Have forummer noticed that food portions are smaller while prices are higher. What used to be at S$3.00 is now at S$3.50. Those at S$2.50 is now at S$3.00. If inflation is at 5%, money sitting in the bank is losing value, with today interest at 0.5%.

With ZIRP policy in the foreseeable future. In the Singapore context, perhaps property is still a good bet, as reported that sales of private property is still high inspite of the cooling measures.

What about stocks and precious metals, such as gold or silver?
 
Chicken price also increase from $40 to $50. Used to be 25 minutes. Now the OKT press buzzer after 15 minutes :mad:
 
Thats what you get when we restrict foreign imports la

No, there is an influx of foreign chickens(legal and non legal) but the price still goes up. My Econs tutor told me, supply increase, price will decrease....
 
sinkapore is a bubble. PAP government is propping up the property market, that's why more aliens have to be allowed in. All bubbles will burst and when the sinkapore bubble burst, end of PAP.

Once, I overheard my chicken telling her friend, "You ask him to buy you the ipad, then re-sell to me cheaper" :eek:

But its true chicken price also increases what....You want to see how well a country is doing, just check out the chicken price. In Aus, it costs AUD$150 at least to screw a chicken :o
