QUOTE(danmooncake @ Feb 18 2015, 10:54 PM) No-lah.. have to play the SPY ETF, it correlates closely to SP500. You might get it yet. Looks a bit shaky at the top. LOL kind of weird.. 200 - 210 is just 5% .. minus commission it's 4.2% maybe? that's about the promo rate for 1-year FD 210 = 2100 on SP500. 1/10 of the size. Some of us want a 5% pullback to get back in... Not sure if market can give this chance or not. The bulls have been pretty strong despite all the negative headlines for past few weeks. |

QUOTE(AVFAN @ Mar 10 2015, 03:16 PM) think not so easy... That's the plan.. spread the bad news to lower the rate. But if you really read the article, you can see the facts are different from the tone of it. Problem is people don't read and fall for obvious hatchet jobs. everyday, there is some report saying "msia abc.xyz worst performer..." today, this one: fyi, rm touched 3.70/usd this morning. Thing is now, how is this government going to respond to this? This post has been edited by wodenus: Mar 10 2015, 07:13 PM |

QUOTE(oe_kintaro @ Mar 14 2015, 12:54 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. QE does not seem to be working. US has been in decline for three weeks. Eurozone still dead. US can't hike now will send market into free fall.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(oe_kintaro @ Mar 14 2015, 01:28 AM) 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. 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. |

QUOTE(oe_kintaro @ Mar 14 2015, 01:41 AM) 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. OK so the market is going to continue to tank while the economy improves? But then people will have a lot of money with no place to put it. |

QUOTE(danmooncake @ Mar 14 2015, 11:06 AM) Don't worry. If you're like me, you've been through tough times. If you lost everything how did you have the money to move? If you are declared a bankrupt you have to return to your home country and are forbidden to travel out of it right?The second round, you will know what to do and be more prepared. In '97 after the crisis, I left M'sia and went over S'pore. Even S'pore not immune. 2 1/2 years later, dot com bubble hit US and it hit S'pore even worse than Malaysia '97 crisis. I was devasted. Lost my apartment, car and everything. Left S'pore to USA to start over. In '08 financial crisis hits USA, I was better prepared. Maintained my portfolio well, and I was able to get thru it. When it recovers later, my net worth grew 3x times over when everyone was still suffering. If another big one hit M'sia (the signs are here...) just get ready to tough it out. You should be hardened by now. Opportunities are also here. This post has been edited by wodenus: Mar 14 2015, 11:15 AM |
