Ringgit Tumbles to Weakest Since 3.8 Dollar Peg Scrapped in 2005

Malaysia’s ringgit tumbled to the weakest level since a dollar peg was scrapped in 2005 as the heightened risk that Greece will exit the euro damped demand for emerging-market assets.

The currency dropped 0.7 percent to 3.8045 versus the greenback as of 8:21 a.m. in Kuala Lumpur, data compiled by Bloomberg show. The currency was fixed at 3.8000 per dollar in 1998 during the Asian financial crisis after it slumped 35 percent the previous year amid a devaluation in the Thai baht.

Fitch boost for Malaysia short-lived, ringgit hardest hit in Asia

PETALING JAYA: The simmering economic crisis in Greece and weakness in China continued to roil financial markets across the region, with the ringgit being the hardest hit among Asian currencies.

Sentiment on the ringgit was further compounded by rising domestic political risk, lingering concerns about 1Malaysia Development Bhd’s massive debt problems and lower oil revenue.

The local unit fell to a 16-year low yesterday at 3.809 against the US dollar - a level last seen before the exchange rate was pegged in 1998.

The Asian Development Bank on Thursday cut its economic-growth forecast for developing Asia amid slower-than-expected growth in the United States and China.
The bank said the growth outlook for Southeast Asia was trimmed to 4.6% because Thailand, Indonesia, and Singapore's economies disappointed in the first half. Subregional growth will likely accelerate next year to 5.1%.

Another blow to Singapore’s economy as Saudi oil refinery steals Europe sales

Saudi Arabia, the world’s top crude oil exporter, has turned itself into a major refined-fuels power, offering customers millions of barrels of diesel and potentially triggering a price war with Asian competitors as its exports feed into a glut.

“We are already seeing the impact in the Asia Pacific,” said Suresh Sivanandam, principal analyst for refining and chemicals at Wood Mackenzie.

“This year, there is not a single drop of diesel exported from Singapore to the Middle East,” he added, referring to a once popular diesel export route.

Since I am reading Ben Graham's The Intelligent Investor, I quote one paragraph...

QUOTE
In the area of near-term selectivity, the current year's results of the company are generally common property on Wall Street; next year's results, to the extent they are predictable, are already being carefully considered. Hence the investor who selects issues chiefly on the basis of this year's superior results, or on what he is told he may expect for next year, is likely to find that others have done the same thing for the same reason.


- The Intelligent Investor, Benjamin Graham, Revised Edition, p31

Sifu sifu  I have a question. 

Lump sum investing vs dollar cost averaging

Most article assumes that at the start you've had a big lump sum cash  and then we choose to DCA or not. Their research says that lump sum gives better returns over DCA 2 th

But how about youve got no lump sum cash now?
if I choose to lump sum. Meand ill accumulate cash overtime In savings account.  And when market ngam ngam. Then lump sum invest in?
*
If you happen to invest lump sum during bear market, you are going to get good return. But how do you know when the next bear market will come?

I tell you one story:
In 2008, before GE 12, when the Parliament was dissolved, market was down.
People were expecting the same thing to happen before GE13. Some exited the market as early as 2012. But the Parliament was only dissolved in April 2013, and yet there was no major correction.
Major correction only happened last year.

If you were one who exited the market in 2012, what would you miss?
