Bloomberg: Singapore Joins China With Dangerous Debt Level
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-...china-with-dangerous-debt-level-gmt-says.html

“It’s a bit surprising that Singaporean companies seem to have leveraged up significantly over the past few years,” said Tulloch, 43, a former analyst at CLSA Asia-Pacific Markets. “There’s been a slight loss of discipline, or it could be that the growth has not come in as expected.”

Singapore’s companies suffered 37 cents of cash outflows for every $1 of net profit earned in 2013 as they spent 40 percent more in capital expenditure, according to the report. That compared with 12 cents of inflows the previous year.

SIBOR do raise above 3% every 7-12 years
Cheap SIBOR coincides with high property prices.

- take note of the property cycles before and after each SIBOR bottoms (eg. current)

Living dangerously is all I can say.

Ultra-low interest rates are like fishing nets. Fishes are harvested every 7-12 years when interest rates edge higher.

Satanists need us to get into more debts so that we can be enslaved. Please give 2 minutes for this short trailer called, "Master of the Universe":

Agreed , most of the major crashes in stocks and property were preceded by the availability of very easy money and widespread absolute greed, like now for instance.

Sir, don't catch a falling knife. Let SIBOR advise you on the best timing to buy sg properties. Singapore is a small place, if you are not sure of wat to invest, just keep $$$ and buy property during recession.

I didn't know u got Gold. RUN has some precious metals position, is it is a good time to average down or wait?

Gold and Silver are making a complicated base. Having had a fantastic 12-13 years of bull run, which is unprecedented, a major correction is way overdue. And by major, I suspect at least a 50% retracement is in order, which puts Gold at a base of USD900-1000.

And pigs get slaughtered left and right. If you don't understand why gold and not blue chip you are not suited to investing. And buy real gold. Not gold paper

real gold is not liquid in singapore.

- Gold middlemen are not keen to buy back gold from clients who didn't buy from them. It is like saying $500 from OCBC is not worth $500 in DBS when you try to bank in the money.

- 2 years ago, when Geneva gold collapsed, their clients with real PAMP gold were not even able to offload these gold at 10-15% discount from spot to UOB or any pawnshops.

Why bother with singapore then? Are horizons that narrow? It's contingency money anyway. You will never want to touch that unless you have to

Not sure if I get u correctly, non pigs knows that investing in gold beats blue chips. At the same time gold is contingency money that shouldn't be used unless necessary. So in your terms investing equates to locking up 'money' for long term?

According to W Buffet, gold is bad investment. Investing in good companies is better.

of course gold is a bad investment....this is the chart of gold prices over the last 100 years.....notice how it has the characteristics of a commodity that has no growth potential except for 2 major bubbles,one of which is now bursting?compare that to the chart of s&p and dow jones and berkshire harthaway which has a gradual slope upwards over the course of the century.
