with miserable rm, still costly to buy more even with correction.

will really have to pick carefully.

xle... i'll buy more at 73; xlv, will top up at 69. tongue.gif
meanwhile, my holidays will be restricted to klang-pj-kl, very acceptable. laugh.gif

but much could RM rebound (if ever)? that's the big question. 3.50? i bet the day of 3.30 may have left us far far, don't mentioned below 3.00. unsure.gif

depends who u ask. ask jibkor or jeti, it shud be 3.00 becos everything is v good.

ask some experts, some say 3.73 is about right, some say it will go beyond that.

i only think about why it is the worst performing asian currency in the last 1 wk, 1 mth, 1 yr; what seeds have been sowed and if they will mean recovery or further depr. answer - i leave it to yr own analysis n imagination... tongue.gif

did zeti mention 3.00?

well, we are oil producer and oil is major contribution to the country, so that all make sense. Furthermore, 1MDB has serious problem on integrity which can lead to serious "asset quality issue" (if we look at a country in a whole as an asset). So for me, degrading of RM makes good sense actually. Lets see how they manage the 1MDB issue, and see how oil price going forward. biggrin.gif

yes, spot rate used each time i buy with rm.

becos i dun wanna keep unused funds in usd for too long - no int earned for fx.

usd only with dividends or proceeds from selling.

still, glad that my holdings were all bought at 3.45-3.60. hence some profit in rm! laugh.gif

gotta wait for RM to rebound....maybe 3.50 laugh.gif

thing is, malaysia economy now quite unstable. First of course is the oil price, more and more negative sentiment in recent weeks, may visit $40 soon. GST, 2 weeks later, may see more volatile local market, most likely FF selling down. Politically, Ah Jib gor recently got whacked by its own party, if Malaysia goes politically unstable once again + using the knife of 1MDB, FF will sell big time. Minor effect, PKR also may break up soon. All these will lead to weaker RM. 4? easily achieving.

however, lets hope market do its magic. Just like many past events, unpredictable. When most people shout negative, market moved the other way, up up and up. Gold, USD both happening now in this manner.

even if oil goes to 40, i'm nervous...

think a couple of hundred million barrels now on supertankers and land depots.

wonder if some will just burn or dump somewhere when they run out of storage...? sweat.gif

while prices have dropped, the fallout in the chain will take months if not years.

well, if saudi/opec says they will cut production, that's major. but they just said can count on china n middle east!

it's a game that the big boys holding the ball, highly manipulated. If the crisis is short of oil, that would be a tough one. But now, it's oversupply, that's manageable, just about strategy. For us, the guessing game is, where is the bottom in the big boys mind. laugh.gif

Actually, if you think about this, nothing she said was actually suppose to be positive for the market (because of  the pending rate hike later and continuation of a stronger dollar) but because the bears were so scare of their positions, they ran caused the short covering rally.
*
true, her words were neutral to market.
the market just scare of April rate hike, anything not that keep the bull running (for now).
still, i am expecting a correction coming.... laugh.gif

what happened as a result of what yellen said...

us stocks up 1.3%
oil price up 5%
usd lost 1.1% to rm (1-3% for others)

so, in rm terms... net gain 0.2%. laugh.gif
biggest winners were obviously oil/energy stocks.

we'll see if the rally continues tonight...

i want usd to drop more, rm to up more. so that i can put more money on foreign shares, same as you. biggrin.gif
