[phantom_opera]

ha ha ha very good

but Singapore's Occupy showflat is pale in comparison to China, there are 2 groups, ex-buyers who bought at the peak, and another to grep the discounted units pushed out by cash-strapped developers ... one group is screwed, another is so happy

One group is hopeful and the other is hopeless?

This market has been extremely unforgiving for stock traders. Buy at the right time, you can mamake until you don't recognise your own home. Timing off, you lose until you cry no tears.

At $17xx psf will be quite hard pressed for good rental returns on the MMs.

[Regulators]

15% of investment portfolio or just the stock portfolio? It is good to buy a basket of stocks rather than place a heavy bet on one stock. why you whack tiger when the world is on the brink of recession and air travel likely to drop by a fair bit? I would take a punt on counters like golden agri or genting if you looking at small cap stocks.

That's the problem, the whipsaw forces trader to stop out.

[phantom_opera]

Range trading ok but not day trading, stopped out a few times you still lose a lot lol, normally buy need a signal from market but sell own call in one shot

[DC33_2008]

Cannot be too greedy. Make profit and sell. With the see-saw scenario, can go up in the morning (good news in asia) and down in the afternoon (due to uncertain news from Euros).

Sg very bad for traders, spread lousy, broker association control txn price，the more frequent you trade including setting stops, more likely to lose so entry point is key

Back to stocks, it just needs to gap down in the morning and you can't even run in time. Lousy market to trade in.

Yah .... that's true.. BJ21T how u explain?

In any case, casinos in proximity are not considered a boost for residents. Who would want to be staying beside a gambling den no matter how upmarket you consider it.

Our casinos are located in prime spots which are already premium in the first place. The fact that the properties near casinos are expensive is incidental not attributed to the closeness of the casinos.

[dtrax]

Very simple.. all surpass the previous peak, and rental psf per month is not high enough to catch up with the rate of increase of PPI. Coupled with drop in expat housing allowance, if you want a sufficiently reasonable yield of 4% per month to match 2.5k-3k psf, you need about $8psf/mth or more, as some forumers mentioned, those units with 8K-10K monthly rental are those that are hard to move, MM and studios in CBD are still pretty okish and rental up to 5-6k per month are moving as well
