FED won’t react that fast. It still will be next yrs.

Already miss the train?

Unless the inflation going up and another hike.

...may go back down to 3.8% or lower next mth,........ Then Feds may decide to hike for one more time this year in the December Mtg....

When cut is not my concern,........ Everybody is ready to WIN ! But of course, I hoped my SG Bank and HSBC share prices and dividends do not drop when Feds starts cutting.

I think,... Feds is reluctant to raise already !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let's see.

If I'm right,... I'll release the reasons for saying the above this evening.

When rates are cut, loans growth will start to take over the revenue-generating work for the banks. Secondly, fee income will also pick-up as investors start coming back into the equities scene with low interest rates for their fixed income instruments. These two sources will be able to offset the drop in net interest income.

I have bought my banks at adequately-low prices, and with low holding-prices, my safety margin will be there shld the share price retreats when rates are cut. This is also why,... I am reluctant to average UP even when I see there is so much potential for the banks to do well this year and in 2024.

Such in the above is my strategy to 'play' the banks.

Not in the game of predicting market moves so that would be a dumb question. But im not invested in the US stock market for 5% gains and so far ive been on a good run for years with Big Tech. You can either choose to listen or you can follow your own path but just avoid coming up with some excuse in 2024 when you see the market outperforming your 5% money market return.

Hindsight is always 20/20.. maybe he has some 2021 high stocks?

So can we play the same book as last year? We buy nvidia this year and expect the same thing to happen next year.

haha sorry a bit of a confusion there. was just replying to cyber's comment on cubalagi's "missed out" stock rally 

we can say "wahh u missed out on 2020-21 crypto boom oh wow D&O spectacular run from 2020 u didnt buy meh"

but can we really buy at the bottom and sell at the top?

so just DCA on TQQQ TMF 

I like bank of America.. it like roller coaster and reflect well with economic news

Better buy others if longterm.

My experience.

I have invested in BAC for 11yrs. The annual return is pretty low. Even buy low sell high.

Avoid BCA. Buy JP Morgan or TD or RBY. Better banks than Bank of America.

Its way overbought. There will be a price correction. That's to be expected. But this stock is a long term hold.

"Our sales to China and other affected destinations, derived from products that are now subject to licensing requirements, have consistently contributed approximately 20-25% of Data Center revenue over the past few quarters," Nvidia CFO Colette Kress said in a release.

Uncertain next Q4 that cause the price drop.

Won't expect it to have much correction with AI trend and strong growth from Nvidia. It already leave the 300 region and into support at above 400.

This stock is already beyond my expectations. Is already in profit + profit. How long want to hold.

Looks like no Santa Claus rally this year ... no happy ending, no wind behind the stock market's sails. It's all Brandon and Dowager Xi's fault.

That's not correct.

The US stock market has been on a bull run since Nov 3 FOMC day and after Powell's fireside chat on Friday, another round of buying by institutions for mid and small caps pushed the market up.

Been a great month for me as a trader in US equities and I expect more to come.

Trading by hindsight - aren’t we all geniuses in cyberspace? LOL I am sure you are a billionaire by now.

Another example of some plebian who can miraculously allocate his or her entire portfolio at the very bottom of the market cycle and sell at the absolute top.

Show us your trading statement to validate that but naturally you won't and I very much doubt you even trade US equities 

Goes to prove what a fraud you are with your boasts about being the perfect market timer.

Sideways market?   

It might go even lower but you have see this week conditions to signal go ahead after next week so I am just like you standing by to buy another round

Earnings are not the driver but the macro and geo is the current driver

I post your comment verbatim here

Earnings will be bleh and market will just go up a bit and then come back crashing down 🤦‍♀️ and it will be sideways till year end

Where is the sideways market?  Do you even read what you wrote? 

And reporting my post because I pointed out what a fraud you are goes to show what a wuss you are. 

US growth stocks will trounce dividend stocks in 2024. There is alot of money on the sidelines in money market funds. Alot of these excess liquidity will come back into the market in 2024. They wont go into dividend stocks.

has it ever live 

its been dead or zombied for the past few years

for malaysia to bull you need china to be bullish..

for china and malaysia to be bullish..you hope US also bullish and not to fall into a recession..

so in the end.. or

this is normal bursa. not dead nor alive 

I purchase few US stock through RHB many year ago. After 1/Mar/2024. Government introduce capital gain tax. How they calculate the gain tax once I sales the stock?

Can I offset with capital loss stock?

what is the definition of unlisted share?

do that means stocks not traded publicly at stock market??

What is the next deadline ?

i guess the capital gains tax  on unlisted stocks doesnt apply to us. we only traded  listed stocks

Nobody can say what will happen in future. We look at present data to gauge what may happen in future, and then we position ourselves to face the challenges 'to our advantage'.

As of now, I believe we can only try to trap the funds being remitted back to Msia to impose tax on,... but not to tax on all foreign income earned outside of Msia.

Edited by adding : In-ctry-wise, we will try to tax on all income sources as much as possible,...
