Eyeballing the numbers, the GDP growth rates here seem to be based on the real GDP growth. Often it is never stated and I think since GDP growth figures are released long before inflation numbers are known, that GDP growth is often based on nominal growth. \Do you know if this list true? You can see the impact of war (WW2) on the the GDP growth...staggering. Maybe that's also the reason for US's current favourable (vs other G7 countries) GDP growth.

paddypower Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Yes, silly me, indeed. my investment strategy is to invest Thai 100%; no capital gains tax here. Excluding investment property, my Portfolio is approx 90% for dividend income and 10% for small cap equities. I have a good track record, cashing in dividend earning stocks for short term investment in IPO's The comment I made was in reference to one '550k hit' that I took,. In that incident, my broker (& others) did not disclose the lack of transparency in their research notes. The IPO was BTG, at 40 baht.. Research notes given to me privately by my broker's research department valued it at ranges between 50-64 baht. so i plowed 3 mill in to the IPO. Unfortunately, I did not keep that email attachment. Later, after the IPO flopped, the research notes changed, with an addendum, disclaiming responsibility and disclosing that the research/valuation was prepared by the company and not by the researcher dept. Yep, I i thought about suing. Then, this being Thailand, I dropped the idea, trashed my records. A lesson learned - the only time I did not do my own DD,, instead getting lazy and relying on what I thought was an independent source. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still intending to work ten more years with WP, so how to invest my cash best using Bangkok Bank I venture to guess, that you are an inexperianced investor. You need to do some homework before entrusting your money to someone. You must not only do your investment dealings by way of "Bangkok Bank". Bankok Bank is strong concerning Thailand, but has "weak connections" when it comes to "international investing". For every financial transaction, they charge a relatively high commission. - I have 2 stepdaughters, working for "Bangkok Bank". They assure me, that they will recommend investments that give them the highest personal "commission". Under these circumstances, their "advice" is questionable. Better to establish an investment-account with a international broker (Charles Schwab, for example). Low cost and good advice. Above all: As an inexperianced investor, shy away from people that approach you with promesses of 10 to 20% "guaranteed" annual returns. Those are scams, without exeption. Those sceamsters will realise within 5 minutes, that you are an inexperianced investor, having found another "prey". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Lister Posted March 17 Author Share Posted March 17 The JPM quarterly asset allocation report was spot on this quarter so I did well, slightly overweight Japan and equities, underweight Europe and EM. Going into the next quarter: I'm likely to slightly increase equities across the board, especially Japan, and balance that out with the M&G Short Term Corporate Bond Index. I'm still holding a lot in Money Markets but that's ok. This week the Fed speaks, markets now look for rate reductions later rather than sooner, mid year seems right to begin that. https://www.morningstar.com/markets/when-will-fed-start-cutting-interest-rates https://am.jpmorgan.com/us/en/asset-management/adv/insights/portfolio-insights/asset-class-views/asset-allocation/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Lister Posted March 19 Author Share Posted March 19 Here's one for the collective minds to try and solve: Japanese investment in Thailand is massive. One problem however is that the car companies especially, do not repatriate their earnings and instead leave the money inside Thailand. Now, with BOJ starting to tweak fiscal policy and play around with yield curves, it looks like the YEN will strengthen and that in country opportunities may see those earnings repatriated. That means selling THB for YEN or perhaps even USD, along with the associated impact. If anyone has any data or views on this, I for one will be interested to see and hear it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where does the future money come from to support economic growth when the middle class has no more the money to support "economic growth"? Disposonable income for the Middle-Class constantly declining in the "western world". - The US, still the economic powerhouse it seems. It may be subject to re-evaluation, once the world realises that the second largest annual budget outlay is the servicing of the national dept. (servicing dept means only paying for interest). - A bit worriesome that a single company can guide the world into a AI new age, just because their "chips" can do what all other Chip-Manufacurers appearantly can not do. Never mind all this. As long as everybody (including his uncle) is convinced that the sky is the limit, might as well enjoy the ride.

swissie Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Hi Mike Lister! A while ago, I suggested to add a sub forum "investements" in ASEAN NOW. You volunteered to moderate. Thanks. But is has become appearant that a seperate "investement-forum" is not justified. I conclude that well funded Farangs have their sources of "investement-interactions/advice" already established somewhere else. In this forum here, the main concern of contributors seem to be "how to import/export money from Thailand at the lowest cost". Perfectly OK.

Problem is, if somebody cries "fire", the fire-exits will be clogged in no time at all. I myself stay close to the fire exit. Goldmans previously increased their estimate for the S&P, up to 5,200 but have now said that 6,000 is possible on the back of mega caps growth. I find this troubling for several reasons, especially in an already froth filled market, some of the increases graphs are almost vertical and simply not sustainable. "Be fearful when others are greedy", is what he said, hmmm! One of my bellwethers is the amount of uninvested cash that is held by trusted fund managers, my favorite at JPM is down from 24% to 18% which is still remarkably high for an investment fund. Yet, as you say, the VIX is sat around its 30 year low, between 12 and 13. The rule of 20 says that the sum of the P/E ratio, plus inflation, should be equal to or less than 20, in order to represent fair value or better, anything more than 20 means it's over valued. The average P/E of my holdings is 14, let's hope inflation stays down! Lastly, if middle class spending power is in decline now, things are going to get a lot worse as soon as some brave politician raises taxes to pay deficits, borrowings and provide funding for future social security schemes......ouch!

Mike Lister Posted March 25 Author Share Posted March 25 US Money Supply Growth went negative five times since the 1800's. On the first four occasions, 1870's, 1893, 1921, 1929, markets crashed and took years to recover, the losses were massive. The fifth occasion is right now.

Mike Lister Posted March 31 Author Share Posted March 31 I've just been reading the year end estimates by the global banks for the S&P and it makes for dismal reading.

Too much depends on whats happening in China. Worldwide Copper stocks fluctuate wildly on a monthly basis. = roller coaster. The narrative of the "electrification of the world" is still intact, but this is a long term process, not helping Copper much in the short to mid term. If Cocoa should become a new economic indicator, I will stop investing altogether and I will store my assets under the matress. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All very well supported by increasing profits and increasing dividends is the consensus. Fine! About half of investement decisions are made by "gut feelings" (psychologie). What if investors "feel" that after such a good bull-run, some profits should be realised? Our Mike Lister is not the only one thinking along those lines. Most bull markets stall out before the fundamentals would justify increased selling. (Psychology: Enough is enough, I want to see some tangible cash and can always re-enter the markets after "a little correction"). Bull Markets can only continue if investors refuse to sell AND new money enters the markets. Those 2 factors must not necessarily reflect the state of the Economy, short term. But lo and behold, seldom have "fundamentals" supported a bull-market like we experience it currently (inflation down, interest rates on the way down, profits rising). Investors paradise! When it comes to "paradise", I advice caution. After all, God closed the Jerusalem Stock Exchange for Adam and Eve for 2000 years, just when they thought that the party would never end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll stay the course at least until October. It looks like that's the thing to do, Capital Economics makes a very sound case that the S&P might reach 6,200. The latest jobs report was a whopping 50% over estimates! That pushed expectations for a rate cut back substantially. But the case is now being made for higher asset prices, regardless of interest cuts and bond yields seem to support that since yields have now increased. Rates remaining higher for longer seems to be the theme and oil has joined that party, it's now over $86. Things that concern me are: - the difference in values between the US markets and overseas is getting even wider - higher oil prices don't impact the US but they cause great damage in other economies which combined with a stronger USD, puts EM at risk. - the above will hurt the Thai economy, equally as badly. Expect higher fuel costs to impact long haul tourist numbers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not, but what is "...the excellent L&G fund that..." you wanted to buy? 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The duration is around 3.5 years but the average credit quality level is lower and averages BBB/BB. Still, it's not into junk territory so I'm happy with the bet. https://markets.ft.com/data/funds/tearsheet/ratings?s=GB00B1TWMY10:GBP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
