That's really not too surprising...

Since the good 'tai-tais' could well have superb connections with those in the know eg. funds and brokerage people, etc.

So you see,one should not underestimate or belittle 'tai-tais' and 'sow-sows'
(ah soh).

Well spoken... :)

But the reality is many have "V" thinking somehow ingrained.

A v shaped recovery is unikely even though markets are irrational.
Just as a wounded soldier takes time to recover from physical and psychological trauma-sell the rallies until stability returns

Can this be a likely scenario...?

Big Boys (Big Funds) can easily ramp things up if they want to...

then they release bit by bit to 'the masses'...

that's why a downtrend happens so gradually that no one even notices.

The reason is here, interest rate hike is to coooo..mkt, instead it fuelling d mkt, so be perpare for the coaster roller ride.



Next. oni index stocks, + properties is strong so bank naturally follow up throu...too which is in line with regional bourses.

Bear trap ? The BB pushing market up,..than slowing passing the baton to the retailers like us,..thinking that the market has U turn.. and than we will be the one holding those shares when BB finally exit and smile all the way to the bank.

Referring to that Shanghai market rally mentioned earlier by l_tan888...

Normally an interest rate hikes (esp. consecutive ones) will send stocks reeling...

But instead, the Shanghai market did the surprising reverse!!!.

What;s happening???

Yes... I agree very much too.. :)

Since it appears that a downtrend is in force (slowly,slowly revealed), it is a great idea too.

Me too, hope to grab something at a great low price since, like you, I hold nothing.

actually....I hope the other way around...market drop would be a better sign for me now as I am not holding on to anything at the meantime....a drop means better chances of me buying at a lower rate and selling off at a better one...

of coz lah, people like me will be very cautious now due to recent market movements, I bet the mindset of many will want to be too...thus result in lower volume...be patient...relax lah...sit around, sip your coffee and wait for the right timing to hit again...too "gan jiong" and most likely u'll get burn again...
