601-620 of 645
Take a look at the time and sales of this counter at the last few minutes.
At 1658hrs price was push down to $4.21. However at 1659 onwards price push up to $4.24 including after 5.00pm at 1704 hrs . I think there is support to prevent price from dropping

if the proposer went thru, it will be a very nice dividend stock to hold...........
Good show today. 
No hurry, cum if it is below 4.00. 
Now everybody is fearful of this stock. Time to buy when everybody is fearful? Or only buy when they are more fearful?

Strategy is different for a trader vs an investor.     
A trader cuts loss and moves on to an attractive stock to earn back what he/she lost.      The skill set is a good understanding of charting, price monitoring, plus understanding fundamental analysis thoroughly.    He  does not stay invested in a single stock for a long period of time.  
An investor ignores charts and do not monitor prices at all, but has very strong fundamental analysis.  He stays on  investing in a stock for many years, like 10, 20 years maybe.  
There are in between the two extremes.
As I see it, SIA Enginneering could still be a good long term hold simply because it is a good biz.    As mentioned earlier, this co would not pass Benjamin Graham' s criteria for long term hold.    But my own intuition tells me it' s gonna get better ( I could be wrong), simply because oil price is falling and SIA Engineering would benefit greatly from it.   
However, the trader in me would study the charts, cut and buy back when price dips to a low.    Charts can also help to spot recovery mdoes.

It' s really a steep drop today.    Tough on shareholders.

My apologies, SIA Engineering also has a bullish MACD weekly crossover like SATS.
The others are Wilmar Intl, Mapletree Ind Trust.      SPH, SATs
Kyoto2008 ( Date: 01-Nov-2014 15:32) Posted:
Having cleared the BG air, I could consider SIA Eng as a recovery stock, however, for safety, SATs is more attractive due to the fact that it has a MACD crossover on the weekly chart, and positive upswing.
The range of upswing, however, may not be attractive as some other counters with similar MACD weekly crossover.  These are all considered safer investments for mid term.

Actually, I read the fool article, it is not very precise, a little alak here and there. When you use Benjamin Graham' s name, you gotta stick to his principles, the title is wd BG buy SIA engineering.
Now looking at the fail for 5, 6, 7, the answer is no.
That' s what I mean when I say analysts always paint one picture to colour their own argument, using heavy names.

Never did see Benjamin Graham gripe about current ratio. 
I think acid test ratio is more critical for purposes of assessing liquidty, and for that I' d go further to scrutinise accounts receivable.   
Not sure where the fool pick this up, let me check my Benjamin Graham book for clues.      I never do trust analysts, they like to sensationalise and how lian, coz it' s not their money being invested.

However, working in SIA&rsquo s favour is the apparently low risk that an investment in the company carries. The company carries negligible debt of only S$25m, which is peanuts for a company with a book value of around S$1.4b. It also pales into insignificance when compared to the net current asset value of the company, which stands at just over S$930m.
The healthy balance sheet leaves SIA with a current ratio of three, which is comfortably above the value of two that Benjamin Graham would hope to see.
