4.5bn is quite a bit for sorting out T+5 situations. The rest of the money will have to come organically. The purpose of credit should be to create more market activity which in turn attract more capital.

tubal wrote:You have been shafted and you deserve it. Today's FT reveals that the combined net capital of all broker firms is 4.5 billion (ref: http://www.ft.lk/2011/08/25/brokers-scramble-for-new-capital/) so brokers can lend upto 4.5 billion to their clients, and many already have.

4.5 Billion is slightly less than the amount of money that was taken out of the system with the COMB rights issue.
That's about 1/3rd of the amount that HNB tried to raise via a rights issue (and failed).
4.5 Billion is about 2 Days worth of turnover.
It's less than half the amount that has been taken out of the market by foreign funds.
That's less than 0.02% of total market capitalization.

There were many, many people here saying that credit is not the issue. All those people were shouted down by
1) brokers masquerading as retail investors.
2) retail investors whose first post in the forums usually went like 'What is PE?', 'What is a rights issue?' but appear to have become CFA level 3 charter holders with in 6 months.
3) manipulators.

you see many such posts even today. In fact you wouldn't find any other post today.

Thanks for sharing ur words, Ur active participation would be very much appreciated

Thanks everyone for your good wishes. Really appreciate it. This forum used to be fun sometime back. Now it's dominated by people who can't tell the difference between 2.5 trillion and 4billion, well it looks like the 4 billion has been used up by today.

It's also interesting that two new forums have sprung up with in the course of this month

Tubal, good that you are back in action. It is always better to have different ideas in this forum and better to look at things in different angles. But we should not forget that we are dealing with high risk high return situation where we should be able to take a risk. But it should be a calculated risk that is agreed.
But I’m curious about your investment style because you always see the negative side and never came up with any positive comment even in a bullish market. Even I have made few warnings through my posts and same time I was flexible to ask from forum members things that I don’t know. And also I have made favourable comments for some fundamentally strong shares too. But in your case you never made any favourable comment for any share. Are you not at all investing in shares or you are scared to share your favourable comments with us thinking that if it is went wrong, that will not good for your status? Tubal, no offence intended, please share your thoughts.
Don’t forget we all dealing with high risk high return investments where there is always risk of losing our money.

I see following two possible scenarios

  1. Once excess fund supply (2 billion) is exhausted, market may stagnate. However, note that not all brokers have excess funds. So some brokers have to force sell their client's PF. Thus market may go down slowly

  2. Brokers may give credit exceeding legitimate limit in the mid-month and force sell at the end of the month (of course after earning an interest) to show SEC they are under the limit. If this happens we can see month end downs and green at the beginning of the month.

P.S. I do not see a big difference between last days of in******w.lk and this forum now.

There is no rule that says everyone has to ask question so I chose not to.

I chose not to promote my shares that's why I almost never recommend buying anything. But I have made one or two exceptions.

A calculated risk is to buy a solid share and planning to hold it through the bear market or sell if the price drops 5%. To buy BLUE hoping it will go up is a gamble. To buy hoping credit clearence will not bring the market down is a gamble. In fact HOPE should not even be in the vocabulary.

High risk does not always give high returns. They more often than not give high loses.

The retail participation seems to have increased over the past few months. That means we are hell of a long way from the bottom.

So both you and tubal are under the assumption that the new funds will not come into the market. Ok then, let's see how this goes.

Investing is not merely taking risks. It is the act of studying hard, being vigilant of macro and micro factors, reading the situations correctly and most importantly taking the right decision at the right time. It is minimizing the possible risk of losing money and improving the probability of earning the expected return of the investment. The credit thing is only a single factor, and the market have already reacted with some green days and now we need to study what are the factors those will decide the future direction of the market. To list a few,
1. Company earnings - Even though many companies have shown positive growth is it enough to justify the investor expectations bid in late 2010 and early 2011.
2. Fear of another recession - Need to evaluate the probability and level of impact to CSE
3. Future potential of the country - Need to think in line with the already appreciated amount for this and possible future appreciation
4. Foreign investors and investment funds behavior

The next thing is to identify shares with positive impacts from these factors and evaluate in isolation. This will help identify out performers and at least to be safe even in a down trend.
Just following the crowd or being driven by the rumors or the general perception will not do any good and it will be clearly a huge risk with high probability to lose even the invested capital.

That's unfair bro. Most of the people not promoting shares these days. Most of the investors tend to do trades rather investing. I saw most of the people use the terms like
This share is over valued . but .... , I haven't done any fundamental analysis . but ...

Most of the users are active on the stock market talks section(not fundamental side). Please reveal your shares. We don't take them as promotions.
it is not fair you blame traders while you do trades in CSE. Anyway we don't have options other than gambling money on CSE. Lol

No point of discussing friend as very few of so called CFA qualified people lack common sense and they have been shafted with their own ideas.
