Last Day of Trading

Shall end the last trading day on a cheesy yet heartfelt tune: ~~~

I want somebody to share
Share the rest of my life
Share my innermost thoughts
Know my intimate details
Someone who’ll stand by my side
And give me support
And in return
She’ll get my support
She will listen to me
When I want to speak
About the world we live in
And life in general
Though my views may be wrong
They may even be perverted
She’ll hear me out
And won’t easily be converted
To my way of thinking
In fact she’ll often disagree
But at the end of it all
She will understand me

Aaaahhhhh....I want somebody who cares
For me passionately
With every thought and
With every breath
Someone who’ll help me see things
In a different light
All the things I detestI will almost like
I don’t want to be tied
To anyone’s strings
I’m carefully trying to steer clear of
Those things
But when I’m asleep
I want somebody
Who will put their arms around me
And kiss me tenderly
Though things like this
Make me sick
In a case like thisI’ll get away with it
Aaaahhhhh....

christmas

Recently, i have been feeling so empty inside.
My life has became so stagnant.
I no longer can get high and happy on drinks.
Cigarettes have also failed to fill the vacuum.
Once again, i dunno what im writing.
I dun even know y i am depressed.

Im as lethargic as the mkt.
The mkt that has the few participants who are not worth mentioning.
Where is everyone?

Why would Christmas without fail, sucks air out of me and leaves me gasping for someone. Gets more harsh each year. For the love of God, i know why now. A lover is calling me and i chose to be alone. Brave huh. So i know,

Im have been real terrible deal negotiator at my own lifetable. Time to be the banker for once and steer the game to be one that i have lived and laughed and loved well.

back to basics

I received a temp replacement phone recently. It was indeed retro w its iconic single lined graphic against blue lights. I'd kinda enjoyed the simplicity of havg such phone. No doubt there were inconveniences, but it was easy to get ard. Missing it already.

It was prob e preview of a life tat's basic enough. Im too ahead of my time and surely missing out.

last drop of fluid

I have been trying to write something meaningful. At least something that can represent the loads of tots in my head.

I have been thinking so hard, my head hurts. My ability to dissect lumps into recognizable bits seems to have abandoned me.

Now, im entangled in my own tots, unable to break free. I just kept twirling, thinking that the ends would be nearer my hand. I tried so hard, just to find my own train of tots getting tighter and choking me breathless. The lack of air made me hallucinate a hell lot. Im finding it increasingly difficult to differentiate between what is real and not.

My neurons have just propelled me to pure imagination and left me there.

Someone save me please.

passed the week drunk.

How i dread 2005. 13 more days.

Dory

someone commented that i'm like dory. i couldnt understand it at first although nemo's fren did cross my mind. For the first time, im forgetful. I guess i'd tried too hard in wanting to forget abt the doldrums im in and i'd conveniently pulled the plug on my memory.

I like it this way. It sux to have an elephant memory. Pain stays longer than usual and happiness lingers as long to cloud the very lessons learnt. In the end, you are reduced to a helplessly hopeful pooch chasing your own tail and biting yourself.

I like this fren, i see the familiar fear in her. Im glad it can no longer hold me at gunpt.I wish she can walk away soon enough as well and look headon, the bruises with pride. I see her potential in being really happy one day and i wish that we together can feel that life is good finally.

a week of rest

It started with a mandatory leave and ended with much needed goodbyes.
I hate not building something as i get wash away by time. The last few days have been concrete and definitive in what we all consider as 'time flies'. It came, knocked me over and over and over , finally flew past me. Later did i know, it would not let me go. It dragged me along with a large part of me wanting to rest. I helplessly abraded against the cold hard uneven realities, with my eyes looking at nuthing but the depression created.

My thoughts are so random now and I wish that by typing them out in a box like this, it would settle and i would be able to piece them together in an orderly fashion so that i can understand what im thinking right now.

Goodbye to all fatigue and irregularities that have been clouding my supposedly clear mind.

clouds

My bars have been raised by an extreme force that is hard to come by.
And now, many would just walk under it with me losing sight of everything but the skies.
Its time to take a rest and i started to look at the clouds moving.
The more u look at the clouds, the faster they seem to be moving.
There was this particular one that i was unable to catch up with.
Before i know it, it had joined the other clouds.

I realise that my ability to focus has diminished to a level i have nv been before.
I cant seem to know what im thinking

December blues

Met an ex shool mate yesterday.

Time is strength in itself. It accumulates trust between you and the friendships found eons ago without you even knowing it. I always think that trust is a vulgarity in itself. It gifs u total freedom when u use it, but leaves u with an unbearable aftertaste when its lost. i find it very difficult to trust anyone. But to ple whom you know since they were wearing braces and tiny tees, trust comes so easy. Even when you hang out wif them less than 5 times a year.


I realised that it was easy to build trust then, when the plate we held out wasn't broken yet.

the PRL placement

A dearth of ideas and participants dominated the session, possibly into the end of the week on the back oh hols. STI edges abv psychological 2300s, supported by optimistic economic fundamentals.

PRL's placement at steep 11% threw us off our game plan. It was well absorbed and topped wif an exceedingly bullish comment. It flew off us, broke 1.5 resistance and ,not to mention, stayed above. grrr... Looks like history does not always repeat. (HYF, KST).

Dun look into my past.

im drunk

Im in a daze most of the time, floating along on troubled waters, hoping the drift would push me onshore.

My hands are tied and my situations deny me of the opportunities that i wish i could have in order to pursue what i want.

I just have to move bit by bit.

Identification of a float in the midst of choppy sessions

SGX: recent fee hike marks the first of the many earnings accretive measures in the pipeline as fee structure remains well below its illustrious peers. . Potential revamp of trading and settlement procedures as well as cross border shs listings will significantly boost turnover. Foresee gradual upward revision of earnings against its current PE of 20x vs ASX's 25x, HKSE 22.9x, Bursa's 27x. Technicals look poised to test above 2.76s prev high for higher 2.88 (21.3x PE) trend channel resistant.

Sin Telco

domestic mobile mkt tapering off with penetration rate of 98.7% and mkt share has stabilised at 1/3 each. Without many opportunities to drive rev expansion, telcos have to rely on optimising costs and others to drive growth. Expect telcos to stay rangebound with yield supporting downside and muted growth to cap upside. One major driver is if telco decides to gear up and pay out more dvd.

i can nv stay rangebound. i would get lethargic and the stochastics would slip. i constantly seek for new growth areas so that my life could be one that i can shout abt to potential investors. It has been tough recently. Unattractive valuation provided no support on the downside and coupled with a jittery mkt seeking direction, I can feel myself drifting lower.

Monday, November 07, 2005

Regional weakness dampens sentiments of the local bourse, leading to profit taking as players site excuses like US job numbers, Apple's downgrade, bird flu etc. The same bird singing the same tune and really wonder when the worms will wake up and realise that they are abt to miss the boat to land luxy.

U find the same bells everywhere with the exact melody heard 10 yrs ago. The way it started, the way it ended. The way it went with its glorious climax and the way it drifted to ears of unhappy listeners. There are a few exceptions though. They managed to tow out of line, stayed there, and jeer at the distinct 'noise' heard while standing at the sidewalks. I managed to capture one such jeer as i float along. I want very much to stay still as well. So that you can rest your throat and retire with me.

A very fast week

It was a week that passed so fast.

Was in TW for almost 5 days. Entertain Entertain Entertain. Clubs in TW are totally smashing. Beautiful ple, Fantastic music, Frenly Culture. The 5 days passed in a blur, leaving me with the love of the place still. I wished to go back there again, w a gf this time. :)

Went back to work on friday. Mkt undecided and gittery as usual. Held on to lower oil pxs to stay afloat. However, I was smiling the whole time. I think im in love.

Cosco

Morning+0.08
Afternoon-0.06
Closed +/-0.00

Made a call to buy at 2.20 intraday support.
90% guts+10%momentum reading.
SS made my day w her support. :)

I realised i have an exceptional interest in looking at stocks that behaved as if they have gotten into fits. I cant help but to make it a pt to call for a b/s in order to feel the random pangs that comes with holding loads of such positions that have the potential to swing you across the universe and back.

N i thought that i look towards having the stable life that i nv had but i forgotten abt... pari passu.
I have been thru too much to stay still.
Too stretched to stay unwounded.
Too high to always stay above.
Too low and unable to crack below.
My inertia will keep me going thru cycles after cycles and thats truly me. one who enjoys the ride, be it in hell or up in heaven.

bee

u realised that life goes on too soon too fast. and when it comes, it sweeps you away.
sometimes you will be on a surfing board and cruise along and sometimes you drown and got your bones crushed by the undercurrents.

I thank God that a certain level of pain i felt in my earlier years made me to be such a grateful being now. That as im riding the waves, im appreciating the fact that im so lucky and so happy. just happy. period.

many things had happened and its all plain good.

To flying J:
im glad that life took a turn and we now can see clearer how it is to live it to one that would be larger than it seems. there is just so much in store for us. and i really wan to pen this down. that whatever happens next. we will always look to this entry and tell ourselves that our life was great, is greater and gonna be the greatest. love you my fren.

its the short spurts in life that allow us sneak peeks occasionally into the wonderful side of simply being allowed to live. i got my bonus recently and it was unbelievable. less of the money though. more of the realisation that personality truly sells and not only that, it commands a premium.

I have been so busy. Happily busy.

Fundamental changes

Despite physical property prices lagging the region, Spore bellwether prop stocks have outpaced peers in the region. Outperformance could be attributed to capital mkt pricing in forward property px increase and casino/BFC premium but actual rentals have not increased materially to support the current rise in capital values. Prop valuations unsettled the fragile sentiment of the mkt as the sector collapsed some 3.8%.

Someone asked me that day whether ZZ is my gf and i said 'no', She replied saying that 'yah, can see she's not your type'. I really wonder how some ple ''see'' my type.

Someone commented that im so in the right job.

Be a realist

I think the human brain is such powerful tool. It can led one into thinking that one is none other than super-wonder woman and the whole world must bow to her. Be a realist, i would say. Cos, truth is, if you are not rich, powerful, highly educated, good-looking, no one will actually take your 'concerns' into consideration. In the end, a laughing stock is born.

desert

Im currently in a desolated desert, plagued by the lack of words to express how my life is now. I need to find the oasis to quench my thirst for jotting down the unique roller coaster ride that im on now.

I realised that I love versatility, embrace diversity and am enjoying the ride of my life time right now.

Opp costs

Two days of leave + an underlying bullish mkt = unhappy monkey

I hate to miss any trades. The opportunity cost weighs on me like tonnes of lead hanging loosely and leaning against my ribs, slowing caving it in. i can hardly breathe.

love stories

I love to read and i Thank God for that. It's one effective way to calm myself down and jam brake me to an abrupt but sure stop. I can keep my fleeting brain cells in check and line them for sermons that i want to receive. They say the type of materials you read would be deposited in ur subconscious mind and would slowly manifest themselves. NO wonder i cant freaking be in love! i need to read some melodramatic , earth -shaking , till death do us part kind of love stories. ermm...i need to start with idiot guide to love stories . . . im sure there is one.

sundays

It was another sat night. I drank and danced and drank and danced and puked when I got home. Woke up at 9 this morning in a comfortable daze. My brain wasnt working, I couldnt think. The pulses left were used to feel the love of a deary fren who has given in to my unreasonable demand.

I love waking up to sundays. Especially the drizzily ones. I would smoke and look out of the window, thinking of nothing. Simply high on the fresh breeze with some sprinkles of dews on my face. After two bottles of water, i got myself back and thought of the lil wide-eyed puppy. She was licking her owner in such lovely fashion and i was smiling. I could almost see her cross the line to land of contentment where she would lay under blanket bliss. I can finally read now.

I think painting is therapeutic. More so when its with the silhoette of someone you love against rainbow flowers.

A lethargic mkt living in limbo

Early weakness in the Spore bourse was gradually lifted by performance of the regional mkts as newsflow remains lethargic and activity sways to the tunes of the regional chimes. Mkt awaits patiently for some form of Quarterly window dressing for index to test range ceiling abt the 2320s.

My mood is in such strong correlation to the emotions of the mkt This is the problem when loving something too much. Esp something that has a life of its own, independent, aloof and stubborn. Yet, when stochastics takes the turn and momentum catches up, it could be so willful, emotional and might be the joker in the box, just waiting to embrace you.

I need to do some delta hedge here. Long myself and short the mkt!?Long myself and Short...hmm... grrr... right, get this straight... if black scholes is right, the variables are as follow:

1) Long Positions (50%)
2) Frens (20%)
3) Family (10%)
3) Exercise (10%)
4) Readings (10%)

I need to redistribute the weightings and get it more inline with the sanity scene.

SMM - a pure buy call

SMM retraced sharply from recent spike to 3.2s on the negative commentaries. At 3.02s, It is a bargain, given its move to increase capacity and improve locality to its major clients. Furthermore, explansion plans undertaken by its 30% owned Cosco Shipyard in China is poised to benefit from China's booming shiprepair biz.

Mkt's not alone

The mkt is not alone.
I will run with it to break into a higher high and create a trend so magnificent that will put all non-believers to their knees.
I will train and build up my stamina to ride it on towards a topless sky, beneath the land of cries.

I met Sparky today and I made a couple of exceptions.
Ran ard in my heels for her objectives, and waited wif no tinge of diss.
Sparky looked on and smiled at me.

Its a wonder how erratic life can be.

Im so happy now i can die laughing in my dreams.
Im so happy now that i can spend as much time with myself as i can
Im so happy now that i can read read read.
I've nv known happiness can be found singlehandedly and be kept in my own lock.
I wished that the ple i know whom love life is gone, can come to my side of the island and find themselves finally.

undying interest

I have an undying interest for the mkt and you know why.
I have dozens of formulas to make it balance just to have them decoded by the mkt armed with a lurking hacker. Left me a mad scientist with experiments that had gone bad and exploded relentlessly under my nose. The pursuit for the right direction keeps me searching for more to feed my used muscles and hungry matter.

I have an undying interest to understand complications and you know why.
I found a representation of the mkt. Haphazard and Fragile. Intense and Lost.
Like a battered bleached bitch holding a last bone with the final chance to conquer the world. Unrealised and unassuming, unknown to the fact that expectations have been runned over. In search for new themes, I prob have created a wrong hypothesis and my scale has turned tipsy and landed on me. The confusions crossed with my wildest imagination and left me blurry eyed with an unabating need to still understand an ever changing consistency.

blended emotions


im so addicted to smoke and liquor, i want to get more than enough.

im so excited with fresh perspectives from a silly lili, i included her in my dreams

im so jaded with being happy, i released it out and deposited in frenly accounts.

im so freaked out by commitments, i wan to split it with the other one.

im so mixed with emotions, i washed it down with mixtures and ended in a blur.

HAPPY

I'm beginning to love weekends. I drink and dance and be merry. It is just so simple.

But i have been plagued by my own foolishness. I realised, it isnt uncomfortable to lose when the loss is not accompanied by a poignant vision of what might have been. I could not keep my mind from dwelling on and it unsettled me further. I need to have my self controlled brain back.

Cyclical recovery in chip sector evident as industry data ticks upward, esp in test and assembly segment. VLSI research highlights strong cap utilisation rates of >90% for back-end operations; while SEMI reported N.America book-to-bill ratio of 1.05 in Aug for its first rise above parity in a yr.

My fav of the lot being GTC +0.015. Fucking no brainer.

Insomnia revisit to looking young

A sure cure for insomnia can be found in the mkt.

Two steps to sleeping like a baby

1. Find out what stocks you carrying
2. Sell down to sleeping point

Went to my skin doc today and one of the patient asked me what's wrong with my face. I took it as a compliment and my heart was smiling. Later did i realise tat my undying need to look young has been pullin me by my eyelash with an unabating force, that im willing to spend 3 hrs waiting for Doc miracle. Pure con of being a virgoan, perfection is at Infinit City.

Nonetheless, the 3 hrs was hrs well spent.

1. Spoke to DD. I missed yakking to you really. I have so much to tell you. ... hahaaa... keep your lines open.

2. Got hooked on Reminiscences of a stock operator - it's such a fantastic read, next to Roald Dahl Short Stories. But, one need to be stabbed by the falling knife from the mkt to be able to appreciate what Livingston was getting at. As a sucker for such good mind fuck, thou shalt be killed in orgasm by thy lover, Mdm Mkte.

an uptick

My Lovely Mkt:
Got stumped out by SSH today. I wonder what I was thinking when Mkt turned up and I held on to a sell...grrrr.... I deserve a hard hit on my chest. Shareholders cont to sell out. As dirty as it gets, the stronger a wall i would have built to resist entrance.


Gym: is turning my world topsy turvy...
* Warm finally
* Blood Flowing in my body finally again
* Upticks...

Life is indeed wonderful. It's great being alive. period. Endless problems (duh) pursuits (hope), possibilities (surprises). MM told me to imagine the day when he and CM accompany me to shop for menses red union jacky... I lit up instantly.

Today i realised that :
*I have gotten frens instead of colleagues.
*My passion for the mkt will lead me to heaven.

Second liners

Mkt has been Exhausted, in need of news flows, Over long.
Katrina is over and so is US$70/ barrel crude. Good bye glorious pearl and ezra.
FOMC tonight will not surprise with rate increase regardless of crowds still sore from hurricane. Sorry treasuries...
Second liners has been in the spotlight with retailers scrambling to catch the wave. A traditional leading indicator for big boys to sell. Beware but all is not lost. The kick is in the search for precious... Ring Ring.


The Mkt will evolve and there will always be a story to tell. To remind sideline will reduce you to nuthing more than a pathetic outsider. Mediaring: Over told, over Bot, Over played. But its still for anyone who doesnt mind a fatter wallet. Reiterate BUY but not for the faint hearted.


I begin to wonder, Y do i lay so far from the mainstream. Y i understand the stocks that i barely know for days more than ple i ever was with for mths.


* Listening to Les Miserables. Old Skool. Still Lovely *

Insomaniac - WTF

Im a certified Insomaniac ... its 3am now and i cant freaking sleep.

The last time i had insomnia was 4 yrs ago when the love of my love went away. I was heartbroken then and tats a totally legitimate reason to NOT sleep. But what's going on now?

Well, I had a pleasant surprise as i came online... fatty bombom is coming back in dec for a good 3 weeks! A trip to the www made totally worthwhile.

Urge

I have a sudden urge to be what i should be ... :Intellectually enquiring, methodical and logical, studious and teachable. Combine mental ingenuity with the ability to produce a clear analysis of the most complicated problems. A certain roadmap now guides my path. I seemed to have found what I'm interested in.

Possibilities

Living amongst a labyrinth of characters on a tiny island, it's really dumb to think that life is just ... work, home, tv, internet, oh...new addition...blogging. Cos the same gang of queers make the mkt ...

* Sin Soon Huat +67%, crazy little ' i dunno y but who gives a fuck and just grab the $ trade'
* Reyoung, as expected, tested 335 and closed 35. Good trade.
* MediaRing manages to almost made my stomach flip. Little chicks ready to roast mama hen me for dinner should media not reach beyond 30.

Call me panty stockist

*Geared and almost ready to jump on socialite silicon, Dude, Invt Heng... n DB. yeah...

How many ple actually love their job. We all graduated with dependable degrees and was presented before us, monster Inc's version of, endless rows of doors of opportunities. We opened one, went in and got ourselves buried in smelly human socks. Some stayed on, thinking all rooms have the same nottie kids. Some chose to get out, shaved and venture to a next entrance. I was the latter. N i found a happy monster family.

To Mimi J

Dear Robert,

Please do not blush now. HA! Now i feel like an operated stock aka do what the operators tell me to. Hi Operator J. Anyway, I'm sure you know me more than the fact that I only do what I want. So, this note is purely written for you , from the bottom of MOI HEART. Thanks for letting me piss on you. opps...piss u off..ermm... should i use the word piss?! Grrr... Sorry, promise i will learn my verbs, eat my salads, and Love u deep deep. What will i do without knowing that even squinty eyes can be fixated on me... ur most wanted bug...no .. bud... no ... BUDDY! I need to know less vulgarities and more greeks to tell you how much i need ur consistencies ard.

Love,

TOMMIE

Fallen from grace

Mediaring: fallen from grace, drown in the pits, and now risen from its grave.

VoIP tech attracted speculative interest coupled with e-Bay's acquisition of Skype Tech, paying some 50x revenues. According to iSuppli, residential subscribers would jump some 40x to 197m worldwide by 2010.


I was promoting it agressively. , and noticed how many who were once burnt by it, dared not touch it ever. To me, they have just missed a fantastic trade. C'mon, walk out from the past.
It's a wonder how some ple hate a certain, what one of my client call, 'Lan Gu' , and yet nv give the mkt up altogether. As long as you have a position, any stock can scald you, any ger can hurt you.

A reknown dealer once commented that a good trader is one who is without emotions. She will not get swept away by euphoria or feel amputated when cutting loss.


If what all my exgfs said was true, then i'm gonna earn my 1st million very very soon. But I would rather let frenzies get into my head and indulge in all shenanigans that a position has to offer.

murderers

Bestest MO told me this today...
Cigarettes shorten your life by 5mins
Alcohol shorten your life by 10 mins
Working shorten your life by 8hrs!

I begin to think of the other activities in my life that have been paving the way to my grave...
Sleep six hrs
Work twelve hrs
The balance of my day : dedicated to frens... hello murderers...

To former:
I wouldnt have died so beautifully
To current:
I wouldnt have died so peacefully
To old skool:
I wouldnt have died so in comfort

Multi-dimensional Time

Scalper (1min) ; Day trader (5min); Position trader (60min); Investors (Daily); Institutions (Weekly)

To adopt different chart analytics for different holding time frame. A level above to look out for support/ resistance and a level below to identify entry pt.

My holding time frame has always been ard a year and that makes me an Investor. Ha.

I should focus on 60 mins behaviour for entry pts. Well said. More often than not, it would take me less than a day to know whether any thing is possible or totally impossible. After which, Dailys would be my primary reason for longing a position. On support, it would depend on how well it pan out on a weekly basis which we would have shared and a challenge to break the resistance to propell the relationship to the next level.


To each its own.

Party Life

I have to remind myself. that my life should be lived in santos.

Last year in sentosa:

santos club --- A club put together to celebrate the 100th year of a unique watch... ' ... it does not exist yesterday and will not exist tomoro...'But it happens to be one of the most fabulous party i've ever been to... prob we should live our life like a santos club everyday...but more often than not, we try to build a santos club everyday, hoping that it will be one at the end of the day...

Under water world

*To those who are down n out*


you said to wish , n it will give you hope.
you said to yourself, work hard now, n it will give you your wishes.
you said to learn, n it will give you reason to work hard.
you said to be urself, as it is U, who loves to learn.
you said dun be marred by what is happening ard you, u will be lost.
you said to see the world from a bird's eye, you will not be overwhelmed.
you said you can do it. I really believe in you.


*To those who are down n out*

Impromptu meeting

I think im damn sick wif my life now... like what's going on?!?!?!

I was lamenting to Herbal Jelly that I need a hobby to keep me occupied during my free time:

HJ: what? there are freaking so many things you can do... how i wish i have the time.
M : okay, what would u do if are free
HJ: hang out wif frens, SLEEP, read...stone
M : But there's a limit to which you can do such stuff, i need something more EXCITING
HJ: Get a GF!
M :Heehee... as soon as i get a car

Eventually , we concluded that its not the excitement, but rather there must be an element of destination, like a goal to keep me goin.

So i set a couple of goals for myself to achieve:

on weekdays:

** get my heart pumping ---> gym gym gym (1)
** make my two darlins love me more ---> come home early! (1)
** expand my money making network ---> drinks wif bm club (1)
** 1 day set aside to contain variations

on weekends:

** Be a swing trader ---> study study study
** M J M J M J M J

Frens forever

Met up with you again ...

I used to think that Frens can never replace lovers. However, i have met too many frens who have behavious exactly like my lovers.

**She ask me how I am everyday.
**She demands me never to put the phone down.
**She gives me hugs.
**She demands my sheepish smile.
**She pats me to sleep.
**She demands me to tell her i feel loved by her.
**She asks me about what i love most.

Things that changed

STH:

** biz model of triple play angle on IP/Cable TV/Mobile
** govt in midst of mandating true mobile no. portability by 2007
** Users from rivals would be encouraged to benefit from a compelling pricing and a complete communications ' hubbing network package'. ** 2006 World cup could also be breakthru programme, changing domestic receptiveness of 'pay-per-view' programmes.

***Lock-up period since listing ends Oct presents possible overhang (2x IPO px). ST Telemedia (49%) & MediaCorp (13%) - Temasek owned. NTT Comm (9.4%).


I used to dislike STH cos of their corporate color (green) and you know Y. However, guess ple's mind do change. I tot someone as bull-headed as me will nv. Come to think abt it ... I did!!!:

- like STH - well now there's free incomings-->triple play-->hubber privileges
- like cats , though only FAT Himalayans
- eat brinjals, lady's fingers
- clean my room
- stay at home
- the list goes on n on n on....

Reiterate sell for Happy Ending

In search for a happy ending ...

u spent your life looking for the special someone, so as to have a Happy Ending.
Here's what a Happy Ending looks like:
You spend your life with someone and then, if they go before you, you feel as though you have lost all your limbs.At least, in our generation - the fuck around, fuck up and fuck off generation - we are all spared the knowledge of exactly what that particular amputation feels like.

SMM

SMM:

** Tight rig supply as utilisation rates are still high for jack-up rigs (96%) and semi-submersible (95%)
** heavy E&P investments shld cont given current record oil px.
** Positioned to increase its yard capacity at its Jurong Shipyard, possibly leasing additional yard space from SCI.
** Running for Petrobras' US$1.9b VLCC contract.

There are simply no reasons why SMM should not go any higher towards 3.2s. But the stock mkt is nv a true reflection of what it actually represents. Made up of us and behaves totally like us. Unpredictable and often reserved. when it comes out, you could be hit badly straight to hell or get lifted right thru cloud nine.

GTC

GTC found support abt the 0.265, 11% to IPO px. Currently trading at some 10x PE vs peers UTAC's 20x and STAT's 18x, P/B 1.3x vs UTAC's 1.21x, STAT's 1.11x. Revenue contributors include US Marvell Tech (20%); TSMC (21%); UMC 14%. US Marvell Tech has been boosted by strong consumer wireless LAN given given Sony PSP's success and is now believed to have secured a contract with MS Xbox360 and possibly PS3.GTC is poised for strong mutual growth with 80% of proceeds used to expand capacity. Accumulate for 0.42 (15x PE).

more often than not, we analyse stocks exactly the way we do with our gfs, check out what they are like by scanning their families,frens,schools and see where they stand. I hate the fact that I think so much abt the ple im wif. Cos i neglect the very joy of even being in a relationship. N that is to bask in comfort under a whole skyline of fireworks. Facts often distort emotions n that made me missed a cuople of good trades and cut much regrettable losses. Momentum is something we cant miss and volitility is something we cant avoid.

sister's love knows no boundaries

The sister who calls me beibei (cos im her baobei!)
The sister who laments my childish behaviour for having lots of toys and yet gave me a monkey toy for my 25th bd...
The sister who managed to highlight what's in a virgo and asked me to tone it down.
The sister who tells me that she loves me by cleaning my room

i love my sister to death...

Thanks babes...

Rotational Plays - COS & SMM

Rotational play moving from properties to techs will see it coming back to the shipping industries.

** improving trade traffic in Asia
** China booming economy , higher shipyard dd in China
** Dry baltic rates recovering from 2yr lows

All set to spur global dd for commodities and other gds.

COS sees support abt the 2.43s, higher near channel caps abt the 2.51s b4 2.60s; SMM sees 2.85s support, caps at 2.91s b4 3.02s. Would accumulate names abt these levels for higher.

When the mkt is small, rotational play happens all the time. Just like in the Spore Lesbian Exchange when gfs, put it crudely, just get passed ard. Mine ironically often get passed out aka delisted and relist in another mkt. HA. Anyway, pt being, we need to expand the mkt, more IPOs please or go regional... before some unfaithful listings start placing out shares and screw the ple who have invested in them. Its a dd and ss game here...

Techy Wacky

Techs helped tipped the scales into the positive region as valuations for names like STAT and UTAC were viewed as attractive after 4 weeks of selloff. US Piper Jaffray ignited the bargain huntung sentiment on laggards, calling STAT a "outperform". However, Techs continue to face pricing pressure and thus smaller revenue improvement despite higher shipments.

STI near term caps 2310s. Patience required , awaiting PML's 'renovation' plan to attract 'buyers'
