Market View 18 January 2013

I wasn't not available yesterday morning so
there wasn't any Market View.
After the initial few days of craze, the market
had sort-of back to normal and many stocks
are taking a deserved breather now. It is a
perfect market condition and I expect the
winner stocks to be back in action again.
This is a time to monitor them closely and
watch for the rising trading volume coupled
with the price actions.
I will be back to full action next Monday.

I will be back to full swing next Monday and all the
issues will be resolved this week and I have nothing
to pull me back. Stay tuned.

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.
Audentes Fortuna Juvat !!

Market View 16 January 2012

The signs are still there.
The Top Volume is still pretty much dominated
by the micro-penny and the pennies. Those
used-to-be-hot quality mid-cap had been push
further back down the line. I noticed the below
mentioned sight based on 14th January closing
figures: YZJ was at the 31th, Cosco at 39th,
Ezra at 43th and Genting at 52th. Yesterday,
YZJ was at 18th, Noble 25th and Genting 28th.
I am not comfortable that the micro-penny
are taking the limelight now as frankly I don't
trade them at all and I am jealous (haha, joking).
Also, this usually means that many retailers are
being lured to the market right now, and I can only
imagine what will happen to the unaware and clueless
when the craze is over. Then we shall see how many
bodies there are lying motionless and lifeless.

I will be back to full swing next Monday and all the
issues will be resolved this week and I have nothing
to pull me back. Stay tuned.

No Market View today

Nothing much to add today and I am in
a rush to be out very soon.
Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish!
I should be back in days.

Market View 14 January 2013

The focus for today will unavoidably be the
property counters after another cooling measures
by the government were out last Friday.
If you have been reading the blog for long, you
will notice that I seldom talk about the property
counters other than the China's Yanlord which
had performed relatively well. I am not really a
big fan of the local property stock and arena,
although a fall of reasonable scale is pretty
welcomed by me. But I believe that any reaction
to the property stocks today will be sharp but
somehow short. As long as the stock market continues
to be buoyant and vibrant, the profits and money
made will likely flow into the properties again.
Somehow, our nation is obsess is property owning,
investing and even speculation with the scarcity
of land and living space. To be frank, any cooling
measure won't mean much to the cash-rich investors.
In fact, it will become cheaper for them to snap up
well-placed property at a further discount.
Guess what, the same can be applied to the stock
market as well. It is all about the utlisation and putting
the money to work to the max.

I will have another busy day today and will not
be present in Skype. I have a shock of my life when
I received an email over the weekend from a concerned
reader asking whether I was involved in any court
case and have to attend court hearings when I am
absent in Skype. I had a good laugh with my wife
and I can assure the readers that I am a law-abidding
citizen. I am just being tied down with some personal
issues and it should be over in a matter of days.
Lastly, to the reader who sent me the email, I believe
it will be more beneficial to focus on the Money section
rather than various court case reports happening now. 8-)

Market View 11 January 2012

Once again, it was mentioned in ST that the
STI is at a 2-year high from the recent strong
surge. Also, in the previous page, DBS Private
Bank CEO, Mr Lim Say Boon, stated that "Stocks
will be year's top performers", which I agreed and
also highlighted it in the blog days ago. He also said
that "A correction is probably due now, as we've
seen quite a run-up. But I think prices will grind
higher in the course of the year." I sounded the
caution days ago and although can still be in the
market right now, be vigilant and prepared for any
reversal in the pipeline.

I have been rather busy with personal matters
and issues, so seriously, I have not been making
as much contra and intra trades as I wanted.
Fortunately, I called for a strong Buy during last
October to December period, therefore I have also
accumulated a decent amount of stock holdings.
I even stated that the readers will regret not taking
an action during last October and I have readers telling
me "I Should Have" again. I can only say.....
The Rest is History.
Give me some time to settle my matters and I will
be back with a vengeance. For the Mentor Group
members, as per what General Douglas MacAuthur
once said, "I shall return..."

Market View 10 January 2012

A reader asked me yesterday what do I got to
gain by sharing in the blog. I told him whenever
I share, the readers only got to read it once,
but I got to learn it many times. It further reinforce
my knowledge and belief of what I learn from
Mr Market over the years of interacting with him.
I went on to give an example that we all will relate
during our schooling days. I am sure that regardless
which subject or topic that you attend, the lecturers
will give out notes. Some people only study the notes
and go for the exam. Some bought the recommended
textbook and study further. Some read and study beyond
the syllabus of the course material, textbooks.
Yes, the one who study the most may not be the one
to score the best in the exam, as the questions may
all be covered by the notes handled out. I call that being
exam-smart but guess who will be the one to really benefit
in the long-run.

Treat my Market View as just notes and it is really up to
the individuals to fulfill their own hunger and desire to
really learn more about Mr Market. I read a lot of books,
both on and off the stock market/trading/investing and
sometimes, I feel that I read too much, but when I talk
and share with the friends and relative, you should
see the look on their faces. That keeps me going....

ST finally highlighted the penny stock mania that
is happening currently and also sound a caution
to the readers today. Well, I have stated my view on
the micro-pennies run-up and just look the trading
volume of some of it can really spoke me to other
stocks in my other watchlist immediately.
Am I already all out of the market at this time?
No, I am always in the market with some transactions
and always alert to the slight turning and reversal
of the market action. I guess it is call the Instinct.

Market View 9 January 2013

I have nothing much further to add to recent
view that market should be heading to a short
and temporary breather. My bullish view on the
2013 market remains and I still don't see anything
that will derail the market as yet. It is totally
perfect normal that the market is subjected to a
profit-taking action after the recent strong surge
and it will only recover and charge back stronger
than before.

Oh ya, if the readers are still interested in the
Value Investing Summit 2013, there are still tickets
available. The price now is 199 per ticket for the
2-day event which is still a $50 discount than the
normal price. You have missed the early-bird discount,
but it is better than to late than never. I saw that there
is still the offer price for the 2nd ticket bought and this
New Year Deal will only last till 13th January and I
expect the organiser to increase the price after that.

To me, the current surge will end very soon and it
will be interesting to see who have been swimming
naked and who will be the last one holding the baby.
