Why this index?
In Singapore, there is no official index to show Buyers' Attitude for residential properties. This forum is the best place to fill in that gap.

How does it work?
Everyone is entitled for one vote, the index is calculated by:
the percentage of bulls - percentage of bears
(Please vote even if you are neutral because it will change the overall percentage scores).

Historical Numbers:

Quarter, Votes, Index
Q4 2012, 65, +12
Q1 2013, 35, +6
Q2 2013, 56, 0
Q3, 2013, 59, -34
Q4, 2013, 53, -45
Q1, 2014, 45, -33
Q2, 2014, 43, -44
Q3, 2014, 48, -19
Q4, 2014, 29, +14
Q1, 2015, 29, +7
Q2, 2015, 20, +15
Q3, 2015, 16, +56
(The max of the index is 100, the minimum of the index is -100)

The index has reached its historical high while the number of votes has dropped to its historical low. (not very long history one has to admit). This could mean only serious buyers are still active in this forum... or it could mean a solid bottom is establishing.

Your votes will tell.

Thank you for voting - regardless of which camp you are in.

Number of votes: 4
Index: 50 - 25 = 25.

We definitely need more votes in order for the results to be meaningful.

Thank you!
