PH Stock Index All Time High at 7,313.46 breaches 7,300 for first time in history

Once again PSEi set a record of an all-time high at 7,313.460 a day after the election. It only means that investors have trust on the recently concluded election. In addition a new intra-day high was likewise hit at 7,349.95. It is 30th record breakout for the year and the 91st under the Aquino administration.

This sign is really good for investors because they could see gains from their investment. People who are not yet investing will not really feel the effect of the economy.

I believe that it’s high time for people to go to Investment. If you don’t know how to read graphs, and if you do not understand how the stock market works, I believe that is now high time to learn about this things. If you want to start you can go to banks or Mutual Fund Company and ask about equity funds.

Equity funds performance depends on the stock market movement. Just make sure that you know the risk that you will face in going to stock market.

Investing in stock market could give you a really high profit but likewise it could also give you a very high lost. The higher the Risk the Higher the possible gain and the lower the Risk the lower possible gains.

Your investing appetite will determine the type of investment that you will push through.

If you invest in equity funds, you will not bother about fundamental analysis and technical analysis of a certain stocks. But likewise you will not also have any part in decision making about which stocks to pick or to sell.

The beauty in stock market is that you control your investment but if you do not know this things better go to equity funds then learn about stock market.

Happy investing and I hope that many OFW will start investing and not just waster their money in gadgets and useless wants.

Red Market Last Week, Is Your Investment Affected?

PSEI

It’s Sunday, and no trading day, a day that was agreed by many in the Philippines as the day of worship and is the time to contemplate with our Lord. Remember that we are just a steward of his blessing and whatever the Philippines is experiencing about its great economy is God’s plan for Filipinos.

Last week Philippine stock market have experienced a “Red” mark. (Just for information “Green” means gain and “Red” means lost). According to the news , it was due to the weak banking sector that makes the market “Red” last week. Many have taken their profit due to non-availability of good news as cited in the news. Remember that I have told you that news could affect the price of the stock. So what was your strategy last week?

Many might ask, is this the start of the so called “bear market“? Do I have to sell my MBT? BDO? or other stocks? As always it is still the decision of the stocks holders. Nobody is responsible for your stock but the owner.  Let me also remind all of our readers that stock market is the riskiest investment in the market but also an investment instrument that could give the highest gain. More risk means more possibility of gain. Below is my take in those question.

50% of my portfolio is in banking sector so, my portfolio was affected. But did I sell last week? My answer is “NO”. I believe it is just a correction in the market. But this also reminds me of “diversification”. My portfolio should be diversified so that when 1 sector like banking is affected, my whole portfolio will not be affected.

I also believe in Long Term Investment that is why I am not affected with the ups and down of the market. It’s all about mind setting.

If I had more funds, I would be buying more since I believe that the majority of the blue chips stocks are now on sale. This is a very good opportunity to buy since an investor could buy more stocks with the same amount that he could be spending about 2 weeks ago.

We will see if the market will still have its correction tomorrow.

To those OFW who have not yet started investing, you need to think again and always remember that we need to be prepared for our family future. But first of all you need to have Emergency Fund before investing and control your expenditures buy knowing about Good Debt and Bad Debt. Increase your financial literacy.

God provides, and this is 100% true and God will give His provision to those who have vision.

Proverbs 22:3

The prudent see danger and take refuge, but the simple keep going and pay the penalty.

To those who have just visited this site, I would recommend you watching the full session of the Pesos and Sense and know how to start investing in the stock market
