yongjiu, genting. ahaha. i did tell you guys to stay off that counter...even without insider news (so-called), by TA or FA alone you wouldn't touch that stock. all i can say is, expect delay and/or modifications to their IR construction. |

hey geojam, finally someone asked the question i was waiting for. hehe. yep, it's what i meant when i asked, what do you want the money for. 'cos, most of us will have hazy ideas of wanting this and that, but if you were to exactly quantify it, then, you'll realise that it's actually achievable, in terms of discrete dollars, and how much you need to make; and people don't need that much money to be 'happy', as defined by the attainment of desires. ok, back to work, cheers all! :) |

hi media2368, internet brokerage some of the guys here will help you out with; that's not in my knowledge, but for live brokers (that's my term for them), in addition to hughsh's post: commission charges: min $45 per trade currently or 0.5%, whichever is higher (so trade above 9k each time more worth). in addition there's like plus 10%, 5%, 3% etc charges. A figure that works for me is to add 1.2% to my buy price (assuming above 9k each time), have found that this about equates to brokerage charges. alt is to take 2c. rather on the high side but i prefer overestimating costs than overestimating profits. |

nice to see all the replies here. :) misery loves company...why not let's be positive instead, and be grateful for what we have? the grass is always greener on the other side, after all. i've backpacked cambodia, laos, etc. if you've seen the lives of some of them there, then really, we have it good. just that it's boring, so hey, that's what the market is for! :)))) |

muah ha, oh yeah chippie, it's the perfect time to offload dud stocks. haha. hm. wonder if we suffer bad karma for that tho... not to mention the crazy prop stocks run...niama....really beyond reason man... but hm. i think speculation is good only when others are speculating, and you're calm, so that you can take advantage of the situation. hehe. |

*grin* hybridvestor, doesn't everyone want to be right? haha. aiyah, all we're doing is guessing. we're mostly preempting on hope or fear. but that's not right. let's just see what is. too much speculation alr. bad for accurate viewing of the market. |

awchyeong, signals mixed for this stock. On lag indicators it's actually going to reach a sell signal soon. its breakout was act on oct 25th onward from 12c. this is its fifth wave already; would advise not to buy, unless its fundamentals are that good? if you must pick a penny to buy; my vote goes for EDMI. For FA reasons alone, if not the fact that it is cornered and getting fun to play. haha. Vested in that. Go see the thread on it; victorian has made an excellent post there. :) |

hey awchyeong, apologies missed this post since i usually don't read on counters i'm not vested in. anyhow, ChipES has been on a TA downtrend since the time i predicted the sell for you. but in this kind of market, haha, even dud stocks will go up. will find koh brothers thread and post that there. alanwong; construction stocks shot up on news after lunchtime that their profit last year was (i can't remember how many) billions, and expected to do well this year. |

hey shplayer, i never took any offence at all! :) in fact i thought it was a good question. hehe. ok, i like playing the market for all its permutations (think i mentioned it in another thread somewhere). but realistically, most people have no choice but to play the market--for the ordinary singaporean, if you count that CPF alone is not enough to retire on, and that everything is going up except your wages, and banks' interest rates really, really suck. then, really, there's no choice but to play, is there? but of course, gotta choose stocks wisely. i try to go for best odds. like if i were in the casino, i play only baccarat. not because i particularly like it, but because it gives the best odds in the house (except for that irritating banker 6 commission thing). It's pure logic for me. added bonus that i happen to like playing the market--cos of the patterns and trends. and em. i never thought of 'noble sentiment' actually. to me, it's just what is, and what i havta do. scotty, absolutely nothing un-noble with wanting to pay for your own house and car! better than depending on mummy and daddy to do it, isn't it? ;) |

nah, i believe we each hold our own future in our own hands. :) i haven't been telling much really. and yea, if i want to, i can track any one of you down. rest assured i won't do that tho. haha. hm. i don't think i've ever really known 'normal'. that's why i'm an elf. haha. but back to gold: its price rose today too. a bit odd when you consider that dow's shooting up tonight too. |

relax people...if the bull's here you just ride it.. all the more, must keep cool now. :) hm. do be careful not to rush into whatever analysts recommend as a buy tho. on FA terms, a lot of stocks are simply not worth that much. so that this way, even if a correction does come, at least the fall will not be that bad. |

yongjiu...early 'cos i gotta go to work. haha. my profession. hm. i have no official title or job description. guess you could say i'm a weapons and tactics specialist. i'm one of those kids hired by the s'pore govt to work unseen and deep in the corridors of power. elves get their own private rooms, free rein to scope any project, do anything etc. No budget limit, no authority to report to except the heads themselves. We're hired solely for our ability to predict the moves of others; to see patterns where no one else sees them, and to pre-empt. Only one aim: to outthink, outsmart and outmaneouvre foreigners. can't say any more, sorry. |

just a general observation here... gold is normally viewed as an alternative investment, your traditional 'safe haven'; so it is a very useful gauge of investor sentiment as well. If dow/nasdaq rises, but gold does as well, it is your signal that investors actually lack confidence in the rising US market, and have been shifting funds to the 'haven'. broader, sustained US market drop will have implications on singapore; longterm, i'd expect Asia to decouple from the US, perhaps one day we might even trade inversely, but not so soon. |

belated thanks to you for all your work here, victorian. :) I had missed EDMI when i was weeding through the SGX list at end last year for this year's FA buys (since was looking at dollar plus stocks only); after your post i went to find out more abt it, so vested. :) |
