more importantly, pray hard the republicans dont SABOH the plan by not passing it in congress.

if it gets stuck there or significantly watered down, be prepared for like the other time, another massive wipeout of stocks. bailout has to be big, massive financial shock and awe. nothing else can work out.

16.4000 as of now. STI went down today. but matched by corresponding drop (almost same % wise) in Nikkei.

i wonder will it rise or fall tomorrow

this saturday?

forget it lah, unless there's a sudden bullrun on the STI, you won't see much difference...you better start buying to take advantage of cost averaging, in case STI drops again over the next few days then you cry.

16.48 mustafa

 

[bertina]

seems like mustafa rates are better than the shops at The Arcade.

anyone knows if the actual rate at mustafa is the same as its online forex?
cos im have been monitoring that when it shows 16.3+ last week on mustafa online, the one at suntec is still ard 16.4+

tks

 

[sweet_vanilla]

yes, its the same.

 

[Tsuteki]

yen up again

1000 yen = SG$16.5400

 

[stars87]

down marginally. 16.51.

anyone knows when 1Q profit taking results are out ? im planning to change some before that. expecting 1Q results to devastate the STI.

I may have said that there is a relationship between the STI and the Yen, but I did NOT mean that you can predict the short-term movements of the yen based on the STI.

Please be careful of this if any of you are thinking of changing yen based on where you think the STI is going.
