Market Outlook as at August 25, 2010

Our FBM-KLCI is displaying the same pattern that we saw in the last quarter of 2007 & first month of 2008 (which I have denoted as 'X'). Back then, the index had a parabolic rise that culminated in a V-shape reversal. We may be witnessing a steady build-up of a parabolic rise over the past few weeks- with the promise of the blow-off stage to come. No one know how long & far this rally can go. However, we know from historical records that parabolic rises culminate in sharp falls. Notice how the MACD & RSI have both broken above their downtrend line (denoted as 'Y'), just like in the last quarter of 2007 (denoted as 'X'). This market may correct & rise again. Like a shooting star, the market may rise until it can rise no more. Be very careful...

Will 2007 Patten Happen Again?

Hi Ai Ling

You may consider QL if it pulled back to its 50-day SMA line at RM4.30. On HELP, I think one should avoid this stock as it has risen too high & is overvalued now.

how do you think of JCY? recently the price is keep dropping...need your advice on this counter...thanks a lot...

Alex Lu said...

Hi Mac

JCY has announced a decent results for QE30/6/2010. However that won't save it from the current selldown because investors are worried about the results for the next few quarters. The demand for HDDs is reported to be quite weak.

Chartwise, we can expect some support at the psychological RM1.00 level. If that level is taken out, it may quickly go to the RM0.95 level (and even the RM0.90 level) before we may see some rebound in the stock.

As always, it is not advisable to try & cut a falling knife unless you have very good knowledge of the company or the sector.
