Thanks for the comments. It is indeed true for half cup rule. If it goes 3000 points for STI it would rebounce super fast, around 3300 now it is not that bad.... The general markets might be going down. But some who are good at day trade or good at mid-term via TA and fundamentals will make... Anyway, best fear is worst buy, have experienced lots of time.
The big brothers / big investors are playing some tricks also to shot to drive down the market for bargain buy. And then buying up again in short while. Most usual fund managers have quotas, only some fund managers don't go for short term.
Watch out for good news soon. Bad market news are coming to an end.
there is no such things as bad or good news for the market...it is all in the mind of individuals (half empty or half full glass)....we listen to market, not to the individuals or media, and not even to ourselves......good luck :)
expect to rebound?? provided no more bad news & oil < usd90. it will take another 2-3mths(min) to recover. i think it's time to go fishing, i mean real fishing, to refresh/energise myself back again.
certainty is back to market and recovery will start from 26th November 2007 till 14/18 January 2008....buy on any dip for recovery as market will try higher high (rather than lower low from 15th Oct - 23rd November, and higher high for 23rd August - 15th October)....as always said, market will be the best judge for our call (see now around 3300 plus and in 14/18 January 2008 the index)....good luck :)
Ｔｈｅ ＵＳＡ subprime thing is causing problem and global market slowdown. But it is good in long term as China growth and other countries can be rationalized and not overheated so fast. Also banks are making other money other than subprime like deposit and savings and they have always provision for bad debts. So long if they are running biz still the subprime is already factored in... China's underground banks activities is being hit quite a while. So markets very soon coming up...In fact Hang Seng up today...
THE worst fear is the best buy for mid-term to long term... Cheers...
Hulbert appears to be contradicting himself: read the other articles abt insiders' bullishness, bull/bear sentiment and gold.
traditionally gold will move opposite the stock market, since when markets crash, there's a flight to safety to gold, which is traditionally perceived as a safe haven, esp when USD is weak. The guy's saying gold is a temp retracement, long term up. the guy's also saying dow theory is sell, yet:
"Corporate insiders' recent behavior suggests that recent weakness is a mere correction within an ongoing bull market and not the beginning of a major bear market."
Like, huh? If in two different articles, one predicts an up, and the second calls for a down, then end conclusion is: he's always right.
LOL. moral of story: never believe all you read, follow market itself.
Overall market volumes are getting really low. This leads me to believe that the big boys are staying away from the market for the time being and the retail investors are the ones getting clobbered.
It's as good as going to test 3,200 again after the steep climb, down -91.07 to STI 3,347.20 pt (Just a reminder: 5-Oct-2007, the climb has been rather steep, so the down side is oso equally as steep).
