Daily Market Notes May 24, for MAY 23 yesterday
PSEI 7,314.38 -70.69 (-0.96%) TURNOVER 11.89 b BLOODY HELL Domino Effect of selling is all but natural in the highs. What started in Wall Street rippled to Japan, then off to Europe, then back to US. To review some of the bullet points from my recent take on the market: My position remains. The market has risen quite high now, and though I believe that any … [Read More...]
LN’s UCC’s May 23
Volatility in the markets is back, hence we may have to be very cautious before entering any trades less we get caught in the mirage of a correction that sometimes we can not take cover... The US markets were up already in the early sessions yesterday, however comments from Fed's Big BEN about possible easing out of QE3 did not help any, and we were down 80 at the close... Another strong market … [Read More...]
LN’s UCC’s May 22
The market just continues to chug higher, up by another 50+ points... Of course, when the index is up, the blues normally would be the ones that will be up...

PSEi 7,385.07 +57.49 (0.78%) TURNOVER 8.71B Wall Street started weak and indecisive at first. Gaining at the open yet retracing back to the red, before about a half a percent rise at the close just to show that the bulls have survived yet another round. It was a normal day at the PSE. Property/holding firms continued their ascent due to the removal of the 40% foreign ownership cap, PJ … [Read More...]

PSEi 7,297.21 +51.83 (0.30%) TURNOVER 6.84B UP FEELS like SLEEPY DOWN YET Another placement, this time from MWIDE's placing of shares due to subscription of Citicore Holdings Investment at P20/share, 118m shares. MEG was one of the eyebrow raisers, falling to as much as 3.85 before a spectacular recovery to almost 4 peoss! ALI represented the big chunk of the index gains, as … [Read More...]
LN’s UCC’s May 21
The market added another 50 pts, and making a late comeback were the property sector, which currently has led the market and the index's ascent to mere immortality... The two leading property issues continue to be strong - SMPH and ALI... While ALI is trading new highs, SMPH is looking to do the same... Though it was force close today at P20.70, I do believe SMPH is well poised to surge into … [Read More...]

PSEi 7,275.38 -4.49 (-0.06%) TURNOVER 6.80B So Much Carnage part two The PSEi now seems unaffected by Wall Street continuing to register new highs, probably since we were ahead of the pack for so long. The best we could muster was up 28, which was quickly eradicated into flat status. Tensions with Taiwan are just too lame a reason but more of an excuse, methinks. MORE MSCI … [Read More...]

How much is the Vatican worth?
Now that Pope Benedict XVI is resigning his post soon due to age, a lot of attention is now focused on the vatican once again. Aside from his health, could there be any other reasons plaguing the vatican? Money problems the vatican butler threatens to reveal? In my scouring the net, I am not one inch closer to any figure, as there are as much conspiracy theorists supposing that the Vatican … [Read More...]

How much is Lance Armstrong worth before and after confessing on doping?
Lance Armstrong was worth a lot before confessing on doping. $125 Million dollars earned from various sponsorships from his 7 championships. He was still worth his value in news as the Armstrong broadcast on Oprah itself could well exceed the 3.5 million viewers for that show. He will still have a lot left over after some of his bounty is returned. At the peak of his career, Lance was one … [Read More...]

How much is the Disney Acquisition of Lucasfilm really worth to Disney?
By now, everyone knows that the $4.05 billion acquisition of Lucasfilm by Walt Disney was a major coup for both sides. For one, Lucasfilms now has the money and reach to further its products perhaps well into future generations. Disney, on the other hand, has won a stable solid franchise with loyal enduring fanbase both young and old, which will span not just into new Star Wars movies, but … [Read More...]

Now that the evasi0n jailbreak is days away, iOS 6 users of Iphone 5, ipad mini, ipad 4 and 5 and the like are wondering what to replace the recently shutdown Installous with?
