I feel your frustration. My edge has gone to crap with lack of movement in the market. Call it quits here soon. It's only going to get worse.
FX maintains a shine in comparison but its concerning watching exactly what the hell is going on in us markets, how long until people set their eyes upon other lands and cause enough concern for change.
yep. what use to be a river became a small creek couple years ago. now-it's a dirty puddle. no volume,no volatility,no movement. dirty dead and dry puddle
Try the BOVESPA -- Just a biased notion but, back in '02 when it became clear that the Workers Party candidate, Lula da Silva, would win the forthcoming pres. election, most of the MSM were depicting him as some hard-core former labor leader Leftist who could only make things worse. Clearly these pundit/opinion makers/analysts knew nothing of da Silva [and the PT's] rightward movt. during the prior years. So much so that he chose IMF/WB related econ advisers, began correcting the debt and monetary 'crisis' and helped send the Bovespa from c. 9000 to around 60k with many individual shares doing much better [SBS ran from around 5 to over 50, but jeez, when I saw it at 5 and change, it was load up time, i.e., I was astounded that the largest water treatment facility in the hemisphere was being given away. Now that market has been too high for too long......should be some great shorts. But, as almost always, timing, DD, etc. Take a peek into Mongolia Please Do Not Take This as Investment Advice,
5to12, Brazilian exchanges will not ever perform that way again. Their liquidity is gone due to FTT, and this is neither beneficial to anyone in your country, nor was any capital appreciation caused by your centrist government. Liquidity preference theory applies so that there can be no full fair value and your stocks will always be discounted for its negligence to the international community of investors that brought it to that level. Just as I can detect a socialist bent there, Mongolia is no different. PRLAX was something good for a while from T Rowe Price, but fell after these socialist rules came into effect in Latin America and that prevents full valuations from ever being realized. Also, Hugo Chavez is evil.
I doubt that. simply because in US stock market is a pool of private capital, where anyone can invest in any company.this is the core of capitalism. name any other country, where you can trade 3000-7000 stocks. it doesn't exists.
is this another scheme to prop up the market ? why going to 5 % ? That's ridiculous, the markets have become a farce. And it's all because of HF traders.
