QUOTE(wodenus @ Mar 14 2015, 12:27 AM) The only one optimistic about our RM right now is Zeti. It's true MYR is undervalued but only slightly, and comparatively less vs some other currencies out there.Right now only US is holding the fort. China is so so. Eurozone is the dogs. However, the various QEs should mean that we will see a lot of free and hot money swirling around in equities. A good time to pick choice Euro stocks if you are playing those. The timing of the next US interest rate hike is the key I think |

QUOTE(wodenus @ Mar 14 2015, 01:20 AM) A three-week decline is a strange definition of improving I'm referring to the overall US economy not just the equities. It's still relatively rosy compared to the other place. Low oil prices are good for their economy. |

QUOTE(wodenus @ Mar 14 2015, 01:33 AM) Well equities are the economy right? If equities are down and the economy is up, shouldnt people be buying equities right now? It seems that way to me. no, equities are not really the economy anymore, they're forward looking. The various QEs made sure that there was more money than anyone would dare to use. So since the banks are unable to lend out, they put into equities. |

QUOTE(wodenus @ Mar 14 2015, 11:01 AM) Well unemployment rate is dropping, wages are going up, people will soon be rich again. And then interest rates will go up, which will make them richer. Interest rates affect cost of borrowing and doing business. Again, if Yellen pulls the trigger too early, the whole thing could potentially grind to a halt. That has happened before. Chances are the US will want to make hay while the sun shines and delay the rate hike a bit. |

QUOTE(MNet @ Mar 14 2015, 10:19 PM) how u all hedge US/MYR if u transfer RM to USD brokerage account? Not sure how to do that, but the chance of MYR gaining 0.2 vs the USD are super slim for this year.... I'm more worried about moving the money out of the country vs moving it back in at the moment. As much as possible I don't want to bring my money back to Malaysia because I expect the MYR to weaken even further.let say now rm3.7=USD1 then after few month forex rate change to rm3.5=USD1. we're losing rm0.2/USD pls advise on how to deal with these situation |

QUOTE(AVFAN @ Mar 18 2015, 09:31 AM) i think most of the tech big caps are doing fine. these r profitable, good cashflow cos., not dotcoms for sure. The future is in the cloud. As long as everyone keeps looking for cat pictures and porn one subsector not looking good - pc/pc makers. microsoft, intel n the like are going down, giving warnings. becos pc's now getting overwhelmed by smartphones n tablets. but these cos. will adapt, we know, just need time. aapl has been exceptional. they continue to come out with new products, non stop. use of solar, apple watch, and now appletv "skinny bundles" - a threat to those big bundles cable tv. |

QUOTE(AVFAN @ Mar 18 2015, 10:11 AM) There are still other fish in the sea. Clue: look at how information is being generated is being created, stored, retrieved and manipulated. When you understand the whole cycle of data you'll understand why players like Google and FB completely turned the market on its head and why the IBMs and Intels are struggling. There are still HW plays out there but the real game is in software.There are some really exciting companies out there just waiting to be IPOed. I'm eyeing companies like Palantir which are still privately held but will IPO sooner or later. |
