Market View 30 April 2009

Ok, so stocks surge up high yesterday,
but is it a one-off or will the momentum
continues?

Yesterday's surge maybe a pent-up mood
by the traders in the market (a rebound).
The Swine Flu is not getting better, in fact,
it is getting worse as I writing now. WHO has
raised the current level of influenza pandemic
alert from phase 4 to 5, with 6 the highest in the scale.

Yes, we are prepared for any incoming into our
country, and we may suffer only "mild disease",
but it is still going to impact the world as a whole,
and there is no escaping it.

From what I gathered from fellow traders and
friends, there are quite a number of "naked short"
executed by the "shorties" on Monday and Tuesday,
hoping that the market will get worse on T+4,
and they will pocket big profits when SGX buy-back
for their "naked". They may or may not get what they
desired, and it depends on what stock did they naked
shorted, but if the market were to surge up in the
coming days, we will see all these shorties entering the
market to push up the stocks in an attempt to
minimise their losses. It will be an interesting scene
to watch on next Monday and Tuesday trading.

Market will still be weak, as the fears and worries are
still in the market, and it will curb the momentum from
going stronger, but certain Hot stocks in the news will
still be volatile and heavily traded, like Straits Asia, KS Tech,
Raffles Education.

Since today is the last trading day of the week, I will be
taking a cautious but nimble view at today's trading.
I will be concentrating my trade on the Hotstocks: Ezra, Cosco,
Straits Asia, Indo Agri, Noble, NOL, Olam, SembMarine,
Yanlord & Uniasia, Raffles Edu, Midas, Swiber.
Be cautious, and stay in the sideline if you want,
and take a super-long weekend break for all
the recent "labours".
Happy Labour Day!

As usual, enter a position will a Trailing Stop,

If you don't like what you see in the market,
simply don't trade.

Market View 29 April 2009

Ok, what else can I say?
The Swine Flu worries and fear had swept
across the world markets, and the indexes
and stocks are sliding down, and rightly so.
But one got to wonder why did our market
& Uncle Sam only dropped teeny-weeny points,
while rest of the Asia and Europe markets
reacted more drastically?

Now that we have raise our alert level to "yellow",
and MM Lee said that we are prepared for the
Swine Flu from our experience from SARS,
and we got all precautious in place, our market
should at least take a break from the 2 days'
slide. Nevertheless, Stay Healthy, don't need
to panic now. Life goes on as usual, just be prepared
for any happening.

Yes, sentiment will still be very weak, and any
bad news on the Swine Flu from aboard and within
will once again cause sellings across the boards,
but I believe investors may have started to nip-up
some good fundamental stocks which will be the
first to react up once the coast is clearer.
The market will start to move up before the Swine
Flu is "officially" cleared, as it always move ahead
of any news in anticipation, so you may, just only may,
miss the boat again if you wait, wait, and wait for
the clear sky.

Stocks will open weak, or neutral, but it is likely the selling
will not be that Fast and Furious, unless we have
bad news coming in. I will be cautious in trading today,
and will stick to those in the green, or in the news.
Stay on the sideline if you want.

I will be nimble for any quick trades, if possible, and
concentrating my trade on the Hotstocks: Ezra, Cosco,
Straits Asia, Indo Agri, Noble, NOL,Olam, SembMarine,
Yanlord & Uniasia, Raffles Edu,Midas, Swiber.
We just may see more green leaves today....

Market View 28 April 2009

Our market index STI closed at a "beautiful"
1818 yesterday, and most of the stocks suffered
and slide down due to the Swine Flu concerns,
and World Economy worries, mainly Uncle Sam.

I am not sure if you remembered what happened
during the 2003 SARS period, but I certainly do.
Our market was down and weak after the 2000
Tech Bubble burst, and it is exactly the SARS crisis
that revived the market and propel it up all the way
until the recent Subprime issue in Uncle Sam.

This time, we are having the Swine Flu crisis, and
the market will magnify the effect, and many stocks and
the index will once again take a hard beating,
as panic selling is done by worried and clueless investors
and retailers. But this is exactly the Best time to
pick up good stocks, because once the crisis is over,
and it will be over, we are going to have a great rebound.
If you have entered into the market in 2003 SARS period,
you should have more than 100% gain in some stocks
and the index too.
Take note that, if things can't get any worse, it got nowhere
to go, but UP.
I see history repeating itself yet again.....

Nevertheless, take good care of your health,
and be prepared for the Flu to arrive at our
homeland, as we are in a global village,
and it is simply too easy for the Flu virus to get
carried to anywhere in the world.

Yesterday saw the only green leaf in a big
red pool of flowers, Olam, and it is likely to be in
focus in the next few trading sessions.
We may see some stocks fallen down the $1 mark,
and it is a great chance to trade them again,
but only when the north wind is blowing, if you
are cautious.

I will be cautious and concentrating my trade on the Hot
stocks: Ezra, Cosco, Straits Asia, Indo Agri, Noble,NOL,
Olam, SembMarine,Yanlord & Uniasia, Raffles Edu,Midas, Swiber.
At the time of writing the blog, Straits Asia is taking a trading
halt, and it should be a significant news coming out.
The palm plantation stocks maybe in focus again today,
as Credit Suisse raised the target of Indoagri and Wilmar to
$1.15 and $3.84 respectively, and the surge may happened again
after what happened after Goldman Sachs upgraded them recently.

There may still be panic selling around the market
today, but we are likely to see more greens on closing.
If you are clueless what to trade today, then simply
wait for clearer direction, or trade light on the green leaves.

As usual, enter a position will a Trailing Stop,
and Please practice strict (Risk)Money-management.
If you don't like what you see in the market,
simply don't trade.

Market View 27 April 2009

This week, we only have 4 trading days,
as we are rewarded with a "Labour Day" holiday
on friday, and a super-long weekend is on the line
for many.


Seriously, I don't have a clear-cut view of this week's
trading. In my heart, I hope for stocks to drop for
one week, and Uncle Sam and STI to continue to
slide down the scale. But in my heart and chart,
I am looking at some stocks that are still strong in
momentum and should perform well this week.
Take note that any bad corporate result/data
from Uncle Sam and local will dictate how our
market will move.

Also, keep a watchful eye on the swine flu that
is on its way to spreading around the world.
If this flu gets worse, and many people get inflected,
and if it finally touchdown in Singapore, we will have
a great issue to deal with, as it will be another SARS
period for us again.
Stay healthy, and get prepared.

For this week and today, I will be concentrating my bullets
on the Hot stocks: Ezra, Cosco, Straits Asia,Indo Agri, Noble,
NOL, Olam, SembMarine,Yanlord & Uniasia, Raffles Edu,
Midas, Swiber.
I will be fighting light battles with them unless I saw great
buying support and north wind blowing hard.
Nevertheless, I still very much welcome any powerful
forced-selling and/or "profit-taking"exercises" being
carried-up by the Houses.
Come on! Show me what you got!
Sell all you want, I can simply don't join in the market.
It is the "sitting" that makes me the money.
