DBS

gd morning...dow up 300...DBS recover ?
Anyway, dont assume the BB will wait for dividend...normally when results are out and dividend announced ...the price move up to include this.
And retail may rush in to push it up too.  BB may unload several rounds before the payout date. We nver know and cant assume they keep for dividend.

High value blue chips are risky for shortist mainly due to the high value involved.
Good luck .

Also why blue chips are normally not for short traders? high input due to well high price i assume? thanks once again FATABA      ( Date: 03-Feb-2015 16:55) Posted: BB can borrow scripts as in CFD.  as long as they wish ( pay interest on the amount....depend on counters etc) Normally not very long .. a few weeks.  ( whatever when they buy back and cancel the position , and pay off an interest) BUT investing in DBS and other big blue chips are normally not for short traders. ( I am not arguing with anyone here if they wish to short these too) As next week is the results and Banks are certain to declar a dividend....I see them buying them by pushing it low to buy. Anyway ....can get caught if someone come out and buy in ( temasek ?) I am vested. and awaiting patiently for the results. Gd luck

 

Price of DBS travels in waves, u see dips in Oct and Dec immediately after which, a rally upwards higher than the dip.      This time round, the tip has tested supports, and as someone pointed out is now at the tip of the lower bollinger band.

If it follows the same pattern as in Oct & Dec, this time round the rally would bring it up to test new highs.    And the results would help.   

 

tomorrow will be even better....

If currency is working against them, why would they keep them?  " The BB can loan scripts from SGX on those on hand and short them first." = so when do they need to buy back i got some lots..dunno shd i hold anot lol

 

Tomorrow may do a swing up as US mkt gets a boost at opening today.

DBS moves up and down, and past few days have been quite volatile in currency trading, plus negative news on China' s economy (PMI), although there seems nothing to do with DBS.

With the price down, DBS begin to look more attractive to fund managers.      Expect good results, and better quarters ahead as interest rates continue rising.

 

Still holding... but very confused...

 

Bottom should be close by for DBS

Those who bot back same day are honestly small player. The BB can loan scripts from SGX on those on hand and short them first.
For your infor, some of the sellers are big US houses.

BUT DBS result is next tue...which give them ONLY the nex 3/4 days at most. ( as DBS should have a good set of results)

In fact I think it is a good opportunity to buy in ....check it out on your own pls.
Good luck

Looks like it is a game for bank stocks. How low will DBS go before a wave of buying comes on.

DBS clinched Best Bank award.

 

Very strange re the price. No answer

 

Another down day for DBS, while UOB and OCBC gains. What' s brewing?

And to think most analysts pick DBS over UOB and OCBC for this year.....

Kyoto2008      ( Date: 30-Jan-2015 22:28) Posted: CK moving these bank stocks.  There is always one big push or pull at opening, and another delivered at closing, usually in opp directions but humongous quantity too big for retailers.     Need to hibernate and wait for results. 10 Feb. SG mkt is manipulated by CKs.    Fact of life. In the FX mkt, the biggest CKs are the central banks.    Sneaky Swiss National Bank has been buying Euros and dumping USD and Francs to keep their exports competitive without losing control of the brakes.  Biggest CK in the world. hehe.
