this forum lacks of financial experts

This proves u know shit about investments. U should shut up and continue with your fixed deposits at POSB, instead of dispensing financial / investment advice.

That's because returns from my fixed deposit already enough for my monthly expenses. Only those with little to begin with but greedy for more will take risky investment.

Good news for savers like you, the FED is finally raising interest rates. As interest rates rises back to normal levels, this will lead to rising bank deposit rates in SG over the next few years.

The Fed's medium-term projection for the Federal Funds rate is 1.5% in 2016 and 2.5% in 2017.

The Fed will not get close to normal levels of around 3.5% until 2018 when it expects the economy will be back on a solid track.

which essentially means a tightening of supply of dollars (you twit), and this will contribute to the dollar's higher valuation. when you created this thread, you're basically referring to yourself.

This is the post that maketh the thread.

Sometimes I do wonder if the resident loser Krafty is aware of his antics....if he's in denial.....then again maybe not

I remember i renewed my granny's FD in the early 1990s and the rate was like 5-6%.

as expected and a foregone conclusion, the fed finally raises interest rate by a quarter of a percentage point this morning. markets are stable and actually goes up, and the usd strengthens slightly against all other major currencies. it's a win-win as the fat lady has sung, anxiety is over, uncertainty crushed, and everyone can move along to do their stuff just prior to the festive end of year period. basically, a sigh of relief this drama is over. it signals the admission that the u.s. economy has long recovered from the 07-08 malaise, is in good shape, in fact is going through the expansion phase, and will need higher interest rates to temper inflationary pressures, which are not truly threatening yet considering that energy prices have been trending down. instead of shorting the usd, there is renewed confidence in the dollar and more buying and hoarding of the usd are expected on the global market.

from my experience watching the s&p for the past year,iv come to the conclusion that it goes up when it wants to and falls when it wants to,sometimes doing irrational stuff like falling 7 to 10 percent before bouncing up.this happened two or three times over the past year,each time everybody was convinced that doomsday has comed and another financial crisis is round the corner(which is good for me) but it never came.everytime i try to scour google and all the financial sites for information why the s&p is doing what its doing but it seems like everybody has a hundred different ideas but nobody has a clue what is going on.so dont be so happy that the fed did something and nothing happens,chances are the stock market are out of their control and is doing whatever it wants.although i do understand everytime the market crashes a bit,its always linked to some crisis,probably russia or something or the middle east or oil.

i no longer care what the stock market do anymore,if its in a bull run or if its up or down,on a day to day basis or week to week or month to month,cause none of it make sense,i only care when theres bad news or a crisis,like war in other countries,conflict with russia,war in middle east,recessions in other parts of the world,economic crisis in other countries particularly china,commodities crisis,companies in trouble,anything that can send a shock in the markets and send prices going down by 10 or 15 percent.....thats when its a good time to buy some shares......the bigger the crisis the better.otherwise i couldnt give a jackshit what the s&p does cause its all noise.

Er, you idol, warren buffet, the real one says otherwise. (I can't find any low-cost index fund in singapore though, only ETFs.)


“A low-cost index fund is the most sensible equity investment for the great majority of investors,” Buffett told Bogle in “The Little Book of Common Sense Investing.” By periodically investing in an index fund, the know-nothing investor can actually out-perform most investment professionals.”

He wrote to shareholders of his company Berkshire Hathaway in 2014: “My advice to the trustee could not be more simple: Put 10% of the cash in short-term government bonds and 90% in a very low-cost S&P 500 index fund.”

 

[Jah_rastafar_I]

let me start with FOMC tonight, fed will hike rate and at the same time, yellen will talk down USD. she will be careful with her statement to protect the market from crashing and safeguard all investors. note that she has displayed such trait before, so your investment in shares will be safe and for forex traders, you can short USD.

Yellen's message more important than rate hike, experts say

ROFL seriously you dare give advice like this?

The USD is rising now nigger. If you shorted it well you would be in a losing trade.

i think i will stand aside for the time being, i think USD is overbought, read below, jah:


But some expect the dollar could now head lower after the event. "With the Fed so far offering few surprises, the dollar is at risk of losing ground, having been bought in anticipation of today's action which now leaves it susceptible to being sold on the news," said Joe Manimbo, senior market analyst at Western Union Business Solutions.

http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/business/dollar-edges-higher-after/2354316.html

The increase in interest paid on bank reserves, the hike in the discount rate and the lifting of the cap on reverse repurchase agreements, used to drain excess liquidity from the banking system, are tantamount to a stealth tightening of policy!

I suspect it may take the markets a day or two to figure this out.

But the Fed has just become a hawk in dove's clothing.

You see this is the reason why one shouldn't mention about lack of financial experts and then try to give his own flawed analysis and then actually give advice like shorting the USD.

Did any of you follow krafty's advice to short the USD? well if you did you can thank him for fucking you up.

Narong would you dare to listen or follow krafty's analysis?

while you all short, i long. anyway, there is no way to gauge correctly 100%. give and take, if you want free and near 100% accuracy, i suggest you look yourself in the mirror:kma:

As I said before , it is too late by the time you listen to financial advice to act .

You must trust your guts to go contrarian , against the flow if you were to be successful in investing.

The most important rule is to play great defense, not great offense. Everyday I assume every position I have is wrong. I know where my stop risk points are going to be. I do that so I can define my maximum drawdown. Hopefully, I spend the rest of the day enjoying positions that are going in my direction. If they are going against me, then I have a game plan for getting out. - Paul Tudor Jones

good rule but most traders have the psychological block that when they are riding on the wave, they tend to exit and take money, lacking of patience.

im just a passive investor,everything i own i buy and hold for the long term,years.like owning real estate.

so far i only seen two styles of investing that works,and bloggers who are successful and rich from it,one is long term investing in dividend stocks or index funds,the other is real estate.and by successful i mean have portfolios that are mid six figures to low seven figures and have grown significantly over the years......i seen and read tons and tons of threads about trading and swing trading and trend trading and scalping and forex trading and hundreds of traders and iv yet to come across a single soul who can even remotely proof they have made 100k profit from trading or 99 percent has even made a profit.but they are fantastic with the market talk and analysis.

i have been trading for the last 3 years, now, i am slowly crawling towards profit. in trading, do not harbour the thought of being rich but rather making money slowly. i knew someone from simex in the past, he was the pioneer who was sent to chicago then for training. how they cheat and make pple lose money is that every night, all brokers will consolidate the volume and pricing of the counters, they will then decide on which to sell or buy to make money from investors, either pushing up or selling.

bro frenchbrief, i think you are a very bright person. you are still young as you claimed and i personally think you have a very bright future ahead. all the best!

Low energy price is good for economy. Only the few OPEC countries who rely solely in oil will suffer.

I dont think the local banks will increase saving rates. They rather pocket the difference
