Daily Market Notes March 1 2013
PSEi 6,642.27 -79.18 (-1.18%) TURNOVER 10B Leading the day's noteworthies was EDC's commendable early disclosure that its Bacman 2 rotor blade is malfunctioning and has been shut down. Bacman 1 will be shut down as well for inspection. Shutdown yet again, the last time, the motors had to be sent to Europe to be rewound/repaired. As with its current uncertain status on when the power … [Read More...]

PSEi 6,721.45 +105.18 (1.59%) TURNOVER 14.78B DISNEY ON PSEICE No need to wait for December to watch Disney on Ice, we got it here on the PSE! Hot on the tracks of a mere Bernanke speech affirming they will continue with their inflationary bond buying, Wall Street and Europe surge further. This set the tone for our Pinoy run up about 50 points. This time however, we stabilized … [Read More...]
LN’s UCC’s Feb 28

PSEi 6,616.27 -14.40 (-0.22%) TURNOVER 10 B MAGIC IS A STATE OF MIND Fed chair Bernanke comes out in the open and declares that maybe they're just not yet through with their bond buying program, and thus proclaimed a continuity of the easing of the monetary policy they implemented since the subprime crisis began. Wall Street recovered 1%, and this new affirmation of further inflation … [Read More...]

PSEi 6,630.67 -90.66 (-1.35%) TURNOVER 8.32B NO MAGIC HERE High markets are susceptible to selling. Any form of reason might be cause to sell. This time, the Dow and Europe tumble over 1% on uncertainty over the elections in Italy. Remember last year's Eurozone fears? All solution points toward austerity and cost cutting, and this year's Italian elections are all about the winners … [Read More...]
LN’s UCC’s Feb 26
( * * * * NO MAGIC TODAY * * * * * ) As the DOW dropped like a rock overnight to a tune of a 200 pt slide, many were left asking to themselves whether the PSE will recover from an intraday drop, much like what it did last Thursday when it dropped 102 but recovered to close just down 2pts... Well, there were no magical forces to rescue the PSE from the impending correction today, however … [Read More...]

How much is the Vatican worth?
Now that Pope Benedict XVI is resigning his post soon due to age, a lot of attention is now focused on the vatican once again. Aside from his health, could there be any other reasons plaguing the vatican? Money problems the vatican butler threatens to reveal? In my scouring the net, I am not one inch closer to any figure, as there are as much conspiracy theorists supposing that the Vatican … [Read More...]

How much is Lance Armstrong worth before and after confessing on doping?
Lance Armstrong was worth a lot before confessing on doping. $125 Million dollars earned from various sponsorships from his 7 championships. He was still worth his value in news as the Armstrong broadcast on Oprah itself could well exceed the 3.5 million viewers for that show. He will still have a lot left over after some of his bounty is returned. At the peak of his career, Lance was one … [Read More...]

Now that the evasi0n jailbreak is days away, iOS 6 users of Iphone 5, ipad mini, ipad 4 and 5 and the like are wondering what to replace the recently shutdown Installous with?
