In this kind of market today, there is no FA or TA. Behavioural Analysis rules. Also the STI is a leading indicator over the real economy by 4 to 6 months and hence it is unlikely for the market to trend higher. This put tremendous pressure on component stock.
With cosco anything is possible. Did you ever though it shot above $7? do you ever thought it shot down to 60+ cents with no resistance?

If dun talk abt FA, currently its trading range will be from 0.9-1.2. Even if they are able to break 0.9, 0.7 is quite difficult to rch.U can count yourself lucky if it really hit 0.7 again.

I base on the following news feed:
1. Cosco parent is expected to cancel some orders due to excessive capacity
2. Chinese economy will slow significantly in 2009.
3. No order being announce so far
4. Past earning could not be sustained and this creates big earning disappointment from Jan 09 reporting. |

| I think the problem happens with the network connectivity problem encountered yesterday between broker and SGX. Nevertheless I am of the opinion for Cosco to go down to 70c level. |

Happens to see it from poems. It does not affect the transaction volume as it seems. Large orders being chunk out and trade summary does not reflect that as well. It has since stopped. I was a bit puzzled too..
Any idea how does this transaction takes place in the back ground without going thru the usually buy/sell queue?

Look at the trade history after 15:00. So many of large chunk of 1000+ lots changed hands on the background..... that pushes it down to 98c. Is this going to be more sell down soon as it happens before |

The bad news from this counter has started to flow with cancellations from shipbuilding and derivatives losses. Not sure how much more bad news to come but will stay alert and nimble if vested.
I thought so too, but not so sure what price to buy in for now.
Dis is really favourite for me. Buy sell buy sell always made money for me. Thks for those who recommended dis to trade.
They are able to hold maybe bec of possible good news fr fed. If fed disappoint the mkt, then the effect of selling will come.

Cosco shares fall after $577 million derivative loss
Chinese shipper says losses related to 'dramatic' decline in Baltic Dry Index
By Chris Oliver, MarketWatch Last update: 12:17 a.m. EST Dec. 16, 2008
HONG KONG (MarketWatch) -- China Cosco Holdings Co., one of the mainland's largest shipping and cargo operators, said Tuesday it has incurred losses of 3.95 billion yuan ($577 million) from misplaced bets on the direction of bulk-shipping rates.
Cosco's shares traded lower on the news, with those in Hong Kong ( HK:1919: news, chart, profile) falling 2.8%, while those in Shanghai fell 7.2%. The Beijing-headquartered and state-owned shipping line said its dry-bulk unit purchased freight forward agreements linked to the Baltic Dry Index to lock in the cost of chartered-in vessels. These contracts, purchased when the index averaged 7,123 points, racked up huge losses as freight rates plunged, hitting 764 on Dec. 12. The freight rate has averaged 1,224 since Oct. 1.
"The global economic crisis further deteriorated since the fourth quarter, which has greatly affected the global shipping market," China Cosco said in a statement filed with the Hong Kong Exchanges & Clearing Tuesday. "The basic freight level of major shipping routes has declined dramatically."
Shippers and ship owners use freight-forward agreements, a type of option traded on the Baltic exchange, to hedge against price changes in the ocean freight market. The options are priced on the basis of the Baltic Dry Index, which reflects the spot rates of the global bulk shipping market.
The index ended at 803 Monday, compared to a record close of 11,793 on May 20.
China Cosco said it had a fair-value loss of 5.38 billion yuan on the freight forward agreements, but it was partly offset by a 1.43 billion yuan gain related to contracts that have been completed.
The shipping line said its business has also been hurt by falling demand and softer rates in its container-shipping business.
China Cosco, founded in 1961, operates a fleet of container cargo and dry-bulk ships. The company also provides port handling and logistics services.

I am not sure if this could translate more order cancellation or postponement as Cosco's parent is also her customer.
