What does " Sell in May and Go Away" means?
Credit to internet, Investopedia (good reference from Google search)
" Sell in May and go away" is a well-known financial-world adage. It is based on the historical    underperformance  of some stocks in the " summery" six-month period commencing in May and ending in October, compared to the " wintery" six-month period from November to April. If an investor follows this strategy, they would divest their equity holdings in May (or at least, the late spring) and invest again in November (or the mid-autumn).
Some investors find this strategy more rewarding than staying in the equity markets throughout the year. They subscribe to the belief that, as warm weather sets in, low volumes and the lack of market participants (presumably on vacations) can make for a somewhat riskier, or at a minimum lackluster, market period."

Good morning all,
Fortunately yesterday S-ibeh T-erok I-ndex (STI-left chart) recovered after revisiting last Friday low.
We have fallen behind S+P(right chart) not that we are not familiar with but this time quite pronounced.
Thanks to a return to phase 2 due to a faster spreading variants. Lets pray upcoming report do not cause
further alarm and will not affect an already weak market sentiments.
There is a possibility we may have already bottomed the orders of ups and downs in the days ahead will
be interesting as we form another base for the uptrend to resume(assuming still is as of this writing).
After two days of strong recovery from the U.S. it has pullback a little(my chart on the right has yet to update yst range).
Correction that we have seen and pullback are healthy for a uptrending market as valuation becomes
more attractive.
STI have much catch up to do, obstacle will be higher number of reported case if indeed it happen.
All the br-east

Bro Koala,
Yesterday night rested earlier than usual.
Missed out one more point...
In below chart you can see SGX did not go down in the last few sessions when STI fell more than 100 points.
The stock itself has already corrected much.
Have a nice day!

The science is not clear on the transmission of the vaccinated individuals.  Vaccination is more for protection of oneself from severe symptoms that will require hospitalisation and thus overwhelming medical resources.
Although we all know this, inwardly, with vaccination we do feel a sense of ' superiority' if you may, and perhaps less guarded on distancing and intermingling.  We can see US CDC already recommending no mask in and outdoors.  I' m pretty sure some would interpret that as easing somewhat.  US officials know that with this, there could be spikes and as long as people can coalesce at home and not result in hospital admissions, they can live with it.  Its endemic, and lives hv to go on.

Vaccine the only way to reduce severe illness, death and to achieve herd immunity
SCMP
Fresh local Covid-19 cases in China trigger run on vaccines
 
- Tracers search for &lsquo patient zero&rsquo after clusters reported in Liaoning and Anhui provinces
- Officials under investigation and mass testing under way
Authorities in China have stepped up    controls and residents are lining up to get vaccines after two provinces reported the country&rsquo s first cases of community transmission in over three weeks.
 
Yingkou, a port city in northeast China&rsquo s Liaoning province, reported five confirmed and eight asymptomatic cases as of Saturday.
The cities of Luan and Hefei, in the eastern province of Anhui, reported seven confirmed cases, and seven cases of asymptomatic infection as of Sunday afternoon.
Shenyang, Liaoning&rsquo s capital, also reported one confirmed case on Sunday.
Wu Zunyou, chief epidemiologist at the Chinese Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, said on Saturday night that Yingkou was likely the source of the outbreak even though Luan was the first to report one on Thursday.
Yes true and agree numbers will be higher in coming days so wonder market will react. But after vaccination if asymptomatic will spread?

With more vaccinated also could mean more asymptomatic people walking about...  SG yet to peak.
 
 
Sis,
Ya luckily the world is better prepared with more people vaccinated but unfortunately
the supply were limited and unable to reach other countries earlier.

Think after sometime in a country, the virus will mutate & there will be variants. So scary.
Now they are talking about a Malaysian viriant.
We have 37 community cases today, Taiwan has 206 community case today,  so fast so many leh....

I am now wondering if India will be like China last year exporting its variants all over the world?
For example we don?t know if any fly to U.S. or other countries in the west for vaccination?
I hope not.
Worse case scenerio.😢
Taiwan also can have so many cases.🤦 🏻

Bros & Sis and fans of Riverstone....
Lets try this higher high and higher low concept to idenfity a uptrending stock together..........
Will I buy Riverstone now?
Answer :
1)  For short term trading, maybe yes incase it break up.
2) For position trades, buy & hold, no becuse it hasnt break up.
1) Short term trading - maybe yes but not me.
Friday closed 1.42, say Monday buy at 1.43, resistance recent high at 1.47 and nearest high of 1.52.
If can break both good and will form a higher somewhere at point A.
If cannot break above resistance then your  upside is between 1.47 to 1.52.
2) Buy & hold -No yet.
I will wait for it to break above 1.52 to somewhere label A on the chart and then wait for a correction back down
to somewhere at point B, to form a higher low around 1.30 then buy with a appropriate stop to be determine then.
Scenerio 1 - Short term, maybe you make 8 cts or less if didnt break up.
But also can make more if there is a strong run up after breaking resistance.
Scenerio 2 - Buy hold, let assume it break up to form a higher higher at guessing only say 1.58 for example then correction
back down to say 1.32-138. This time if I buy say at 1.32 to 138 I will be expecting it to go above 1.58 because its already met the uptrending
stock requirement base of higher high and higher low theory. Therefore I.buy with a objective of making more than 20 to 26cts or more.
The different between those 2 scenerios is that short term maybe make 8cts and or more but dunno how much more right.
Whereas for buy hold you buy with an objective of 20-25cts or more.
To each its own, no right no wrong but for me I am incline to wait for scenerio 2 partly the RSI is also weak as in sloping 
downward while prices rose(see shaded area).
