THANKS TO YOU ALL-MY PAGEVIEWS SKYROCKETED IN JAN2012,ONE MONTH ALONE is EQUAL TO 6MONTHS OF

PAGEVIEWS!!A BIG THANK YOU

SINCE THIS THREAD "SUMMARY OF ALL SP500 UPTRENDS AND CONSOLIDATIONS" THREAD IS SO POPULAR,THE HIGHEST VIEWERSHIP,I PUT IT IN THE FRONT PAGE

SUMMARY OF ALL SP500 uptrends and consolidations

UPTRENDS-

1. Mostly 10weeks,although some may be 9,11,12.how to recognize?--uptrend "mysteriously" maintained by a diagonal uptrendline connecting the lows of that 10weeks uptrend

2. 1st and last(10th) week always end in surges of aorund 3-6%with the least 1st week gain was 2.7%.The humpy uptrend will "mysteriously" start and end with surges up.

3. If the (X-1)th 10+weeks end below a fibo of the 1576-666 range,THEN the next,Xth, 10+weeks will end AT THAT FIBO.

4. If the (X-1)th 10+weeks end ABOVE a fibo of the 1576-666 range,then the NEXT,Xth, 10+weeks will end AT THE NEXT HIGHER FIBO.

5. Every year's end, at the last trading day of the year,sp500 will end near a fibo of 1576-666 range.

6. Every 10+weeks uptrend will start AFTER a double testing of the diagonal uptrend line formed by the humps from july 13th week 2009.

7. The uptrend in the secular bear market,before breakout 1576, will be a "humpy" ride,whereby i forecast a total of 4 humps to test 1576.

8. After the sp500 breaks out of the 1576 resistance,the diagonal uptrendline will be much sharper than the uptrendline of the 4 humps.

9. The peaks of each hump will occur at AROUND 350-360 POINTS ABOVE THE CORRECTION TESTED FIBONACCI.

10. 2009 REPLICATE 2003,2010 REPLICATE 2004,2011 REPLICATE 2005,SO ON--I mean the closing values and their respective fibo,

CONSOLIDATIONS-CORRECTIONS AND RETRACEMENTS

1. Every correction will have one week of huge plunge about 100points in sp500

2. every Long/HUGE weekly plunge of around 5-8% in the sp500 will be met with a return to the start BEFORE the huge plunge(weekly open) of THAT LONG WEEKLY DOWN CANDLEBODY in 23 to 24 weeks

3. After the peak of each hump has been achieved,there will come a plunge BACK to the fibo of 1576-666 range.---------

eg. 1st hump ended at 1219,near 61.8%,then sp500 plunged back to retest the 38.2%,before the NEXT hump will be formed

eg. 2nd hump peaked at 1370,near the 78.6%,then sp500 plunged back to retest the 50%..so on..

1st correction went to the 38.2%,1013, lowest 1010 and built a base around 1065

-took 24 weeks to reach the open of the HUGE weekly plunge of 120points,week of MAY 3RD 2010

-dropped a total of 210points-2nd week from the top of the 4th 10+weeks uptrend pattern 1217,was the huge weekly plunge

-took 8weeks to hit the lowest point 1010

2nd correction went to 1074 lowest,BUT built a base around the 50% fibo,1120.

-took 23 weeks to reach the open pf the 2nd HUGE weekly plunge of 120points,week of August 1, 2011

-dropped a total of 270points from 1344 and 300points from the HEAD peak 1370

-the huge weekly drop also happened in the 2nd week from the 5th 10+weeks uptrend pattern close peak of 1344.,the LEFT SHOULDER OF THE head and shoulders

-took 9weeks to hit the lowest point 1074

These Shipping Stocks Have Room to Run: Maritime Expert
Published: Tuesday, 27 Oct 2009 12:58 PM ET

By: JeeYeon ParkCNBC News Associate
The Baltic Dry Index, a leading economic indicator used by market insiders to gauge gloobal demand for goods, is up 300 percent, quadrupling in value. Does it have more room to run and what does it say about the overall economy? Doug Mavrinac, head of maritime research at Jeffries, shared his insights.
“The index is a relatively good predictor and indicator of where the economy is,” Mavrinac told CNBC.
“Based on where rates are today, it’s not oversupplied and the increase that we’ve seen today is primarily due to the Chinese importing record levels of iron ore and of coal. So it’s fairly indicative of what’s going on globally.”
Mavrinac said the dry bulk shipping stocks still have more room to run.
“It’s important to make the distinction between the container shipping companies and the dry-bulk shipping companies,” he said.
“The container shipping industry is one where it is plagued by overcapacity…But in the dry-bulk shipping market, it’s a much different market.”
Recommendations:
Mavrinac is “overweight” the Dry Bulk Shipping sector and has a “buy” rating on Diana Shipping

highly recommended!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
a recap--those who know me before march 2009 will probably have received my messages.mar 18th 2009 was the day i invented ZACK's theory of stockmarket manipulation in a downtrend to identify the market's final bottom.i keep my sms as proof so that those who do not know me then and doubt me, i will show it to you in person.thanks all.

i wonder why the analysts keep on saying that 2700 is safe entry, why not 1455????OR 1500s??
WHY AT THAT TIME NO ONE IS SO BULLISH OTHER THAN ME?
that is because i saw THE SAME TREND IN ALL DOWN TRENDS, namely 1998, 2001, 2003 and now.

THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Saturday, October 24, 2009

YESTERDAY DROP WAS EXPECTED..it drop out of the diagonal uptrend line but should maintain in that range to 10100--the base of the inverse h and S should provide enough support.

IF IM NOT WRONG, THE US FUTURES ON MONDAY SHOULD BE UP.IF US FUTURES ARE DOWN, IT WILL BE THE USUAL TRICK, US MKT SHOULD OPEN LOWER THEN GO ALL THE WAY UP.

YOURS SINCERELY

my darling PINPOINT HEDGE FUND NEWS IN THE MEDIA:

Sept 2009


2 Pinpoint Funds Nominated for 8th AsiaHedge Annual Awards

September 24, 2009


We are pleased to announce that Pinpoint China Fund and Pinpoint Asia Strategies Fund have been nominated for this year’s AsiaHedge awards.


Pinpoint China Fund was nominated in the category of best “China” fund, and Pinpoint Asia Strategies Fund was nominated in the category of best “Multi Strategy” fund. Awards results will be announced on 22nd October in Hong Kong.

While the awards’ nominee and winner selection methodology* is one of many ways to assess hedge fund quality, we appreciate the acknowledgement by AsiaHedge Awards of our funds’ performance over the last year which included some very difficult times. The Pinpoint team are proud of such achievements and continue to do our best to build upon them. We are also very grateful for the continuing support from all our investors.




* - Winners are decided using an established methodology based upon a combination of Sharpe Ratios and returns over the relevant time period. Nominations are decided by those funds that achieve the strongest Sharpe Ratios over the 12 months prior to the event (from October 2008 through the end of September 2009), so long as they also beat the median returns in their relevant peer groups. The eventual winners will be funds which achieve the best returns, as long as they also achieve Sharpe Ratios within 25% of the best of the nominees. All funds wishing to be considered must also have a reputable, independendent third party administrator.

Pinpoint Funds Beat Peers With China Stocks, Bonds (Update1)
Share Email Print A A A
By Bei Hu
Aug. 25 (Bloomberg) -- Pinpoint Investment Advisor Ltd., a hedge fund manager of $560 million, returned as much as four times its Asian peers this year through July with profits from a rebound in Chinese stocks and debt securities.
The $70 million Pinpoint Opportunities Fund, which gained 85 percent in the period, invested about half its assets in convertible and high-yield bonds, including those of Chinese property developers, said Duanmu Yongshan, Pinpoint’s Hong Kong- based chief marketing officer. The $300 million Pinpoint China Fund returned nearly 51 percent in the period, he said.
Stock-focused hedge funds, the hardest hit in Asia amid last year’s market slump, are leading the recovery in 2009. The Eurekahedge Asia Long/Short Equities Hedge Fund Index returned 19 percent this year through July, the best-performing strategy among eight tracked by the Singapore-based data provider. The index fell 22 in 2008, the worst since at least 2000.
“We think fundamentals will play an increasingly more important role relative to liquidity for the second half,” said Duanmu in an interview on Aug. 24.
The China Fund, which targets companies with a market value of more than $2 billion in Greater China, bet on a recovery in Chinese property and banking stocks it bought, he said. He declined to name specific companies.
Falling Volatility
The Hang Seng China Enterprises Index, which tracks 43 Chinese companies listed in Hong Kong, rose 48 percent this year after losing 51 percent of its value last year.
The funds’ gains this year showed “the fundamentals-drive approach is still richly rewarded by the market when it is not in a panic mode,” said Duanmu.
The 100-day price volatility of the Hang Seng China Enterprises Index more than halved after reaching its highest in at least nine years in January, Bloomberg data show.
Pinpoint China Fund, led by the company’s Chief Investment Officer Wang Qiang and Huang Yong, lost 35 percent of its net asset value last year, the first annual loss since its June 2005 birth. The Opportunities Fund, started in August 2007 and overseen by Huang and Rubin Jiang, declined 43 percent in 2008, according to investor newsletters. The fund focuses on small- and medium-sized Greater China companies.
“Fundamental-driven research is always relevant, but last year showed people that you cannot rely on fundamentals alone,” said Simon Potter, a Hong Kong-based investment analyst with Triple A Partners Ltd., which provides startup capital and marketing services to hedge funds.
Property, Banking
The China Fund achieved the gains this year with about 50 percent net exposure -- the difference between the amount that funds wager on rising and falling stocks -- said Duanmu. More than half of the fund’s return in the first half was driven by investments in the Chinese property, banking and internet gaming industries, he added.
Pinpoint from November through the first quarter ramped up investments in Chinese property companies, which had been battered last year by the global market rout as well as increased domestic taxes and interest rates to curb overheating in the industry.
“We felt the industry was seriously undervalued,” said Duanmu. “We live in China and could follow regional situation and statistics more closely. We beat the market to it.”
Hong Kong-quoted shares of Sino-Ocean Land Holdings Ltd., Beijing’s largest developer, more than doubled this year after slumping 64 percent in 2008. Shares of Agile Property Holdings Ltd., a Guangzhou-based builder listed in Hong Kong, surged 138 percent this year.
Bonds
The funds started to build up investments in Chinese banking stocks in the first quarter as de-leveraging and market panic forced other investors to sell, Duanmu said. They also brought shares in Chinese internet gaming companies, betting on increasing popularity of their products and services, he said.
Convertible and other bonds accounted for 63 percent of the Opportunities Fund’s investments and 68 percent of profits in the month of June, according to a Pinpoint investor newsletter. The fund had no bond holdings before October 2008, Duanmu said. About half of its convertible bond holdings were issued by Chinese property developers, he added.
JPMorgan’s Asia non-investment grade credit index gained 33 percent this year after last year’s 18 percent decline.
The rally prompted Pinpoint to free investors in the Opportunities Fund from July 1 from a two-year lockup of their investments introduced at the beginning of the year. It also reopened the Opportunities Fund to new investors.
Both funds sold borrowed shares of Chinese building materials makers, such as producers of cement, believing they’re overvalued with an unattractive business model under pressure from increasing competition, Duanmu said.
Pinpoint trimmed its banking and property-related investments in the second quarter after their recent rallies and instead increased investments in consumption-related industries less affected by overall market moves. It also swapped some of its stock holdings for bonds issued by the same companies to protect itself from an equity market correction, Duanmu added.

Price setters give Pinpoint edge
24/05/2006

Sunny Li's bets on rice liquor and tourism to China's fabled Yellow Mountain have produced a 48 percent return this year, making his US$50 million (HK$390 million) hedge fund the best performer of those that invest in the country.
Li's Pinpoint China Fund outpaced rivals and the nation's stock indexes by focusing on companies with near monopolies and brands that allow them to control prices - and by calling once a week to ensure they stayed that way.
That's important in a country where overinvestment has led to a glut of some products, trapping companies in a cycle of price-cutting, he said.
"The flip side of China's cheap goods is that it's hard for companies to turn market dominance into returns for shareholders," said Li at his office in Hong Kong. "Cutthroat competition among companies means we have to make sure the financial landscape of those we invest in doesn't change."
Finding a winning formula to picking shares is especially important in China, where only about 5 percent of the more than 1,400 stocks have gained over the past five years. Mainland shares listed in Hong Kong, where Li also invests, have done better over the same period. All but three of the 38 so- called H shares in the Hang Seng China Enterprises Index have risen.
While this year's 43 percent rally by the Shanghai Composite Index has made it easier to find performers, the mainland market may fail to hold its gains if history is any guide. The Shanghai Composite has surged 580 points since December 5. The last rally of that size preceded a 14-month, 40 percent rout that ended in July last year. The index is 26 percent below its 2001 peak.
The Shanghai-based Pinpoint China Fund, owned by Pinpoint Asset Management, was ranked the top China hedge fund at the end of last month, said Eurekahedge, a Singapore-based hedge fund research company. It's followed by Dynasty China Mainland Fund, managed by Dynasty Management in Shanghai, and Martin Currie China Hedge Fund, run by Edinburgh-based Martin Currie Investment Management.
"The risks of investing into China's stock market haven't changed much," said Liu Feng, an executive director at Shenzhen-based Century Securities.
"They include financial frauds and regulatory uncertainty. You have to be either local or very familiar with the companies, their products and brands to ensure your investment will pay off."
Li is one of a new generation of former equity brokers who are taking advantage of the growth in hedge funds in China. The amount of money managed by funds located both inside and outside the mainland has grown more than eightfold in the past five years to about US$1.5 billion. The amount is 1.9 percent of the US$80 billion held by Asia Pacific hedge funds.
The Pinpoint fund has more than doubled its return on an investment last June in Huangshan Tourism Development, which has a stranglehold on tourism to the famous mountain in the company's base in Anhui province.
In February, Pinpoint bought Kweichow Moutai, a mainland maker of rice liquor. Shares in the Renhuai, Guizhou- based company, which had advanced 5.8 percent in the previous six months, have almost doubled since the purchase.
Yunnan Baiyao Group has almost doubled since Pinpoint's investment this year. Li said the fund may buy more shares in the Kunming, Yunnan-based company because of its dominant share of the niche market in baiyou, a traditional white powder used to treat wounds.
To hedge against the risk of the A-share market collapsing, Pinpoint is shorting Barclays' iShares Asia Trust Index, a Hong Kong exchange-traded fund that tracks the performance of 50 large-capitalization stocks listed in China. Short selling of yuan-denominated A shares is illegal.
Unlike mutual funds, hedge funds can short sell stocks or use derivatives to improve performance.
In a short trade, investors sell a borrowed security, betting the price will fall and they can buy it back, pocketing the difference. Derivatives such as futures contracts are based on an underlying product, like copper.
Last year, the Shanghai benchmark fell 8.3 percent. Hedge funds that invest in Greater China, which takes in Taiwan and Hong Kong, gained on average 7.2 percent, according to Eurekahedge.
The Pinpoint fund also shorted Hopewell Holdings, which runs one of the busiest toll roads in southern China, after buying shares in toll-road operator Shenzhen Expressway in early March. Shenzhen Expressway has returned 43 percent, while Hopewell Holdings has gained 10 percent this year.
The Shanghai-based fund shunned auto stocks such as Denway Motors, which makes cars in China with Honda Motor, and Brilliance China Automotive Holdings - Bayerische Motoren Werke's partner - as rising competition forced them to cut prices even as sales of vehicles rose.
Pinpoint hasn't always been right. The fund began short selling copper when prices on the London Metal Exchange reached about US$4,800 a metric ton, Li said. Once the contract advanced to about US$6,500 he cut his losses. The metal reached a record US$8,600 a ton on May 11.
Hedge funds investing in the Greater China region returned 24 percent this year through the end of April, three times the average gains for Asia as a whole, according to Eurekahedge.
"We think the China domestic market has just started its bull turn even though it has rallied over 40 percent since the beginning of the year," Li said.
Reforms to convert state-owned shares into tradable stock "will make it one of the most interesting and rewarding markets in the next 10 years." BLOOMBERG

AINT WHAT I SAY COME TRUE AGAIN??
CHECK BELOW FOR PROOF..
I THINK PLEASE DO INTRO MY BLOG FOR MORE WOMEN TO BE MORE SERIOUS IN MONEY MAKING THINGS INSTEAD OF FIGHTING OVER JEALOUSY!!
OH PLEASE!!!
Posted on 02 Jun 2009
'Girl in provocative loose shorts distracts my hubby while he's driving'

A STOMPer's husband was distracted by this girl's skimpy shorts while driving. They were at a Tampines Street junction when they saw the girl. The STOMPer says:"My husband could not concentrate on his driving when we were at the junction of Tampines Street."This young girl was dressed so scantily, and carried a fake LV bag."As the wind blew, her shorts 'opened' and showed her butt in bright daylight, about 12 noon."

I THINK REALLY SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH FEMALES HERE, PLUS THE VIDEO OF A SINGAPOREAN AUNTY FIGHTING WITH A CHINA WOMAN IN BUS OVER WEARING OF SHORT SKIRT
Strange woman with cane strikes women in shorts at Ang Mo Kio market by Beh Yuan Hui Sat, Oct 17, 2009 The Daily Chilli NO short pants on the streets!A sexagenarian has been heading to the streets and caning women who wear short pants.The woman has been seen loitering at the market and hawker centre near some flats in Ang Mo Kio, Singapore.Holding a rotan in her hands, the woman would cane any female in short pants that she came across.The republic's Lianhe Wanbao reported that the sexagenarian would also scold the women as she caned them."Why are you wearing shorts? You must be caned for wearing this," she said in Hokkien.On Thursday, the woman has raised her rotan on a hawker.The hawker, who was annoyed by the old woman's act, had attempted to stop her but was still whipped.Her mother saw this and went to her aid. The mother and daughter managed to stop the old woman and forced her onto the ground.They called the police later.

I SINCERELY THINK WOMEN MUST GET THEMSELVES MORE IMMERSED IN SHARES AND BUSINESS TO GET OVER SUCH PETTY ISSUES OF JEALOUSY......
