Market View 30 January 2013

I was chatting on Skype with 2 ladies yesterday
afternoon and we discussed on various market
issues. You see, although it seems like the sky
is so clear and the coast is clear, with the US
and Europe 's crisis and problems somehow
suddenly all disappeared and not mentioned
nowadays. It is really like that rubbish is all sweep
under the carpet until one fine day that carpet
can no longer contain anymore. There are skeleton
in many countries closet but all they can do is
hope that nobody find out yet. US market is in a
5-year high right now but the crisis talk will surface
somewhat and somehow, then we shall see the
market retrace to where it should be. Market always
reacted very strongly and erratically to the extreme
side with every good and bad news.

We can also see that many stocks, the mid-cap and
lately, the recent IPOs are facing downside profit-taking
action. It can only get more obvious as we head
towards the CNY. The Snake or is it the Serpent may
want to show its prowess immediately so be careful
not to be hit by its deadly neurotoxic bite.

Enter any position with a Cut-loss level & Trailing Stop,
and Please practice strict Money(Risk)-management.
If you don't like what you see in the market,
simply don't trade.

If you have Skype, and would like to chat with me about
stocks and all others, you can ring me at my
email address: stocklobang@yahoo.com
I have currently a couple of members skyping with me
everyday,and they are having good trading results.
See their comments here:

As usual,
Stay Alert but be Aggressive too.

Market View 29 January 2013

Frankly, I have nothing much to add today as
the micro-penny are still in the limelight everyday
and they are the "mainstay" of the daily trading
volume nowadays. I have to state again that
I am not interest in all these stocks so please
refrain from asking me about them. Ask me
stocks >30cts is still Ok to me.

Next, please store up some "financial reserve"
for an in-coming IPO which I "overheard" will be
listed before the CNY. The stock is Overseas
Education Limited and it has such a simple
business model that I believe majority if not all
of the readers will be greatly interested.
To read up on the IPO, go to MAS OPERA

Oh ya, I was rather surprised at the By-election result

andI believe many people also never see it coming too.

Without reading too much into the result, I can only say

that people's voice has speak again and it is likely that

we may see a clearer Blue sky in years to come.

The government really need to know that

水能载舟，亦能覆舟.

Value Investing Summit 2013

I attended the Value Investment Summit over the
2 days during the weekend. It was an eye-opener
and I even contracted the flu virus, that is why I
wasn't able to write a Market View this morning.
After a few more hours of sleep and a few tiny
white pills, I am back with energy and vigour.
I hope I am not being arrogant or naive but I
certainly realised that I know many many things
and my knowledge is quite substantial. On a
humble ground, I have to say that I did learn
a few things from the Summit. If I can speak as
eloquently as some of the speakers and deliver
as fluently and forcefully, then maybe I can also
conduct a course of my own. Sadly, I can't hold
a candle to these masters and I have to continue
to provide timely and helpful Market View to all the
readers. I hope that the readers will benefit from it too.

During the Summit, there are speakers talking about
Value Investing for most of the time, but there are also
a session on Property Investing and somehow on
Chinese Metaphysics, Fengshui and Ba Zi as well.
It is quite an event and the main speaker of the event,
Ken Chee, from the organiser, really strike a chord
with me. Behind his short and plain body frame, packs
a powerful and sincere character. Although he likes
to joke around while presenting with his Value Investing
concept and knowledge, I believe that the audience should
still learn and gain from his speech.

Oh ya, I recalled that I will share with members on what
stocks was mentioned in the summit. Ok, there are 4
stocks that Ken shared on stage but sadly only 2 of them
are local stocks which had surge too much in my opinion.
He mentioned ARA, Super Group, and 2 Malaysia companies,
Hartalega and Malaysian Bulk Carrier. Do your own
homework and do take note that I am with the ideas that
the 2 local stocks have already move up a lot and maybe
even ahead of the fundamental ground right now.

Next, I would like to hear from the members who attended
the Summit. If you attended and have any comments about
the event, please write me an email or Skype me.
I will feedback to the organiser if any.

Ok, I believe that the readers will be asking whether I
will be attending the Value Investment Summit 2014 which
by the way was announced at this year event that will
be on 18-19 January 2014. Well, I don't mind spending
money to attend such event as I still believe that there
will be something that I don't know or worth a mentioning again.
Sometimes, if you can take away an useful concept or
idea that will stay with you for years or benefit you instantly,
then it is well worth what you pay for the ticket already.

Market View 25 January 2013

Ok, I normally don't talk about politics in this
blog but since a couple of readers asked for
my view in Skype, I will just say a few words.
It has always been 成王败寇 in the politics
arena and if I can gather majority votes, I don't
really need to fulfill what I have saying in the
rallies or to the press. Four years later, I will say
the same thing, and there will be the same batch
of gullible people who will believe every words that
I say and promise and I will win with majority votes
again. Some people are just plain resistance to
change and will stick to the same "pattern" forever.
Unless the mindset is changed, the stormy weather
will prevail. It should and deserved to be a close
fight between 2 parties but 2 jokers disturb the
situation and the result have already been casted.
When a party don't even have an assembly ground
for supporter to wait for the result and support the
party, I read it as a sign of admitting defeat.

Next, I received many questions on STX OSV yesterday
when all the answers can be found in the SGX
announcement. If one is even that lazy and reluctant
to search and look at the obvious No. 1 news source,
then sadly you shouldn't be dealing with stocks.
For the record, it is a real bargain for STX OSV to be
trading at such low price right now. If you have a
investing horizon of a couple of months, then this stock
should really be in your basket. Take note that the fundamental
of the stock did not change, just that it has a new Italian
boss. In fact, I believe STX OSV will benefit from this
change as it can expect to receive deals from the new boss.

Market View 24 January 2013

The market rally marched on yesterday as most
stocks ended in the green zone. A few readers
asked me in Skype when will the current rally
end. I can only reply that the musical chair will
eventually stop then we will see who is the last
one holding the baby. For the time being, if you
are still entering stocks, stick to those whose
momentum is still intact and strong. Keep a tight
cut-loss level and be prepared for the unexpected.
That is all that I can say right now. I can see that
some stocks are showing clear signs of weakness,
but the rotational interest just keep the flame going.

Market View 23 January 2013

Ok, for the record, I am turning cautious bull
on the stock market right now. We have a
wonderful rally since the beginning of the year
and the steam is gradually running out. The
trading volume is dropping and weaknesses
are being seen in the mid-cap and even the
pennies. I smell water in the air and what
we are having now maybe the calm before
a devastating storm. Moreover, I believe that
Dragon will spring a nasty surprise before it
hands the duty to the Snake in a couple of weeks.
If you are sitting on a good profits right now,
it will be prudent and wise to take some cold
hard cash in hand.

For the year, I am still sticking to my view that
we should have a great trading record. But I
feel that February maybe a month that the
bulls take a well-deserved break. We will have
many more corporate results coming and it
will down to only selected rotational stock interest.

Oh ya, before I forgot again. From what I gather,
the Value Investing Summit this Saturday had been
sold out and the organiser is no longer taking in
ticket sales. I am going to the event and will share
with the readers what was being mentioned.

Market View 21 January 2013

We are like 3 weeks away from the Chinese
New Year and it is Red, Red and more Red
everywhere. A few readers asked me by
emails on whether we will see the same
Red in the stock market ahead of CNY.
Well, I am still positive and optimistic that the
market will do decently well this year, but
if you are only interested in this 3 weeks,
then you really have to look at the trading
volumes and look at what are the stocks that
is showing up in the Top Volume everyday.
The mid-cap are taking a break while the
micro-penny are still busking in the limelight.

We are in the progress of corporate reporting
season, and there are already some weakness
seen in some companies already. Let's see
whether there are more surprise in the pipeline.
