What's Happening to Today's World???

Everyday SEEMS bleaker than the one before…

Doesn’t it seem that way?  Every morning when I flip over to the headlines of the The Straits Times, Singapore’s english daily papers, seemingly bad news get published - stock markets plunge, people losing their life savings from fixed deposits in foreign currency accounts, tycoons tightening up their expenses after losing billions - yes, paper billions after the value of their stocks in businesses take free-fall dive by investors who get cold-feet…

Perhaps its better not to read the daily papers???

Then again, there are those who have bewhoen just waiting by the sidelines for opportunities like these, where stock investors are just getting rid of their stocks at any price.  These value hunters seek those companies with great fundamentals that are closing at ridiculous never-before reached prices, and start accummulating at great bargains, and then hold and wait till the economy recovers.

Of course the recent example of a philantrophic Mr Oei who bought AIG shares and donated to a good cause, and saw the investment make huge gains within just a few days - he is just one example of a wise someone who knows when to go in to the market to pick up a great value.

Amidst all these market and economic turmoil, all of us must remain calm, and maintain our composure. All of us know that in any fall, there is always the pickup thereafter, we must continue to keep our eyes up… but how to do so???

One way is to search out articles that are about motivation, such as those available from Success University; another is to go to the beach and talk a way, enjoy the sounds of the sea lapping on the shore enjoy the breeze and take in the sights.

I guess all these turmoil and bad times will soon go away, we just gotta be patient…
