x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	If you have capital to invest in equities but dunno what to BUY & HOLD and are open to suggestions, I would recommend that you divide your army into groups of 30%...30%.... 20% and 20%. Order 30% of your troops to attack DBS. Order another 30% to attack UOB. Then order 20% to attack Ascendas and the remaining 20% to attack Mapletree Industrial Trust. This is purely for BUY & HOLD only. Meaning no contra and absolutely no use of margin. Buy only what you can pay up fully and HOLD. The banks will continue to do well into the next quarter. Why ar ? A rising interest rate environment is very good for banks. Higher interest rate means Net Interest Margin or NIM for banks also rises in tandem which translates into higher profits. US Fed raised interest rate on 1 Feb 2023 and again on 22 Mar 2023. These 2 increases will uplift the banks' bottomline for the Jan to Mar quarter and will be announced in the May reporting season. As such, no surprises if we see banks reporting even higher earnings and maintaining or improving on their quarterly dividends. So going forward for at least another 2 quarters, banks will continue to see healthy growth. The Fed said there will be one more interest rate hike before they pause. There is no FOMC Meeting in April. The next one is in May. So that last rate hike will likely take place in May. Which will again uplift banks' earnings for the Apr to Jun quarter. The Fed also said there will be no interest rate cut in 2023. Meaning interest rate will stay high for the rest of the year. Which can only be blue skies for banks' earnings all the way to the end of the year. Which is why if you have the capital to park in stocks and you dont need this money for the next 8 months, you can overweight on DBS and UOB.  Having said the above, how well your troops will do in each of the 4 recommended stocks will ultimately depend on one very important factor - your entry price.  I have shown you their charts, their Highs and Lows and possible entry points. Buy slowly and buy in tranches to give yourself the ability to achieve lower average prices. All the best to each of you generals out there and May The Force Be With You.  .

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	This one is paying dividend next month in April 2023. Dividend is more than 3 cts but less than 4 cts per quarter. As long as you can make 5 cts.... 1 ct to cover brokerage and 4 cts for you, you will outperform the REIT Manager.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Stress in the banking system appeared to ease in recent days, however. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said Tuesday that    large withdrawals from regional  banks have " stabilized." " The U.S. banking system is sound and resilient," the Fed' s monetary policy statement said. ..................they raise rate because their study shows the system can take it...............not really the 2008 financial crisis as this time is different............. Some banks collapse bcos they are badly managed.........see for yourself Credit Suesse, SVB , Silvergate bank. etc... .........Already some time has pass..everyday system is getting better............... ...........time to add again .......

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	If from 2.77 she is going to show us 3.00 by end-April, that' s also a good run of 23 cts.  Buy only what you can hold. Dont use leverage for this trade. All the best for bravehearts.

Like dat hor, buyers will take it as positives and which means prices will unlikely to revisit their lows. We may have to accept that the trading range move up liao if we do not want to continue to chiak ka kee so often.

People have holding power and hence not willing to sell at lower prices. At the same time those looking to buy are giving up waiting for low low prices which will never come. They are coming out earlier and higher to bid up prices. Hence, a new supply and demand equilibrium is reached. So yes, when sellers are not willing to sell low, the only way for transactions to take place is if buyers offer higher prices. For now, there is still a range to play. Buy at the low of the range, you do have a window to sell at the higher end of the range. However, as this range becomes narrower and narrower, there will come a time when there is no more room to play ler. Then something has to give. On either side. Or both.
