No lah... I'm not holding on to any stocks. Too poor to trade lah... always lose money ..... unlike you .... punt here punt there and make $$ ... you're a real guru in SJ!

 

How about you tell me what you're holding now? I follow you 100% all the way!

 hahaha...

I've already said before...

In the stock market, the paradox is that a "guru" is really one who is not a "guru"...

So I will not be able to see myself as a guru at all... :)

iPunter,

You are absolutely correct that "Nobody really knows".

Actually i've been looking at the stock market only for 3 weeks, so am quite inexperienced and finding a suitable investing style. Learning from the gurus like yourself... :)

Sojourner...

The question is...

Is the market going to fall ... or is it telling you it's going to fall?

Or is it telling you it's going to rise even more before falling flat? No one really knows...


I believe that even in stock market...

 "thinking of the outside of the old box" also applies... :)

Hi iPunter and victorian, interesting that you mention historical market movements. I'm reading "The Intelligent Investor" by Benjamin Graham, and trying hard to buy to hold, rather than buying for ST profits. The analogy provided is that if someone called Mr. Market comes to you everyday and tells you the changing value of your property, should you be having sleepless nights over it? Or do you shrug it off.

I know someone said a paperloss is still a loss (could be iPunter). But i'm trying hard to resist making all the ST buys. Any tips or guidelines you have would be appreciated.

In my view, one should never consider 'future' history based on one's knowledge or memory of the past.

The past is past, usually obsolete.


The future need not necessarily repeat past events, either in quality or scale.

The future can be surprisingly different from expectations.

The predominant rule now appears to be "buy on dips"...

ie. Sentiment is strong...

Perhaps most here are not into the blue chips.  A lot of pennies did well.

Right! That is a good symptom. I guess most (at least 90 percent) of STI investors have completed NS training. The training has internalize our boys not to GABRA in times of market crisis..... Smiley
