BJP leader Subramanian Swamy on Wednesday filed an application in the Delhi High Court seeking initiation of contempt proceedings against the Centre for interfering with the “due course of judicial proceedings” by making “false, contrary to records” statements with a malafide intent in the AirAsia matter.

What next, folks? Hmmmmmmmmmm..!!

Folks, will the critical support level at 2.50 hold? Are you buying a disaster on its way down thinking you are averaging your costs?

Careful now! Hahahahahahahah!!

For the first time in memory, AirAsia’s 4Q profit was essentially flat QoQ, despite the seasonal peak. 4Q13 core net profit was down 42% yoy despite an 11% rise in ASK capacity, as RASK fell 17% yoy to 14.36 sen on the back of weak pricing. The last time 4Q RASK was lower than this was in4Q09, when jet fuel was 40% cheaper.

Careful now! AA was trading below Rm1.30 in the 4Q09. Hahahahahahah!!

In Indonesian the upcoming elections in the second and third quarter of 2014 may put downward pressure on the Rupiah. The outlook for first quarter of 2014 is positive as forward loads in Indonesia are higher compared to the previous year with average fares slightly lower than the previous year.

Investors become emotionally attached to a stock and overlook the company's shortcomings. Whatever the reason loving a stock, separate your emotions from the hard reality that it may be time to sell.

So folks? Hahahahahahahahahahah!!

In Thailand, tourism has been impacted by the country’s political unrest. The government decided to declare a state of emergency in order to enforce law and order and over 40 countries issued travel advisories which was the key element that affected tourism in Thailand. Forward loads in Thailand are lower than the prior year with average fares also lower than the prior year.

The big questions:
Will weak Q4 results carry over into Q1FY14, folks?
Is the stock relentless tendency to regress towards its long-term mean, below $2?

Careful now!! Hahahahahahahah!!

In Malaysia, forward loads for the remaining months of the first quarter of 2014 are higher than in the prior year with base fares slightly lower than the prior year.

So will weak Q4 results carry over into Q1FY14, folks? Remember folks, shares of stock lose value when company profits drop or investors believe that company profits will drop.

How? Hahahahahahahahah!!

You won't get them all right!

Even when the warning signs are there, sometimes it still can be hard to let go of a stock. Ideally, you sell a stock when it's up so you can make a profit. But sometimes you have to cut your losses and sell when a stock is down.

So how now, folks? Face the facts and move on. It is wise to direct your anger towards problems not people, to focus your energies on answers not excuses.

Is this the right time to sell?

Sometimes investors use technical analysis to gauge when to sell shares. But there is no proof these signals are accurate over time.

Among the more commonly used technical signals are the 200-day moving average and the support line. With both, you're supposed to sell when a stock's price falls below a certain point regardless of what's going on with the company's fundamentals.

Time to sell?

The stock's not keeping up. The market's rallying, but your stock isn't. This can be a sign to sell, especially for popular or trendy stocks that tend to move in sync with the market.

For example, if stock was $4, drops to $2 but doesn't bounce back, sell. Yes folks, the truth hurts!

Time to sell? Investors have short memories!!

The stock's too hot. If a company's stock price is soaring but its fundamentals, such as earnings growth, aren't following suit, it's time to sell. A stock with an especially high price-earnings ratio may be the victim of investors' unrealistic expectations.

If the price jumps but the earnings keep up, you won't have to sell. This method can help give you the discipline to dump the stock before it becomes overpriced.

When to sell a stock?

A change in the company's fundamentals. If a company's earnings stop growing, if its top management is forced out, if it stops creating new products, or its products aren't receiving regulatory approval, the company's shares could be headed for a fall.

The truth hurts, folks!

Time to sell?

Can there be too much of a good thing? There certainly can in the market. When stocks are pushed way past their true value, they are often set up for a fall. Selling an over-valued stock is certainly preferable to buying an over-valued stock.

How? Heheheheheheh!!

The Best Time to Sell

This is the investor’s signal to sell. The investor bought the company because of its fundamentals and its business plan. When something changes and the company loses its way, the investor has to re-examine whether it is the same company or not.

Hmmmmmm..!!

Five reasons why stocks will fall

1. The first reason is that most stocks have gone up an awful lot over the past five years

2. It should be no surprise that many investors and traders have decided to take some money off the table

3. The market has been extremely volatile of late, going up a lot one day, and down about as much on the second. An increase in volatility usually precedes a drop in stocks, as market participants rush to get out of the way by selling en masse

4. The last reason is that perennial fear: geopolitics. In this instance, it is what looks to be a renewal of the Cold War between the United States and Russia. Lots of economies in Europe and elsewhere are dependent on us and Russia for both imports and exports. A new Cold War could put the kibosh on such trade.

5. Economic uncertainty in China will hurts recovery of EMs

Only when the tide goes out do you discover who's been swimming naked! Hope that is not you, folks! Hahahahahahahah!!

Folks, AA with it struggling low airfares, reported flat Q4 year-on-year revenue, which is unusual for AirAsia, as Q4 is a peak season due to the holidays.

This is despite a 14% increase in passengers carried to 5.91 bln for Q4FY13. Will weak Q4 results carry over into Q1FY14?

So will the rally continue? Remember folks, risk comes from not knowing what you're doing! How? Hehehehehehehehehe!!

Beware of the little expenses; a small leak will sink a great ship. Careful now! Heheheheheheheh!!

Should you find yourself in a chronically leaking boat, energy devoted to changing vessels is likely to be more productive than energy devoted to patching leaks.

Now the big question: will weak Q4 results carry over into Q1FY14? Careful now!! Hahahahahahahahahah!!

Never fall in love with a stock as its not going to be a faithful & loyal lover. Dump your stock if its not faithful!

But why are you still keeping the unfaithful lover? Wakakakakakakakak!!

If a business does well, the stock eventually follows. But how now? Hahhahahahahah!!

AirAsia may suffer fare deflation for at least the next two years as the current heavy competition could prevent it from passing through to passengers the 9% rise in landing charges from January 2014 onwards, the impending 9-11% rise in airport passenger service charges in February and the 6% GST from April 2015 onwards.

So will weak Q4 results carry over into Q1FY14? Investors have short memories!! Hahahahahahahah!!

Folks, yield pressure will persist in 2014. The weakness in Malaysia was augmented by the collapse in Indonesia’s bottomline as yields also fell from competition and the rupiah depreciated.

Fall in base yield as competition hit hard, coupled with a weakening of the ringgit, which lifted AirAsia‟s substantial US$ cost base.

So will weak Q4 results carry over into Q1FY14? Hahahahahahhahahah!!

AirAsia is positive of its prospects for the first quarter of 2014 and the remainder of the year. But the average fare for Q4 was down 18% at RM 158 compared to RM 192 last year.

The big question: Will weak Q4 results carry over into Q1FY14?

In Asia, investors are hoping Chinese data on industrial output, retail sales and urban investment due on Thursday might offer some clarity on where the economy is heading.

So folks, buy, hold or sellllllllll...? Hahahahahahahahahah!!

USD/MYR

Prev Close: 3.2800
Open: 3.2915
Bid: 3.2863
Ask: 3.2871

Careful now folks, the weak ringgit will still dent AirAsia’s earnings as most of their costs are borne in US dollars, specifically for fuel!

Remember folks, investors are pulling out of Cfinancial markets where there’s an economic slowdown and a lot of uncertainties.

The outflow of capital from China will not end until investors stop seeing all the headlines about China indicating the country’s growth is faltering.

Redemptions accelerated in March as overseas shipments dropped 18.1& in the biggest decline since August 2009, compared with analysts’ median estimate for a 7.5% increase. How?

Exchange-traded funds focused on China are posting the world’s biggest outflows amid concern economic growth is slowing.

Official data over the weekend showed the steepest slide in exports since 2009 and the slowest inflation in 13 months, highlighting the challenges for Premier Li Keqiang in achieving this year’s economic-growth target of 7.5 percent. China had its first onshore bond default after Shanghai Chaori Solar Energy Science & Technology Co., a solar-panel maker, said last week it would fail to pay interest on notes due March 2017.

How now, folks? Hold, sell or buy? Hahahahahahahah!!

Asian stock markets were set to turn lower on Wednesday as economic uncertainty in China and the United States combined with political tensions in Ukraine to keep investors sidelined.

Careful now, folks! Hahahahahahahaha!!

Folks, of course AA is cheap for a reason and will stay cheap for months to come as theirs slumping profit margins remain a problem for stock market.

So will the rally continue? Heheheheheheheh!!

Folks, the weak ringgit will still dent AA’s earnings as a weak ringgit is not good for airlines in Malaysia, as most of their costs are borne in US dollars, specifically for fuel & borrowings.

Critical support level at Rm2.45 next! If broken then the next downside support will be at Rm2.33 & below Rm2.00

Folks, the biggest hurdle to the valuation trade is market momentum that could saddle funds with big short term losses.

Investors will start looking at valuations again and see there is lot of value. The time frame? 6 months? 12 months? Not less than that, folks!

But folks, no one is looking at valuations but technical & fundamentals now. Valuation wise you would want to be long but no one wants to grab a falling knife. Would you, folks? Heheheheheheh!!

Folks, falls in currencies real are a worry, eroding foreign investors' returns from local stocks. Companies from the EMs can sustain return on equity (ROE) levels only by taking more debt. Remember folks, ROE measures how much profit a firm makes with shareholder's money.

It would be inaccurate to perceive Emerging Markets equities as cheap relative to returns they generate because their quality of RoE is deteriorating more rapidly than developed markets.

So how? Investors have short memories!

Folks, of course some of these stocks are cheap for a reason and will stay cheap for years to come as theirs slumping profit margins remain a problem for stock markets.

Will AA be one of them? Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.......how??

Late Sep 2012, Tune bought a total 68,030,000 shares at rm2.91 per share = Rm197,727,720.00 when the stock took the beating after the announcement of Malindo.

The big queston: why Tune is on the sideline when AA took the beating from Rm3 to Rm2.18?

Investors have short memories!! Hahahahahahahah!!

AA majority shareholders, EPF & Wellington are the keen seller toward the end of the 2013 while the owners are on the sideline.

Coming toward year 2014, Wellington is the only keen buyer while EPF & again the owners are still on the sideline.

All of this raises the question: What do the owners & EPF know that you don’t? Careful now, folks!! Heheheheheheh!!

New year low soon, folks? The wise things to do when investing is to use your head & not to follow your emotions! How? Heheheheheheheh!!

Folks, for the 1Q14 AA may have to contend with costlier jet fuel as the US dollar strengthens against the ringgit. More flight frequency meaning budget airline may have to pay more for fuel in ringgit terms.

A percent (%) appreciation of USD vis a vis ringgit will reduce AA earnings by approximately 8% to 13.7% for 1Q14. The impact of a weakening Australian dollar versus the ringgit is also a bad news to AA.

1Q passenger yields in ringgit terms will be affected if AUD continues to weaken going forward. This will adversely impact as the Australia market is one of the profitable segment for AA group.

New low soon? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....!! In the business world, the rearview mirror is always clearer than the windshield. Careful now, folks!

Hahahahahahahhahahahahah!!

AA going to test and make new low or high? Will the rally continue to bring AA above Rm3.00? Well folks, to stay above Rm2.50 is already a humongous hurdle!

Below 2.00 soon? Time will tell! Heheheheheh!!

Now the big question: will the rally continue? Careful now folks! Hahahahahahahahah!!

How will delays in opening of KLIA2 affect business?

AirAsia CEO Aireen Omar has been quoted in the press as saying that the delay in the completion of the new KLIA2 terminal will affect its Malaysian growth plans for the year.

Omar said the airline has already prepared for the worst-case scenario if the new air terminal is still not ready by May.

So folks, will weak Q4 results carry over into Q1FY14? Hmmmmmmmmmm..!!

Will AA pass on a rise in landing charges?

AA is facing heavy competition, and it might not be able to pass on to passengers the 9% rise in landing charges from January.

What’s more, there is an upcoming 9%-11% rise in airport passenger service charges in February and the 6% GST in Malaysia from April 2015.

Which charges is it thinking of passing on to its passengers? Or is it going to absorb all the charges?

Remember folks, risk comes from not knowing what you're doing! Take profit while you still can, folks! Hahahahahahhhahahah!!

Will AA weak Q4 results carry over into Q1FY14? Remember folks, if a business does well, the stock eventually follows.

How? Hahahahahahahhahaha!

Five years ago, the S&P 500 hit its nadir, closing at 676.53 after a 16-month selloff that sliced the index by more than half.

Since then, the index has rallied 177 percent, the best rolling five-year performance since the dot-com bubble.

Investors now ponder questions like 'Can profits measure up to share prices? So folk, will the bubble burst? Hahahahahahahah!!

The ringgit fell against the dollar, after the People's Bank of China fixed the Chinese yuan's mid-point versus the dollar at 6.1312, compared with Friday's fix at 6.1201.

The ringgit last stood at 3.2820 versus the dollar, pulling away from Friday's peak of 3.2480, which was the ringgit's strongest level in nearly three months.

Remember folks, weak ringgit is not good for aviation sector as their borrowings & fuel prices are in USD. How now?

Most Asian currencies fell on Monday as the dollar rose after US nonfarm payrolls increased more than expected, and as Chinese trade data added to worries of a slowdown in the world's second-largest economy.

Losses in Asian currencies were led by the Malaysian ringgit, which retreated after having rallied to a near three-month high on Friday.

Heheheheh!!

A number of warning signals are flashing in the stock market, and while not indicative of an imminent crash, they’re telling investors to exercise caution, say market strategists.

Will the rally continue? Hahahahahahahah!1

Those who have studied market history have seen this story before, and the ending is always the same. ]

No matter how many warnings you give, no many how you urge people to avoid buying the speculative Go-Go stocks and move to the sidelines, few listen until it is too late.

So the big question: Are you one of them folks? Hahahahahahahhaha!! Careful now!!

Sit & wait?

Of course, it’s not easy to sit on the sidelines when everyone else seems to be making money.

Although many investors are dreaming of another 30% return this year, the odds are good that it will be a difficult year.

Yes, during a mania stage anything is possible, but with each passing week, the clock is ticking.

A melting candle soon folks? Hmmmmmmmmm...!!

If we are in the mini-mania stage of the bull market, the market will continue to go higher based on rumors, hope, and greed.

Sitting on the sidelines and waiting for the bull market to top out takes tremendous discipline.

Trying to capture that final 5% can be costly if you get the timing wrong (and most people do). Be prepared for increased volatility as we get closer to the end. Careful now!

The market is wearing no clothes

Just like the emperor, the market is wearing no clothes. Right now, many people see only what they want to believe. It’s been a long time since investors felt full-throated fear, and many have forgotten what it feels like.

The panic to buy will be replaced by the urgency to get out at any price. No one can know what will cause perceptions to change, but they will.

At the moment, emerging markets are in deep trouble, and what is happening in Ukraine didn’t help. Nevertheless, the CEOs of several major brokerage firms have urged investors to “go long” emerging markets because they are so “cheap.”

Once again, these well-educated salesmen are wrong. Emerging markets will recover one day, but not soon. Urging investors to buy on the dip is disgraceful.
