Are you still in casinos - gaming play?

LVS - seems to be stuck in twilight zone for past 3 months. Same goes for MPEL.

Something not right about the latest their hope for opening Japan.  hmm.gif
*
I'm not playing with casino stocks, I'm investing and still hold it since year 2009 .
Anyhow, some of their dividends already covered my cost of purchase.
Japan, Vietnam, S.Korea expansion will be good, but with gradually growth in
Las Vegas,Nevada and sustain Macau's revenue/profit, shld be good for long.
Will not plan to relocate/change this portfolio. Will put my extra money into bank (LYG),
aim for distributing earning profits thru dividends or get home building/construction(BZH)
when there is an opportunity.

Always the positive or thinking of making good profits.. What are the risk , negative and make losses
you want to share?

Hard to always make correct signal/formula from trading compared to investment model.

VIX - still below expectations.
Should reaches 26pts and above to have fear / panic situation.. Best time to bargain some shopping?

Year of Horse didn't progress much, as many ppls expects great hope/expectation on this zodiac animal.
See how the year of Goat ? IMHO Jan 2015 will be another opportunity (if VIX uptrend) to add more portfolios .. hmm.gif

I'm interested to know if low oil prices can hurt Petronas or not.. but someone spin the story it doesn't hurt Petronas at all but yet Petronas made its move to reduce cap expenses and caused a dump in Malaysia equities in December.

Our oil is the high grade oil which target airlines, aerospace, high R n D bio/ technology ..etc ..
For airlines, many companies already have a fuel /oil hedge contract allows a large fuel consuming company to establish a fixed price.
If you are the oil producer and with the current price, will you want to dig more oil, sell yr oil or hedge the oil price to many big companies ? hmm.gif

JPN / GUAM / INDIA / AUS / PHI supported by big brother and NATO vs CHI ? rclxub.gif
In Astro CCTV 4 (Channel 334) yesterday and today, many analysts in CHI predict and analyst this scenario ? doh.gif
WWI and WWII brings many income to certain nations.. JPN is not any easy opponent, as they were rich, developed,
advanced and hardworking.. Proven in WWII, as they lost to big brother, and not CHI .. Back to USA Stock Discussion.

auntie yellen is basically saying no rate hike consideration until fall. so, 6 months more to stay long! tongue.gif

there was a flash video on cnbc last nite showing nikkei, ftse, dax all up >10% for 2015. us markets up only 5%, has plenty of room to catch up! laugh.gif

been looking for a good enough dip to buy a bit more but in the last few weeks, little chance...
*
For traders (short term), still believe ==> Buy in Oct, Sell in May plus go away. Signal trend is important to them.
For investors(long term), don't care the signals and not interested on rate record low, QE, currency wars..etc.etc thumbup.gif

Anyone been looking at the gaming stocks (esp. US-Macau based) lately... (LVS, WYNN, MPEL, MGM, etc..)?
They just can't seem to get a break despite better earnings last quarter.  China crackdown seems to be wearing
down them greatly.  hmm.gif

Temporary setback.. If you bought it 5-6 years ago, it still have very good paper gain.
The setback offset with strong usd currency exchange, qrtrly dividends . For investors, any hiccups
is a non issue at all and investors don't time the market.

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.

RM 4 = 1 USD ? Not only RM, other major currencies also depreciates against the greenback, because
FED stopped QE and plan to hikes interest rates gradually. Crude Oil trade in USD and because of strong USD,
crude oil price won't increase and go back to previous 7 -8 months ago price. 1MDB temporary issue is due to insufficient short term cashflow / current ratio ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Financial_ratio ). Why? Because of strong nation economics leads to many construction development projects here. If you are a Petrol Producer
Company here, will you want to dig more oil and sell the oil at this price ? Think about equilibrium. If the oil produce cost is higher than the market price, why do you want to dig more and sell / long term peg selling at this price?
Every month 9M salaried employees got deducted(employer n employee portions) from salary and channeled to KWSP.. Every month KWSP is receiving monies.. Still got PETRONAS,
KWSP and strong BNM Foreign Reserve. You money is safe in the bank. For USA Stocks, it is safe either in local
bank or foreign Brokers..

Good thing on weak RM. Tourism Business(more inflow, ppls jobs), many ppls hold on their oversea holiday vacation and go local vacation(less RM outflows, ppls jobs), many ppls hold on on luxury goods and use local if needed(less outflow) many FOREIGNERS and Singaporean ppls buying property here, palm oil and other commodities 's demand more due to weak RM, if you target China and India markets.If PAS implements HUDUD and ban all entertainments/Casino/4D/TOTO,
will be even WORSE, as no income to Govt if they in PutraJaya. Maybe, block all internet access to foreign forex broker/stock market brokers?? rclxub.gif Foreign Forex/Stock Market is haram to them? How come dosmetic issues will impact USA Stock Discussion here ? unsure.gif hmm.gif

Just beginning of the earning season.. Don't time the market. VIX is still very bullish.

If $VIX is bullish, that means market is bearish because of fear.
Or do you mean $VIX is still bearish? 

May is almost two weeks away.. remember what suppose to happen in May every year..    brows.gif

If u don't time the market, during market recovery, investors can buy and hold at any time.
Buy in October and Go away/Sell in May is just a historical average performance 6 months used for many decades,
but may vary this year ? hmm.gif
