The correction will come fast and furious .... so beware. There is simply no measure of excessive speculation.

sam- like what’s said above, don’t be too greedy. get out while profitable. a lot of this speculative rally is due to hot money coming from china. hot money means they come quickly, drive up the market, attract more retail investors, and finally they’ll get out after driving up prices. don’t be too greedy. make some money and get out. buy again later.

speculator Minister Mah Bow Tan says ‘I wouldn’t say there is excessive speculation at the moment, but there is some element of speculation involved. Some of the practices and habits that you saw in the last property boom, are beginning to comeback, so I think we’ll have to be careful.’
Does that mean we can still buy and sell when the speculation becomes excessive?

player There are all kinds of people with different views of risks. Some feel buying when stocks have fallen drastically (e.g. in March 09) is risky, but buying now when stocks are "recovering" is not. Others like me hold the opposite view - we buy when we think stocks are cheap (e.g. in March 09) and sell some for profits when stocks have reached medium term high (e.g. now). Both groups can make money, but in different ways.

For beginners, I recommend observing the stock market for a while and saving up in the meantime. When you have some spare cash, then try to invest in blue chip stocks. Don't play contra unless you fully know what you're getting into and are fully prepared for the risks. Look into forex and derivatives if you're more adventurous, again with a view of all the risks involved.

adiemuso you did a good job. well done. being tactical n nimble is key now. and remember greed is good but greed kills.
29-07-2009 04:43 PM
to adiemuso Thanks for the advice. I’ve already sold 1/3 of my shares with the intention to buy back at a lower price.
29-07-2009 04:39 PM
adiemuso risk/reward is subjective.
29-07-2009 04:38 PM
to adiemuso Do you recommend that I sell my shares now and pick them up again after the impending correction?
