Singapore index down Hutchison Port, CapitaLand fall: Reuters

Singapore shares dipped on Thursday, led by shipping port operator Hutchison Port Holdings Trust and Southeast Asia's biggest property developer CapitaLand Ltd.

The benchmark Straits Times Index eased 0.2 percent to 3,225.58 points, while the MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific...
shares outside Japan was 0.3 percent lower.

Hutchison was the worst performer on the index, with units falling as much as 2.7 percent to an almost eight-week low at $0.73. Some 23.8 million units were traded, more than 1.6 times
its average 30-day full-day volume.

The port operator reported last week an 8.4 percent drop in net profit for its quarter ended September.

CapitaLand shares fell as much as 2.2 percent to a three-week low at S$3.09 after posting an 8.7 percent fall in third-quarter net profit on Thursday due to lower portfolio gains.

The company earned S$135.5 million ($109.6 million) in the three months ended Sept. 30, down from S$148.5 million a year
ago.

Bull getting tired? Investors shrug off Fed

S& P 500 4:31pm

Click chart fore more markets data.
NEW YORK (CNNMoney)

Investors didn't seem to care that the Federal Reserve decided to continue its $85 billion a month bond buying program.



Stocks, which are hovering near all-time highs, fell after the Fed announced no major changes to its stimulus program, commonly known on Wall Street as quantitative easing or QE. Investors expect the program to last at least until the end of this year.

The Dow Jones industrial average, the S& P 500 and the Nasdaq closed with modest losses after starting the day with small gains.

Both the Dow and S& P 500 closed at record highs Tuesday, and both hit new intra-day highs on Wednesday.

The rally has been a global one. European markets climbed to their highest levels in five years Wednesday, and Asian markets ended with sizable gains.

Signs of a market that's too hot to handle? Investors have become increasingly concerned that the market might be overheated. CNNMoney's Fear & Greed Index, which measures market volatility and six other gauges of investor sentiment, has been in Greed territory for the past week.

There has been a remarkable shift in the market's mood this month. The index was showing signs of Extreme Fear earlier in October as investors worried about the government shutdown and a potential debt default by the United States.

PIMCO's Bill Gross. who runs the largest bond mutual fund, is one of a number of big fund managers who think that stocks have gotten ahead of themselves. Gross wrote on Twitter late Tuesday that " all risk asset prices artificially high."

Allianz Global Investor's U.S. investment strategist Kristina Hooper says that the market is once again focusing on when the Fed will pull back on its bond purchases.

" We're back to an environment where bad economic news is good," said Hooper. " Bad news suggests we will be on Fedicare for longer."

Weak hiring: Investors got another weak data point on Wednesday. Private sector employers added just 130,000 jobs in October -- their lowest level of job growth since April, according to a report by payroll processor ADP.

No Hardcore stuff here. Only Hancore stuff. But it is almost like hardcore with so much shortselling.

Ok, everyone.   SGX has already cleared the air regarding the 3 sister stocks.   Nothing serious has happened, and nothing will be happening, I guess.   So what are we waiting for?   Buy and buy NOW as the DOW is going to the 16,000 level very soon, probably within 3 to 4 weeks.  

Happy trading!!
