AvatarG'day mate....! Hi smloo,

No, I'm not contributing in the Right Timing column. I only write once-in-a-while and Mr Azam Aris slotted them under 'The Right Timing Special' series... that again my contribution was rather scarce (a highly-ranked friend from OCBC even said once: "You write only once year!"). They offered me a column but time is not in my favour and I prefer to appear as and when I'm in the mood (of writing), for now. Again, I normally avoid pure journalistic themes. I prefer to be a bit analytical in what I wish to share, as an intellectual discourse of course -- or else people can sue me if things don't go their way! (Right?).

For friends out there, here's the link for the chart I mentioned (I have posted under Friendster): http://www.friendster.com/group/viewphoto.php?p=e&pid=452316&rid=46871&gid=136322

Bye, time to go for my roti canai & teh tarik at the mamak stall! Take care, all of you.

Hi Arifin,

I totally agree with you about the Edge. I have never miss a single issue since its first issue, unless I am overseas.

Out of curiosity, is the weekly Right Timing column on the analysis of the stock market contributed by you?

AvatarHi smloo,

Frankly I'm still not sure if they run my brief commentary or not. Anyway in or not you should keep abreast with the other stories/news in The Edge -- I find it worthwhile reading it for it helps me to strategise wisely to trade come next Monday. You don't get many local weekly investment/finance magazines that have survived this long... I have been an ardent reader from day 1... but have skipped a lot these past few years except when there run my articles/ commentaries or when they have interesting stories from prominent columnists like Stiglitz, Sachs, Roach, etc. (it feels nice when your article/viewpoint shares the same forum pages with the likes of the Nobel laureatte [Joseph Stiglitz]), and of course our local writers like Sulaiman Mahboob, Nungsari, etc.

Btw, you can always grab a copy from the mamak news stalls early while having your roti canai/teh tarik... no need to wait for the bookshops/news agents to open. The Edge normally sells fast in TTDI area - selling like hot pisang goreng!.

Have a nice weekend, happy reading and plan carefully come Monday the 8th of Jan 2007!

AvatarHi John & Others,

I have done a quick commentary on that before lunch time today. Have send it to The Edge for this week's issue... hope that Azam picked it up without much editing and have  reserved some space for it. Tentatively I gave it this title -- "In2-007: What lies ahead for KLCI?" (In2 = Into, and 007 = James Bond...). Its a brief one with just one chart, and I have included my short forecast(s) for the KLCI in2-007....

Stay tune and spare a fiver for a copy of The Edge's 1st issue of this year. C u all then. Meantime keep on making some money tomorrow, and always.... Thanks gang, all d best, always!

AvatarSigh, I'm 1 year older already.

Hopefullly, could make new aspirations/resolutions this year.

No offence to many forumers here, but after profiting much from last years market, I would to re-enter the market again but at cheaper price. So, I was hoping for a BUST in the stock market. No offence here again to many who "pantang". But I believe it would bring better benefits to you guys as well. The stock market is just like wheat harvesting. AFter a great harvest, the farm must be burned down into ashes creating a natural fertilizer for the next planting/harvest. If you understand this, I believe most of you would like to buy shares like Genting,topglove,KNM,etc at say 30-50% discount rather than now as most blue chips are in their peaks.

Just my "2 cents".

With a healthy vegan burger, herb potato + creamy cheese brocoli; and Kuching black coffee at hand for my dinner, this is my guess :
1st 1,331, then 1,557 and end with 2,012 [e wave]. Probably I should try my hand on EDGE :)-
It's been 14yrs man !!!! 2 of my shares that I bought in 1992 still being suspended... How ? Better stay with my gold/silver...
Old man bought in a lot of finance shares 6mths ago, laughing to the bank...

Seaydog.

well, I guess next year would be a great year with exceptions/precautions. As the market looks overweight now, it will correct once it breaches the 1100 mark in Jan '07.

AvatarHappy New Year to all fellow Malaysians, everywhere!

With a good roti canai/nasi lemak and teh tarik and glancing thru the newspapers... I can't help but say that the local press has spiced up with nice storylines this morning! Is it too good to be true? KLCI at 1,200 is the common theme, 1,330 the big resistance, and/but why not pass that barrier? I'll be doing my own study tonite to meet tomorrow's dateline for a story in The EDGE's first issue of the year!

Well the journalists and expert panelists have had their say..... what about you guys/gals out there? Surely we have our own perceptions -- don't fret spill it out... who knows perhaps some of our prognoses could very well be on target far better than what the experts are thinking. Let end-2007 be the judge -- come on share your thoughts.

Remember that the people-in-the-streets can't be all wrong, and the experts were not always right in their prognoses. Perhaps the SC should come up with some kind of award to recognise the unsung heros.... some may turn out to be more heroic than the experts.

Mark my words! All d best!
