision...
It is only human nature...
And the stock market thrives and exists on such human nature... ie. emotional attachment...
When one ceases to be offended by a contrary view, trading wisdom begins...
No offence, Jason bro,
but from your posting, i think you are vested
USA passed bill of $160+ billion, things should be stabalising hopefully :)
Livermore... :)
I agree with all that...
Well these are also facts :
1. Infrastructure spending will continue in emerging eocnomies simply
because without infrastructure, the countries cannot progress further.
With high material cost, companies with good economies of
scale will do well.
2. Domestic demand in China will continue.
3. Agricultural commodity prices will be firm and should continue to trend
up.
4. A shortage of fresh water in future in some countries
Ipoh12... :)
Even those with lofty economics background may have to contend with their ego (ie. holding a strong opinion within the heart) ...
Thus is the nature and reality of stock market play, which is but all based on human thinking...
BEAR is raiding Dow and Europe again....mostly in the red....

These are the facts:
1. US maybe entering recession and is in mess due to subprime
2. China lost USD7.5b due to drastic weather
3. India is fighting hard against bird flu
hmm ... even someone without economics background can tell you that we are into a "good" RAT year.
So sad to end the last day of Pig year with a lost of 106 points and breaking thru 3000 support, more to come as negative news start popping here and there...
That aside.....wish everyone Happy New Year...
