How much RED for ASX 200 on Monday?

Re: How much RED for ASX200 on Monday?

I'm not convinced it's all doom n gloom yet looking at the weekly XJO chart.

It's too early for me to say whether this is the start of something more sinister....it may or may not be ;)

One should try to keep in mind that we have been in a roaring bullmarket since Mar 2003 and so a correction will come at some stage as I and others have said in other threads.

The way I see it, XJO had support at ~5150 in early April, so the first thing I'll be watching is whether that level is retested soon.

If it is and it fails to hold then the next level of support I'd be looking at is the ~4800-5000 trading range of Jan/Feb this year.

cheers

bullmarket :)

- Tell me why I don't like Mondays

- I see red

- What goes up, must come down

- I get knocked down, I get up again

- Slip sliding away

- Down down deeper and down

What else... :)

Gee all these good songs! I am having a bout of nostalgia :p:
 
Re: How much RED for ASX200 on Monday?

Sheesh, I'm glad a few of you can laugh at the days trading ;) (probably all selling short!)... "kill me" by Adam Sandler was all that was running through my head!!!

I'd be happy if it only slips another 40pts tomorrow!
 
Re: How much RED for ASX200 on Monday?

lets hope it wont be too bad tomorrow, as the fall today was already in anticipation of the resource correction. The biggest fall in AORD I can find on my chart in recent years is 2.1%.
Remember how we had a similar correction earlier this year? It was only about 1.2% down, only............... :(

Re: How much RED for ASX200 on Monday?

Re: How much RED for ASX200 on Monday?

The banks have already recieved all the non-resource money for the last three months as the rest of the industrials got over-priced.

Banks are now overpriced at 4.5% yields and PEs above 15

As rates rise, the PE needs to fall and the yields need to rise above 5.5%

Why buy banks with limited growth and a yield below 5% when you can lend to the government for 5.5% risk free?

Re: How much RED for ASX200 on Monday?

Indeed

Not good for growing lending volumes or margins on loans
 
Re: How much RED for ASX200 on Monday?

BSD,having missed the resourses companies or got out early ,banks I thought meant safety,
but I suppose these are the days when technical knowledge outstrips reading the papers or whatever,never mind,
Had a bit of money thought I`d put it somewhere safe now this happened ,missed it by that much,hahaha
