cash out of 1 sp short, keeping only 1 from 2917. This was the one I opened yesterday but the market moved against me.

 

now i am 'clean', reset to original position. Not letting greed get to me.

 

adding to hsbc short. now I sleep.

I think we have a clear ST top ( if I dun jinx myself), Im looking for 2890 test. thereafter very wild swings into 50 days fake break. I am leaning to a major drop, screening across markets globally.

 

I have a bearish outlook. Many simply don't realize that the world has changed. 3-4 generations of industrialization and globalization has lifted many in 3rd world countries, many now possess advanced education and/or capital. The old business model of exporting inflation and pseudo productivity is not coming back. The world in a way is approaching parity, thus real competition begins, including hot wars, because some have to win by all means,

 

Waiting for the last shoe (U.S. markets) to drop.

could go much lower.. I am still short from 1541 and holding it.


Alex, I see what u are talking about on gold. Rejig my model, looking lower but not sure if that low in mid term. Thks for raising.

I think there's a bounce on Mon for me to get out.

some emerging market stocks are beginning to look interesting. I would not long indices for mid to long term, anytime soon. I am also not a broker, nor do have a big position to 'talk my book'. this is only for my weekend musing,  while i wait for dinner. Bump into that really nice lady (my god, those assets) while having lunch.... sharks too chicken to strike up a conversation. was talking to someone from South Africa.

 

these are listed in HK. maybe tomorrow, I will peep into those on LSE. hsbc always my old school sweet heart. I think there's an old book on this 'the taipan' or something.

 

china railway looks interesting. maybe more divergence then prob good for a 2 weeks punt.

 

Sinopec, Petrochina, CNOOC, all bottoming. need to cross check with crude. maybe just trade crude.

 

Razer, gaming console by my classmate. but santa not coming for christmas. likely a short.

 

mining stocks interesting but negative correlation with indices. difficult to choose between going long or short 2 contrarian asset classes. long or short, thats the question.

 

Sands China? no gambling stocks until Chinese New year.

 

China's groupon, ATH, maybe, just maybe for a punt next week.

 

China oilfield, spectacular ATH above ATH! ok shorting it.

 

 

sorry this is highly irrelevant to anyone here. it is for my own record.

change my mind, looking at shorting 5g stocks in hk. looking for U.S. sox to fail 50 day test. prob get announcement on more huawei/tech sanctions. those fools in hk still rioting for small money from foreign agents. guess, 'maximum pressure' still ongoing.
