QUOTE(redken @ Oct 30 2009, 11:18 PM) KLSE is like a bottomless black hole right now. U go, u die. Its almost like recession. Forget about getting back your money, its all about damage control right now. I have a few K left in KLSE, will take the beating and cash out soon. What i hate most about KLSE other than the fake index is stinker counters. There are so many with director's sellout. F. I'm having the same issue right now. Wanting to sell - but everyday going down. The ride belongs to certain cronies/group only, now still around -20K and counting. Better luck putting in EK than KLSE

QUOTE(danmooncake @ Oct 31 2009, 12:50 AM) That's it. S&P broke below 1040.. 37pts to doomsday. What an unimportant event cause the market to shake.. Oct. Reuters/UofM Consumer Sentiment: While their view of the economy improved, "consumers continued to voice very dismal assessments of their personal financial situation. These grim financial evaluations, coupled with intentions to increase savings and decrease their indebtedness, will limit any rebound in consumer spending.

QUOTE(danmooncake @ Oct 31 2009, 02:03 AM) Loaded up another 1000 C @ 4.02. Yes, I'm greedy.  Added on October 31, 2009, 4:10 amFinal damage for the end of the month: Dow 9712.77 -249.85 -2.51%Nasdaq 2045.11 -52.44 -2.50%S&P 1036.18 -29.93 -2.81%Is this the "crash" you're expecting? maybe it is an attempt Halloween scare the market is giving us traders. Wait till next week, we'll have more fun and scary show. Since we close below 1040, I'm expecting we'll go down another leg early Monday or Tuesday.. perhaps re-test 1020 and we'll bounce up again. I'm ready for more roller coaster ride as well.  Good luck to all.. !  the crash is something to do with the rumours of interest rate, remember that posted somewhere last monday? Im seeing red sea this whole week. maybe time to relook at BGZ, MWN, TZA, EDZ, SRS etc
