intact. Support at 2240 to 2300 and index should head for

2793 in coming months

There is no change in our technical view: We maintain a buyon-

pullback’ strategy. Expect the STI to pause for a breather (a

rise towards 2450 is possible before pausing) in June following

3 months of gains that started in March this year but the major

rising trend remains intact. We see near-term support at 2240

to 2300. Strong support is near the 200-day exponential

moving average at 2095. Subsequent to this anticipated brief

pause, STI should head for 2793 in coming months.

Retail sales from China and US are scheduled for release this

week. Our economist expects US retail sales to come in at +1 to

+2%, better than market consensus for a 0.5% increase. China

retail sales is also scheduled for release this year – watch Schips

consumer plays if the number surprises on the upside.STI: A pause in June but the major rising trend remains

now i dont buy4d  also ... my lastest big win with singapore pool was liverpool vs chelsea soccer match. Analysed the match alot and bet on high score ( 6-9 goals) spent 1k and win 14K and now take this money and buy stock for real investment:)

Why not buy ins...20 yrs later get back double, equal to 1 st px..put total 20k get back slightly more than 20k..like kanna 1 st px...

and on the way to buy 4-d, anything accident happen cannot claim from Singapore pool, but if buy ins can claim...

richtan ...is wise , the probability is slim..

if it involve luck, it is equal to blind chances...

might as well buy Jade and centillion like me..sure to make you $$$..

My view are opposite.. I am very positive in jan 09 to apr 09.. from may 09 i think the number look alittle stretch for most of the blue chips and property counters.. At STI 2400 dun think it will shoot to 2700 - 2800 in the near term.. Will be doing hit and run tactics and ready to short soon...

Recession now.. If commodities start to shoot to the roof.. Very worrying sign.. If oil and other commodities start to shoot up too much.. Will have a big impact on companies profitablity... Unemployment still high... Will high oil price affect recovery and affecting INVESTORS SENTIMENT. Dont know whether will slow down the recovery phases.. (My view only)

Vested in the market for long term..
