Risky indeed. When you get into the boat, the boat sinks.

However, when you miss the boat, the boat keeps afloat higher and higher.

Quite true!

Definitely no at this moment, at least not this year. Most company's earning will take a beating this year, even the best company will suffer. better earn less than loss more.

Not sure why work minister never ask our PM before the announcement of toll hike! I will defenitely go against the toll hike as our government should help us in this economy situation.

Hear.. hear..


Europe green and so far US also green. Hopefully our market also green tomorrow.

Ya, hope Malaysia also green tomorrow. I hope KNM will go up too.

You bought KNM recently? KNM dropped 1 cents today.

Panamy has released its lastest Q report, accumulated 3Q of EPS is 68 cents. March 31 will be its final 4th quarter, by then some dividend can be expected.

so far how much had been given as div?

[Kuala Lumpur has 3.5 million vehicles for a population of about five million people.

"Tokyo only has 1.3 million vehicles for a populationf 20 million,” Mohd Zin said, concluding that more effort was needed to improve public transport. ]

But KL dun have enuf public transport , i would choose public transport if it's convenient, no need to find car park.

Ya lor! I bought at 0.41!

Absolutely no, FD is for emergency use 储备金 and is 棺材本for aunty/uncle, not a wise move

i agree, 储备金 and 棺材本 should not use for gambling. If u lost it, ur life may lost all together. think twice.

my 2 cents worth...

I think the crude oil factor especially in terms of flactuations are insignificant facvtor now, generally the Plantation Sector is more worried about supply and demand rather than an increasing Crude Oil price. Most biodiesel plants r prolly on the verge of closing down, ever since palm oil price hovering around Rm 2K and below.

My forecast is the price will gradually depreciate from 1800 +/- to about 1600 +/- by late Jun/July 09, being the end of the El Nina/Lila whatever its called effect over the Asia Pac region causing a dop in production. Remember there was a supply glut around Dec 08.

July 09 to Dec 09 contracts for FCPO, is going to be really tough time for plantation.Nov & Dec 09 FCPO contracts being the most severely affected.

It is only applicable to excess FD one has.

Never use some saving that is essential and needed for stock market because stock market you can't control the timing of liquidation because even though the good share you bought will go up in the long term future, but if you cannot wait for it, then it is not good at all.

No one knows how long the recession will be. It can be 1 year, can be 3 years even 5 years before any recovery in economy start to taking place.

But one thing for sure, economy won't be doom forever, economy boom and burst is always cyclical.

Don't over optimistic about stock market to recover quickly, but also don't overly pessimistic as overly pessimistic will only mean one is going to miss in taking advantage of the burst cycle.
