while the Asia markets look towards the DOW for direction...vice versa...the US markets also look for confidence in the Nikkei, Shanghai, Asia regional markets too...so hopefully one brings up the other in momentum....upwards of course.. |

So....keep the positive mood??? That's is possible if BB and majority of investors thinks alike. Hope ASIA react otherwise and Europe and US follow suit instead of vice versa. Cheers. |

Huat Well said!!! US has been bankrupt for years. Yet it is still considered the most powerful nation and the greenback is still the most tradable and supported currency. What a paradox! |

No need to worry..US has been a bankrupt country for years and US dollar keep dropping that some central bankers may consider selling the dollar..what;s the subprime loan is like a drop in the ocean compared to US's monthly deficit..so don't worry unnecessarily..correction is healthy..means no crash..but the bull will continue |

With the DOW down by another 200 plus points, sentiments is badly affected. Moreover, when the bull is running wild in the past few months, speculators are "gambling" from 10 - 20 lots to 100 - 200 lots or even in thousand lots with the promise of quick bucks. Contra players will be hit hard as they have no holding power to pick up their orders. They will be force to sell at a BIG discount esp. since market now is moving down. With that, those trading in margin is the next being affected due to margin call, top-up or risk being forced sell. They will add to the spin-off downward. Further, shortist will come out in full force gaining a Profit out of it. Was asked once, not worry that you might lose out on the profit by selling so early???? Well, believed there is always two side to a picture. Likewise.... Doomsday..... not necessary. From any negative outcome there is always positive aspect from it. From observation, this time round (esp. from SJ forum), noticed many investors are sitting at the fence waiting for Great Singapore Sale and parking their fund in the banks. Time is ripe, not necessary, as this time round, seems more like Global Sale rather than one stop S'pore. End of all, always do your research and risk analysis. Cheers

I think if one is not out of the market yet by now, it is better to hang on to their stocks, ride out the storm and wait for the rebounce... unless one is on contra. If the stocks are fundamentally sound, it will recover in a matter of time (weeks, may be a month at most) Cutting loss in the mist of a crash is throwing away good $$$$ becoz buyers will not wait and buy at 1 or 2 bids below opening price. These sharks will be waiting at least 10-20 bids below opening price. Just my personal humble opinion... |

Volatile market meaning two camps of people betting on the different directions. So in a day, there will be losers and winners for both camps. If everyone stay out of action, then it will be calm. But this is impossible... |

I think there will be plenty of extra long tail dragon fly dojis in tomorrow's EOD. If one is daring, one can short in the morning and cover back long later in day by ratio of 1:2. Example short 100 lots and cover back 200 lots?( the extra 100 lots in recovering is consider as bargain buy for long). How???? |

yes MayYing...i agree on your point that it is human psychology on the panic selling and greed buys...at different point of times...sometimes it just got into our heads that we buy/sell along with the crowds...(just follow)... on the other side of story...just need to comment that like on the financial websites and newspapers...there are professionals who take different views too...one could be totally opposite of another...Bull vs Bear...seeing is believing and time will tell... |

July 27 2007: 6:38 PM - "So far we have no reason to believe this is anything more than a normal pullback in a midcycle bull market slowdown," said Doug Sandler, chief equity strategist at Wachovia Securities. "I think all you really need is some green on the screen and people will want to jump in." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jul 27, 7:28 PM - WASHINGTON (AP) -- The economy popped out of its rut this spring and grew at the strongest pace in more than a year, giving President Bush something to crow about. On Wall Street, the GDP report failed to ease investors' fears about housing. The Dow Jones industrial average tumbled 208.10 points on Friday. One day earlier, the index suffered its second biggest drop of the year, plunging by 311.50 points. The culprit: investors' heightened anxiety that troubles in the housing and home-mortgage markets could spread. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson called the market turbulence a "wake-up call" to investors to re-examine their degree of risk. The economy's fundamentals, he stressed, remain solid. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jul 28, 2:56 AM - Still, he said investors shouldn't overreact to the moves, in part because of the gains stocks have logged this year. Before Thursday's decline, the Dow was up 10.6 percent for the year, while the S&P had gained 7.04 percent and the Nasdaq 9.64 percent. "You look at a 300-point Dow day and it seems like a big day but from a percentage viewpoint it's not a big move," Frederick said. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 28th Jul : Thailand calls for global cooperation after Wall Street tumble (BANGKOK (AFP) - - Thailand, the epicentre of the 1997 economic crisis, on Saturday called for global cooperation to cope with financial volatility following a regional stock sell-off sparked by Wall Street losses. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 28th Jul : BANGKOK - The International Monetary Fund said on Saturday it saw no immediate risks of a financial crisis for Asian economies hit in recent months by a heavy influx of global capital. IMF chief says Asian economies stronger than in 1997 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What does all these means? PANIC SELLERS! Human bought it upon themselves right?? .. so pls do not panic sell! |
