Wishing ALL best of LUCK n safe always at all times of the mkt ...
Just leave it to the AMERICANS.
DOW was down a scary 666 pts. Yet AMZN, the most expensive giant plc that made its owner the Richest man in the entire world, was up a handsome 2.87% today with PE 232 times.
TRUMP IS GOING TO PUMP USD1.5 TRILLIONS (RM5.8 TRILLIONS) FOR USA ROADS, BRIDGES, FREEWAYS (HIGHWAYS IN MALAYSIA), AIRPORTS & SEA PORTS
THIS KEYNESIAN DOCTRINE WILL CAUSE BOOM IN DEMAND OF EVERYTHING
See how I wrote about US Trip in 1999:
(((Since the US is no longer competitive, they fiddled with low interest rates to promote growth by cheap credit. Here, let us share our US Hired Car Experience. One Day we rented a US made car for a day trip to Hoover Dam & Lake Mead.
We found out to our amazement the low quality of the US made car. You see, the automatic window on the driver side cannot close properly. Even the Malaysian made Proton Saga is better than the US made car. And US put the first man on the moon?)))
Further comments (Feb 3rd 2018)
For 20 years I drove on the left side of the road. For the first time after driving for 20 years I drove on the right side of the road in USA.
One Police car saw me turned into the wrong lane twice! Then watched us as we kept to the right side of the road.
In Malaysia you keep left. But in USA you keep right!
Ha! The drive to Lake Mead & Hoover Dam (Or Boulder Dam as Robert Kuok wrote in his Memoir) was a terrible 2 lane kampung road.
NO WONDER DONALD WANTS TO IMPROVE ALL THE INFRASTRUCTURES OF USA BY A MASSIVE RM5.8 TRILLIONS
aiinvestor wage growth -> improved inflation outlook -> US treasury yield rise -> bullish USD -> bullish USDMYR -> good for Malaysian export-oriented stocks 03/02/2018 13:53
MYR is getting stronger la..what have you been smoking...the 1mdb smoke screen is gone dy...once election comes..PREDICTED BN WILL AGAIN...myr will be even stronger.
But I'm not sure if Malaysian stocks will get affected severely. In 2017 Malaysian stocks got affcted least by bullish US stocks. Malaysian stocks may get affected, but will probably end up with a less than 1% drop.
Dear calvintaneng, True fact is American want Face, si.ai.bin The country is being financed by the Chinese speaking n look alike nations in the entire world today.
To continue spending n pay the creditor countries is their biggest problem, that's all. But to pay they have to keep increasing their Debt Limit which is due next mth, i think. the problem can become messy esply the bodoh president simply just drop all taxes everywhere for no economic reason in a best growing economy long created by obama. This is causing the fear now. n oso, DOW n partners r due to fall a bit in any way u look at them.
Let me add what I heard then in 1998 Asian Financial Crisis.
Everybody knows from the Good Book that said, the yahudi can be 'severely punished' by only 1 colour people of the world.
So in 1997/98, starting from Thai baht, the asian currencies were falling easily n surely in purebear fashion 1 after another. g soros n big timers were having fun n good times taking advantage of every falling currency in all the countries in the bloc. Finally the final straw was to whack big havoc with Hong Kong dollar.
The story then said, China gave an easy statement to g soros n team i.e.
I, china n all my oversea Chinese look alike gov countries r holding the biggest USD assets in dollars. only if u dare to proceed another inch into HK dollar, we will corporately throw our USD to U anytime now.
So the stock mkt began to pureBULL all the way from 1st Sep 2009 onwards ...
Appreciate v. much your kind alert on possible impending major correction/ CRASH in financial markets n implications for BURSA Malaysia.
There was a similar siren sounded much earlier on Jan.8 2018 by an I3 blogger, which was titled :
KLCI BULLISH SELL ALL to them ,( esp. the O & G sharp surging up shares).
Of course,in early Jan. BURSA was in a v.high mood, in the midst of v.enjoyable Bullish party.
Out came an early bird, with an unwelcome alert, u can guess the type of reception/response, from most people.
Many sifu in I3 were quick to shoot from the hip, to put this blogger in his rightful place.
Cant remember the name of this blogger, though.
But i think, level headed n right thinking I3 viewers should accord credibility to those whom it is due n remember who are those prone to shoot from the hips.
What a bunch of idiots 2.5% all panic call for crash lol
Look at the US stock market after the idiots voted Trump into office, how many % rise, the few % drop is peanuts la
You must know the pullback is caused by what to find out if its going to be prolonged, or just a blip
And you will see that the drop is due to impending rise of interest rates, when interest rates rise, of course some money will flow out of equities to 'chase' the higher yields or else the portfolio managers are going to get fired la they are human beings also need to take care of their backside ma lolol
In fact, wage growth and inflation is a good sign for the economy because it means it is expanding. And with the rate rise already anticipated, what 'crash'? So easy to predict a crash ah Soros will be a trillionaire lo lolol. A crash by sheer definition will only happen from something that you cannot anticipate. If your portfolio cant take this small drop, that means your ability to pick stocks needs a lot of improvement. And if you cant bear to go through that small drop, go and keep money in properties or FD or other asset classes
No major war, no natural disaster, no major terror.....this 665 drop due to US interest rate hikes means US economy is very healthy......means more US funds will flow into Malaysia.....next week Bursa CNY goreng starts.
KWANTAS FOR ITS LAND BANKS RSAWIT FOR ITS 100% OIL PALM TREES WTK FOR BEING BALANCED WITH TIMBER HARNLERN FOR ITS PRIME JB PROPERTIES TDM FOR ITS STABLE ASSET IN HOSPITAL CBIP FOR ITS MODIPALM THPLANT FOR DIVIDEND JTIASA NOW SO CHEAP DUTALAND FOR ITS COMING CASH HOARD SO MANY MORE?
cash is king if butaland got 750mil also interest rate up.....then kaboom. bonia is a dying industy just like parkson.nowday u see any young generation go and shop at bonia?
wait jibby lose only can buy a lot on 4d.....now all control by a lot cannot kena,only his cronies can kena a lot.same goes to bursa.now only can buy and make coffee money cannot buy maserati
Bloomberg said it was not even a correction (drop less than 10%. Cant be defined as correction) . You called it a crash. *facepalm. If Malaysia follows US index. KLCI is already above 3000 points
Lol, correction and crash are total differ story. Correction usually after awhile of increasing trend while crash need few requirement. Plus last time market crash because of some incidents. Nowadays, we need to take account of few others things like, china new economy status, us interest rate trend and real economy turmoil that cause market crash. Us wont be that easy crash due to it current economy conditions which donald trump have to take care it main problem. Most probaly Donald trump need to increase US productivities before next crash as US now having huge debt and as interest going up, it serve more debt add on. While china own alot Us treasury bond too and big portion Us market (china export). US really have to reconsider self status again if china sucessful on his 一带一路 plan and neglected Us big market. Please take note that, many country already slowly thrown usd and buy gold last 10 years. Do take also we encounter coming GE14 as gov need to let ppl feel good enviroment lolz. Good luck all.
Just Sharing...4 Tips From USA Today For Tomorrow... :)
1. Don't panic and stay the course
If you flee stocks now, you're going to miss out on potential gains ahead. Economists remain bullish on growth. "We expect fiscal policy, financial conditions and firming global outlook to support strong economic growth of 2.7% in 2018," Nomura economist Lewis Alexander said in a note.
Experts have been predicting a correction. From the Dow's peak of more than 26,000 in late January, it would take a 2,600-point drop to hit that 10% level, and Alan Skrainka, chief investment officer for Cornerstone Wealth Management, has been predicting that's what will happen this year.
2. Consider buying the dip
Should you take advantage of the dip to buy more stocks? The bull market is showing its age but few think the good times are at an end.
The U.S.'s unemployment rate, at 4.1%, is at the lowest level since December 2000. The tax-cut package delivered some of the biggest gains to corporations, and the benefit to profits is likely to support stock prices through the rest of the year.
But if you decide to snap up shares at lower prices, be selective, advises Joe Quinlan, chief market strategist for U.S. Trust. Consider your tolerance for risk over the long run, because your nerves are going to be tested as the market gets bumpy amid rising long-term interest rates.
In the U.S., Quinlan sees opportunity in financials, health care and industrials. Looking abroad, he favors stocks related to the e-commerce boom in China and robotics production in Japan.
3. Or wait and watch
The market may rebound in a big way following the recent turbulence, but it may take time..
Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist for CFRA, is predicting further declines before stocks stabilize. Given that the market has gone so long without a major setback, investors may be leery about jumping back in right away.
4. Realize the sell-off is a blip
Since 1900, the U.S. has seen 125 corrections of 10% or more, which is about one a year. Yet the market always goes on — and eventually up. Since 1980, the stock market has had positive annual returns in 28 of the last 37 years, Skrainka points out.
Remember that the drop Friday follows a 25% rise in the Dow last year.
"It’s really not much of a sell-off," says Stephen Janachowski, CEO of Brouwer and Janachowski, a wealth management firm based in Mill Valley, Calif. "A 3% to 5% decline doesn’t scream 'buy' or 'sell.' "
The consequence of exit fr QE 2. PPl thought that when bond yields start their climb, the Dow will go up n up. Now which is which? Interest rates goes up - Dow goes up or Interest rates goes up - Dow goes down.
