Anyone care to share their portfolio?
I've just started, and got in at the wrong time I guess Here's mine in total units (NOT LOTS) Share > Units > Purchase Price Atrium > 1,800 > 0.77 Axreit > 500 > 0.76 Cresbld > 5,300 > 0.648 HSL > 9,300 > 0.558 HUAAN > 2,500 > 0.492 Stareit > 3,700 > 0.89 After minus profit taking and some cash withdrawal I'm down 1,665 at the moment. I'll be holding on for the long run, also I think most of my shares are closer to the bottom than the top, except for Crest which I'm considering to sell off if it hits 0.58 ranges, and then hoping it'll drop back to 0.53 How about you guys? Anyone cares to share their portfolio right now? Pretty interesting and scary at the moment, my first time to get seriously involved in shares and this happens |

NYSE selling is still very broad-based with 70% of stocks posting losses.
Yup, DJIA did broke below the 8000 level, hitting as low as 7882.51. |

What make Malaysians think Cash is still King for the coming crisis is that while Singapore and many others odeli admitting recessions are in their countries. We are still in the State of Denial . We still believe we are strong, and some investors still hoping for listed companies to pay better dividends.
For coming 5 months or so, local politicians would be very busy with party election and court cases. Economy is taking a back seat. This year is the "honeymoon " year for our government. The right timing is always good when you start to judge things odeli happened, and you say that should be the ways . Like the double V shape of Dow yesterday, now you could say people could have lose 2 big opportunities by not buying at the bottoms. Basically , it is easy to talk in term of theory. And to stay invested in co like AIG can make you very poor. And to break even at US$ 50 or so, takes quite a long time. From the point of RISKS management, assets allocations and assets re balancing tend to be a more acceptable practice and preferred choice. The article seems to be outdated. You cannot keep investing in shares till the day you retire, not in term of risk planning. But who have the crystal balls to see ? What am I saying is the crisis could last for a quite a while ( or rather quite a long time ), why all the hurry to invest if it is for long term ? For short term, everyday is an opportunity for someone to gain or lose money, regardless of crisis. P/S : We are not asking investors to move to CASH now, we did that a few months ago, just before and after the election ( in Public Mutual forums ). Do not mean to flame anyone.

Now we have our target when we are cash strapped.
Hahahah.... Bottom or not I dont know but I do feel there is more to come. We havent seen this for quite a long time. There was time and time again where there have been a bottom in the last few month and yet it just keep coming. Maybe next week will recoup a little bit and then maybe some surprise will spring up again and drop like hell. |

Well, it's better to buy a beaten up blue chip stocks during a bear market and hold for 5-10 years. Isn't this Buffetology?
No one can catch the bottom, but if you buy near the bottom you can still ike out a profit rather than trying to wait for the bottom and miss out. Right now it might be very dark outside, but dawn is coming. Patience is a virtue and only those who can survive the test of time can make big money.

Folks,
This may last for quite a while. Make sure that you have ENOUGH emergency fund to survive FIRST before you invest or speculate. As for myself, I had saved 2 years worth of emergency fund to prepare for this. If you CANNOT survive, you will be forced to sale at wrong time. That will be disastrous.

That's quite true.. everyone should have at least 2-3 years of emergency fund.
For those closer to retirement, they should have got the hell out earlier. Now, we're in bear market and if they didn't re-distribute their holdings earlier, it is already too late. |

TWO YEARS seems a bit excessive. if monthly cost for a family of 3 is about RM 3000/month, 3 months is already 9K, 2 years would be 72K? Won't it better invest in other investment vehicle? |

QUOTE(! Love Money @ Oct 11 2008, 08:45 PM) The market has to correct itself. When there was plenty of mortgage fraud and the availability of easy credit, it was signs of a impending disaster. True enough, 7 trillion dollars were lost in 1 week carnage. Will U.S emerge to be the next financial superpower? That key question remains. |

There would be some personal conflicts if you are a trader and at the same time giving out advices to clients.

There won't be any conflicts since clients handle their own portfolio and manages their own money. They can choose to listen or not to listen and they are always encouraged to do their own research.
It's like people giving out advises and opinions on msg boards, you can ignore them if you think they are talking lots of crap, or you can hear them out and see things from a different perspective. This post has been edited by AdamG1981: Oct 12 2008, 02:44 PM |

QUOTE(meoo @ Oct 12 2008, 05:27 PM) Short is also a risky bet as well. What if the market recovers but one doesn't cover the short? So short risk is equal to long. It is about risk and money management if one involves in the market, be it long or short. As no one knows the bottom, nor knows it definitely will plunge down further to what level or market bounces back afterwards. Nobody can assure of it. Also in a unprecedental time like this, gov and authority may come out some drastic move. Malaysia is the classic example back 1997-1998. Suddenly KLSE shut the door for short and changed the market rule overnight, which squeezed out and hurt the short sellers a lot back then. As always don't know or nor sure about anything, FD is always the place to be. This post has been edited by cherroy: Oct 12 2008, 06:51 PM |

QUOTE(meoo @ Oct 12 2008, 02:27 AM) I beg to differ, retail investors have other methods to hedge against their portfolio abeilt a little more risky. There's why there are derivatives.Again, if one doesn't understand the risk, one shouldn't be trading or speculating in the first place including stocks.

Europe to guarantee new bank refinancing. More details in a bit.
EU reportedly to guarantee interbank lending. NEW YORK (MarketWatch)-- European Union leaders meeting in Paris are to guarantee interbank lending by issuing government securities, according to a draft statement from the eurozone summit Sunday cited by Agence-France Presse.

Credit market is closed in Japan today. There's a slight improvement in the credit market in Aussie.
Analysts are predicting Ted spread to drop from 4.34 to around 400 basis points to high 200s. |

Don't forget the Parliament is debating the Budget Bill. Najib, first appearance as Finance Minister might want to spice things up.
Added on October 13, 2008, 10:03 amWell think of it this way, when worldwide indices fell too rapidly, there will be a time it would have to rebound due to a) purchases of cheap blue chip out there that has strong fundamentals b) short covering There will be a time when extreme fear will subside.

Ya sapcres has been in my watchlist since lat week when it broke the RM1 mark. Wanted to go in this morning actually but got in late into my office and when i saw it, it was already at RM0.89..
That's why i was wondering whether is it the best time to go in.. Added on October 13, 2008, 11:48 amWell, i don't see crude oil dropping will drop further. Lowest was last week at (i think) RM76 and now it is at RM80... This post has been edited by hsiengloong: Oct 13 2008, 11:48 AM |

QUOTE(hanif444 @ Oct 13 2008, 11:47 AM) I think Sapcres earnings is intact for 2008 & 2009 as they have already booked in all their orders. The selling volume is small so I believe the selling is due to sellers of their warrants, which is due to expire in 4 months time. If warrants is so cheap, nobody would like to buy the mother with a premium in such an uncertain market. |

They don't trade Oil in Ringgit. If Oil is really in RM80/Barrel, we shall see petrol back to Rm1.50/liter or less. This post has been edited by danmooncake: Oct 13 2008, 12:02 PM |

UEMBLDR still steady at 1.40. Its demand still strong even when world market tumble, blue chip drop..
I'm wondering why Uemgroup want to buy back at 1.42. UEmGroup seems loaded and offer cash offer to buy back its other child company stock for restructuring purpose? Is there any major annoucement /plan to boost its share higher than 1.42 soon? I'm holding UEMBLDR at 1.35, still considering to accept the cash offer option. v_viper88 |

Ya, this could be the case.. But i am looking at this at the long term. Oil price will go up but not down, the way i see it. I think i'll just wait for another 10% drop before i enter... My stupid mistkae, should be US80 hehehe
BTW, any other stocks that is worthwhile to add to my watchlist?

The futures were trading up because DJIA futures were up almost 250 points before giving up gains late in the morning and as HSI briefly turns red, CI dips.
Anyone has a chart right now can see that the daily chart for CI shows a potential hammer with RSI below 20. Technical wise, it's a short term bottom. Please bear in mind that any political events here and overseas might affect the short term movement of the Composite and Futures since many traders are now trading on the news, buy on rumor ; sell on the news. Since Tokyo is closed today, we do not know exactly how the EU's actions so far is affecting LIBOR but we will find out soon enough in 5-6 hours time. Like a compressed spring, we are due for a huge rally, just make sure that YOU SELL when that time happens. FYI: FKLI October 08 closed at 946.5.

QUOTE(jvcpcv55 @ Oct 13 2008, 01:48 PM) It depends on the hedge fund clients, UT fund investors. If they are redeeming their investment, fund managers can't do anything but sell to raise cash to pay back the money to their clients which I mentioned before. Even though Pbbank is at Rm5 or RM3, if clients are redeeming their investment, fund managers still need to sell disregard what situation. It is a contagious effect now. Market fear -> equities plunge -> people fear -> sell more equities -> more fear -> people redeem UT, hedge fund -> fund managers need to sell -> market plunge further -> more fear. You need this spiralling effect to put a stop, then only market will start to stablise. But do remember, even one might be able to buy cheap, (some are still not cheap, I don't reckon Pbbank is dirt cheap even at current level, although it might start to look attractive but to say dirt cheap is still far away, overseas counterpart banks are more cheaper than Pbbank at the moment, don't mean Pbbank won't be a good buy at current level, who knows it might be bounce back later, or plunge further, nobody knows, but it definitely not at 'dirt cheap' level), the market won't bounce back quickly one, after strong technical rebound, there are long way to go for the market consolidation phase and confidence bulidng period, it takes, months and years to rebuild confidence. |

QUOTE(fergie1100 @ Oct 12 2008, 11:08 PM) Relief rally, maybe, but one should buy on rumor and sell on news. Typically after a sustained downward movement, there will be a large decrease in volume which will lead to apathy trading / congestion trading. So don't fall in love with stocks, take the profit on the table if you have. |

If only small retailers are buying, could they cause a powerful rebound ?
It is more like the Iraqi army fighting against the US bombers. This post has been edited by SKY 1809: Oct 13 2008, 02:30 PM |

QUOTE(AdamG1981 @ Oct 13 2008, 02:18 PM) DJIA futures + 333 300-500 points is more realistic figure to look at. As too rise too much, will prompt people to take profit as well as short sellers might be interested to short the market again.Added on October 13, 2008, 2:19 pmToday the day DOW Jones finally have a rally of 1000 points?? TBD...... Also. Friday, DJ has covered some loss ground of 600 points. What we need now is market stability and calming down. |

Yup, realistically that could happen as long as the credit market is unfreezing. But I am pretty sure we might even test the 7800 sometime this month again.Also.

QUOTE(dolphine_chan @ Oct 13 2008, 02:50 PM) What you all think of Aussie now? Today it seems to be pretty stable, though I hope it will drop a little bit more. It is under tremendous pressure. I don't recommend buy in large quantity or significant portion of one's portfolio, it might have room for further downside. But personally will dip a bit into it, it dropped a little too fast and drastic last week. |

RBA has hinted that it is willing to further reduce interest rate to spur growth, and Goldman Sachs today reduced the year end target of oil from 115 to 70 usd per barrel as well as several commodities prices. Since Aussie is a comdoll, expect further weakness. |

Anyway, i think when it reach to RM1.00, one can go in oledi. Seems it now reach RM0.8 ++ , it maybe has chance to go down further, furthermore the current sentiment could not give any good to this share also.

US still got 10 trillions of debts, not CASH, a long term pain.
700 billions and bank backups are just the short term pain killers. They need to do more to reform the economy. |

QUOTE(arthas @ Oct 13 2008, 11:00 PM) Nope, in my opinion not yet.This Wed and Thursday will be another critical time whether DJI will sustain this temporal rally. FYI, Wednesday will be quartely results for JP Morgan and Wells Fargo While Citigroup & Merrill will announce theirs result on Thursday (this day will be most best part as Citigroup & Merrill are badly affected by credit crisis). So be watch out. Dun over optimistic on today rally. It's just dead cat rebounce after last week big plunged. |

Over?
Nah, I think whats going on now is like video game. Enter coins to continue... someday you will stop playing as well... timing is everything. The bottom is at 0, you are not at bottom when you are not at 0. |

Dow will probably end in positive zone tonite.
But whether it is a technical rebound or long term sustained rally remained to be seen. |

QUOTE(ante5k @ Oct 14 2008, 12:53 AM) You're shorts, aren't you? Short sellers will get squeezed today. Tomorrow, Asia markets will follow with rally too esp. Japan Nikkei since they're be back from the holiday. KLSE will regain back 3.6% it lost easily. I can see PUBLIC BANK will go back to RM10! Too bad for those we didn't buy today. |

Sorry Sifu Cherroy, i guess you owe me a mamak meal when i come to KL Also. Friday, DJ has covered some loss ground of 600 points. What we need now is market stability and calming down. Dow Logs Biggest One-Day Point Gain Ever Stocks bounced back from their worst week ever with one of their best performances in history as investors cheered a global cash infusion designed to help avoid a global meltdown. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained about 950 points, or more than 11 percent. It was the biggest point gain in the Dow's history, and the biggest percentage gain since 1933. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq gained nearly 12 percent. http://www.cnbc.com/id/27166818 This post has been edited by AdamG1981: Oct 14 2008, 04:06 AM |

One question.
If there is no trading, why prices will jump on an opening with different price between closing the day before and opening the day after. |

Not that it is gonna be bad soon (well it may be).. But it's so volatile that the market is pumping my adrenaline more than watching Die Hard 4..
Plus, i think its better if i sell of more so that i can concentrate on my work.. My boss is already asking me for tips on the stock market (wonder if its a bad sign or wat!!) |

QUOTE(jvcpcv55 @ Oct 13 2008, 07:06 PM) This is base on the FKLI movement, it is now trading sideways ranging from 979 to 984. But it passes 984, i am expecting KLCI to trade high 970s to 980s. DJIA futures is helping and is showing a +200 point upon open. Today would be another smaller rally for DJIA and if so the technical correction will be completed. We will head down after these two days when the euphoria dies down. This post has been edited by AdamG1981: Oct 14 2008, 10:16 AM |

Seller will surely ask for higher price , eg. Sell @1.08 because it is speculated to be higher today base on worldwide performances. Some buyers who do not want to miss the rally may place higher bet @1.08, then his price matches the above, so you will see a jump-up opening price.

Seems like we're pretty much ignored by the rest of the world, whatever happens, we're only like marginally impacted. Initially during the DJ crash, we're least effected, and during a rally, we're the least effected too...

Yeap, fkli is still trading high, we might see CI closing higher if DJIA keeps going up.
Be very careful though, could be a trap set by big players. |

At least there i can 'dare' to buy stocks that i dont in the real world.. In virtual, you can put 100K or 1 mil or 10 mil virtual money to buy a stock, even if goes wrong, never mind also. But in real world, it is hard-earned money in stake. Totally different. |

Long term dividend is around 10 cents, this year, a little bit more. This company is indeed good for privatisation target, as NTA is around 4.30. If one privatises it at 2.00, then take those company asset to sell also can make money out of it as asset's value is much more than than share price. |

China market tumbles today, lose 2.7% on Shanghai Composite.
Watch out China market as well, as with US economy going into recession, China won't spare from it. It will hurt China as well, as US is its major trading partner (export). Those high leveraged China company due to previous boom in properties and stock market effect, might under a lot of scrutinisation. |

With various posting around, I think a lot of people common mistake and which might lead one fall into some 'trap' ie. (Not necessary mistake or trap, just unconscious not aware)
People tends to look on its previous high to justify the share price is low, which a lot of case, doesn't necessary true at all, as previous high level, might be too optimistic or unsustainable level. If really flip back longer period like 2-3 years more, some share price just fall back to previous old level only or giving out gain of the super bull run we had in 2007-2008. |

The TP is not immediate reach in 1-2 days time.. its just based on research done by CIMB for the fair value price of the stock in the coming 1-12 mths times.
In fact, last 1-2 mths back CIMB also adjusted Maybulk TP fair value to 2.50 and last friday 10/10/04 Maybulk already plunged down to RM 2.54.. Include in attachment in the reseach paper i got today from CIMB.

The most active stock, KNM finished in red and end in day's low. Overall sentiment will not look good for tomoro too unless DJIA could provide another record breaking day. This post has been edited by Ranny: Oct 14 2008, 05:05 PM |

I got 5 riding on it. ==================================================================== Malaysia`s KNM to acquire Germany`s Borsig for US$531.6 mln Kuala Lumpur (ANTARA News/Asia Pulse) - KNM Group Berhad (KLSE:7164) on Monday said it is acquiring a 100 per cent stake in German process equipment manufacturer Borsig and its group of companies for 350 million Euro (US$531.6 million).

The acquisition is targeted for completion by May this year.

QUOTE(cherroy @ Oct 14 2008, 04:46 PM) China market tumbles today, lose 2.7% on Shanghai Composite. Just to add in, USD reserve for china is 1.2 trillion. China can use that amount to buy out a lot of companies in US. Is it possible?Watch out China market as well, as with US economy going into recession, China won't spare from it. It will hurt China as well, as US is its major trading partner (export).

KNM said the cash consideration is expected to be funded through a combination of internally generated funds and borrowings. ===================================================================== 11-09-2008: Foreign funding for KNM’s Borsig acquisition by Jose Barrock Email us your feedback at fd@bizedge.com KUALA LUMPUR: Oil and gas company KNM Group Bhd has been offered an alternative funding package for its acquisition of German-based Borsig Beteiligungsverwaltungs Geselschaft mbH, JPMorgan said in a report after a meeting with the company’s managing director, Lee Swee Eng. According to the report, foreign banks are said to have offered KNM a €150 million term loan, with an interest rate of 5.5%, for the €350 million (RM1.7 billion) cash acquisition of Borsig. KNM has been looking to refinance a bridging loan it took to acquire Borsig in June, and had announced that it was in negotiations for a five-year ringgit-denominated loan at an interest rate of 8.5%. Borsig manufactures boilers, steam turbines, steam engines, locomotives and valves, among other process equipment, for the chemical, petrochemical, oil and gas, and power sectors, among others. JP Morgan analyst Lucuis Chong said that the euro loan was ideal as Borsig was a European-based asset. Since the acquisition in June, the ringgit has weakened considerably against the US dollar, a situation which generally makes purchases of foreign assets more expensive due to the currency risk element. This has bogged down the KNM deal causing its shares to weaken considerably. KNM’s shares have been heavily traded since the end of last month after Lee and his top management told analysts that the company’s earnings might be adversely impacted by higher interest expenditure brought about by a RM750 million five-year bank loan, which may have been part of its financing for its Borsig acquisition. For its six months ended June, KNM posted a net profit of RM150.4 million on the back of RM930.6 million in revenue, which marks a gain of about 50% and 77% respectively from a year ago. In its notes, KNM says that its revenue increased mainly due to the additional manufacturing capacity and job orders secured, and the results of Borsig being consolidated as of June 6 this year. KNM closed at RM1.24 yesterday. |

In a meeting with the shareholders , W Buffet's management was asked whether crisis would be over.
The management answered, only if W Buffet appointed to head the FED. I think the next US President would offer him the job. |

Just to add few point, it is a suicide act to use foreign reserves of a country to do bailout.
Foreign reserves is not 'the reserves' as normal people think of. One needs to know how those reserves is come from foreigner money from several ways 1. There is plenty of foreign company want to invest in your country eg. Malaysia, so when they want to come here to invest, they take USD come to here. But USD can't be used to do investment or business in Malaysia. So the foreigners need to go to BNM to exchange for RM. So BNM will give them RM in exchange for the USD, then those USD kept by BNM is the foreign reserves currency. 2. Company in Malaysia doing export, so money received is in USD, so company will take those USD to BNM to exchange back to RM. So BNM got USD in foreign reserves currency. So if one days, foreign investors in Malaysia want to divest their investment in Malaysia (be it stocks, business or whatever asset), then they will sell those assets, get RM, then take RM exchange to USD, then BNM will need to take USD out to give back to them. As BNM can't print USD, so they must have considerably foreign reserves currency to withstand those outflow or demand. You know what, 1997 is the classic example of the foreign reserves importance and why this crisis unfolded, simply Asian countries hit by this crisis simply has too low foreign reserves because of red hot economy was growing rapid, there was a current account deficit throughout years, i.e import > export because economy was growing rapidly, there was a lot of demand for import goods range from consumers, machinery etc. Meanwhile short term foreign debt on various countries were high. So in order to pay off those foreign, you need considerably foreign reserves to pay off. Hedge funds knew the situation, and took the advantage of it, to exploit the currency attack. Becuase if you have 100 of USD in foreign reserves, what if suddenly people take RM 500 to exchange for 200 USD (back then RM2.5/USD), then how BNM is going to face it or take out USD 200 to pay for it? The only choice was lower your currency, as if it becomes Rm5: USD, then BNM can afford already. So there is where and why currency attack by hedge fund is rampant back then. Foreign reserves can be reduced if there is significant outflow of money just like recently in Malaysia, there is about 10 billion of outflow just in recent month due to massive outflow of foreign fund exiting equities market in Malaysia. So foreign reserves currency is something that fluctuate that depends on economy situation and investment environment. It is not like ordinary people saving. |

Yup, it is flawed, just a simple illustration so that people have more understand what is foreign reserves actually. As I had seen plenty of people mis-interpret the foreign reserves issue. So a huge outflow from RM to USD can be redeem by BNM if they have sufficient 'other currency reserve' to redeem it. But you must have foreign reserves that are readily received by others to support your currency. There are plenty others currencies and gold as well in every countries foreign currency reserves. But USD is always the key as it is the worldwide tradable currency being used for most import export businesses, next will be Euro and Yen. If one always do export import businesses, then one will know almost 99% qouation, businesses are being qouted and done in USD, except in Eurozone, and Japan.

be careful of these kinds of run.. is not backed by +ve earnings news.. if poor earnings hit the news, down she goes
Added on October 14, 2008, 9:36 pmTuesday, October 14, 2008 Buying Things In Current Times Most people are not really that badly affected by the current market turmoil, because it did not happened overnight,.... almost everyone could see it coming a mile away... only those who musta, gotta have a trade every week would have been caught a bit, even then the pain would be minimal if they employed a true trader's instinct. Booyah... due to the time difference, I got to catch 10 minutes of utter crap and mayhem with Cramer on TV... booyah mah ass... What to buy... cash is king... cash is king but also cannot put into any banks... banks now failing at a higher rate than planes not leaving on time when you fly MAS. So, like my fellow bloggers said, keep in Milo tin ... but not chinese milk powder tin though, also got melashitminnie... you don't want to be using notes tainted with that shit later... you know the velocity of money... Stock indices did not follow the usual rules of performance and valuations... nobody told the stock prices that they had to follow certain rules on value ... the market is telling the rest of us that markets are made-up fantasy football game-like things... they will give 20x PER as long as there are bidders for them ... they will give the same almost zero PER if there are no buyers left... People with cash hoarding them... despite the massive capital injection by central banks, the banks themselves are also no lending them out. What about gold then, even that thing does not make sense anymore... it is telling us that its just a shiny yellow metal that does very little to our well being. In the end we need to buy food to keep us from hunger... ah, yes... food over gold other metals... next to food would be fire, back to cavemen tactics, need fire to cook some of the food and warmth, fire also allow us to spot danger, them robbers will come to steal our food... no more share scrips, no more share markets... Many readers send me private emails to answer, please don't do that, I am not an advisory service... if you have a question, make sure you don't mind sharing with the rest... Is it time to buy... if you haven't already, its an OK time to buy in three or four stages, so that you can get a good average price. Do not be lulled by the 11% jump in the US, that was on low volume on Columbus Day holiday... did you also know that the top few daily all time high spikes happened around the 30s Depression as well. Yes, they had 16% daily gains then even... sellers exhaustion... whatever you call it... its OK I think, I think the Dow will try to make 10,000 as a new base to consolidate. Same with KLCI at 1,000. Then we should spend some time at these levels. The US government saying they will buy stakes in banks is as close to ensuring that banks will lend to one another. The crisis of confidence and debilitating counterparty risk fears should subside. Its OK but do not go overboard. http://malaysiafinance.blogspot.com/search...&max-results=50 This post has been edited by meoo: Oct 14 2008, 09:36 PM |

QUOTE(cherroy @ Oct 14 2008, 08:31 PM) Just to add few point, it is a suicide act to use foreign reserves of a country to do bailout. very interesting and informative Foreign reserves is not 'the reserves' as normal people think of. One needs to know how those reserves is come from foreigner money from several ways 1. There is plenty of foreign company want to invest in your country eg. Malaysia, so when they want to come here to invest, they take USD come to here. But USD can't be used to do investment or business in Malaysia. So the foreigners need to go to BNM to exchange for RM. So BNM will give them RM in exchange for the USD, then those USD kept by BNM is the foreign reserves currency. 2. Company in Malaysia doing export, so money received is in USD, so company will take those USD to BNM to exchange back to RM. So BNM got USD in foreign reserves currency. So if one days, foreign investors in Malaysia want to divest their investment in Malaysia (be it stocks, business or whatever asset), then they will sell those assets, get RM, then take RM exchange to USD, then BNM will need to take USD out to give back to them. As BNM can't print USD, so they must have considerably foreign reserves currency to withstand those outflow or demand. You know what, 1997 is the classic example of the foreign reserves importance and why this crisis unfolded, simply Asian countries hit by this crisis simply has too low foreign reserves because of red hot economy was growing rapid, there was a current account deficit throughout years, i.e import > export because economy was growing rapidly, there was a lot of demand for import goods range from consumers, machinery etc. Meanwhile short term foreign debt on various countries were high. So in order to pay off those foreign, you need considerably foreign reserves to pay off. Hedge funds knew the situation, and took the advantage of it, to exploit the currency attack. Becuase if you have 100 of USD in foreign reserves, what if suddenly people take RM 500 to exchange for 200 USD (back then RM2.5/USD), then how BNM is going to face it or take out USD 200 to pay for it? The only choice was lower your currency, as if it becomes Rm5: USD, then BNM can afford already. So there is where and why currency attack by hedge fund is rampant back then. Foreign reserves can be reduced if there is significant outflow of money just like recently in Malaysia, there is about 10 billion of outflow just in recent month due to massive outflow of foreign fund exiting equities market in Malaysia. So foreign reserves currency is something that fluctuate that depends on economy situation and investment environment. It is not like ordinary people saving. |

OT abit:
Very interesting prophecy. Me quite surprise with this. Doesnt think of this at all. Maybe Anwar could be next PM after Najib? There is a secret in our first Prime Minister's name, Tunku Abdul Rahman. The name RAHMAN had successfully decided all the names of the Prime Ministers of Malaysia in sequence. R"A"HMAN = Abdul Razak RA"H"MAN = Hussein Onn RAH"M"AN = Mahathir RAHM"A"N = Abdullah Ahmad Badawi (Anwar Ibrahim should be the 5th Prime Minister, but since Badawi has 2As in his name, Badawi won over Anwar) RAHMA"N" = For once, we thought that the opposition leader Anwar will take over the government on 16 Sept 2008 and break the prohechy, but it didn't happen. Now the last letter N has to be Najib. The UMNO Supreme Council is now discussing about the power transition plan from Badawi to Najib. But... what will happen after NAJIB become our Prime Minister? The word RAHMAN is all used up and there is no more letter after N. Wait, there might be a NEW PROHECHY created by the name NAJIB later. "N"AJIB = Najib himself N"A"JIB = Anwar Ibrahim NA"J"IB = Khairy Jamulludin... or maybe not. courtesy: talkandshare.com This post has been edited by dreams_achiever: Oct 14 2008, 10:25 PM |

QUOTE(David83 @ Oct 14 2008, 10:46 PM) SELL SELL SELL and LOCK in the PROFITS now (for shorts)! It is only natural for profit takers to take some off the table since DJIA has increased 900+ points yesterday. I see DJIA may back down 200 pts and settle there, before moving up or down based on earnings and other news..for the rest of the week.. but I doubt DJIA will give back the entire 900 pts by weekend. Today, US Johnson and Johnson has guidance up this quarter, but Pepsico has guidance down. Even soft drinker makers earn less, that means across the board, we can expect to see more bad news on earnings later. Meanwhile, govt across the world already committed to put more confidence into the banking systems, it will take some time to unclog this mess. For investors here.. time to find those good value stocks and buy on the dips. This post has been edited by danmooncake: Oct 14 2008, 11:02 PM |
