This year will be a painful year for Crypto!

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/crypto-universe-may-round-pain-022846955.html

The most optimistic crypto proponent has thrown in the towel and given up on its unrealistic target for bitcoin.

Bitcoin prices won't recover to its glorious peak as more people get educated about crypto.  Please read our post below for more information.

https://sg-stock.blogspot.com/2018/11/a-financial-analysis-on-initial-coin.html

The crypto developers have been trying to rectify the security and structural flaws by switching from a POW (proof of work) to POS (proof of stake) system because POW consumes too much energy resulting in energy profligacy.  However, the developers are missing out the fundamental issues of money.

Money is a derivative of the economy and its supply cannot be limited or else it will be abandoned like the gold standard because of its finite supply.  Why is this so?

Money supply has to be able to shrink or expand to manage the economic growth because of inflation and deflation.  Under normal circumstances, there is an incremental natural rate of growth in the economy because of new services and products being created which will increase the economic size.  Consequently, the money supply has to be increased for the economy to function properly.  Likewise, the money supply has to be reduced when the economy is having a recession.

If a digital monetary structure has a limited supply, it won't be able to function like what the fiat money can do.  Therefore, the cryptocurrency will never become a legitimate and real currency.

Chinese vice premier, Liu He, performed very badly as a trade negotiator.

Liu He was just like a bad student sitting in a session with his school principal.  He was so meek in front of Trump and he didn't sound confident in his short speech.  Liu He didn't even dare to correct Trump when Trump heard the wrong order of 5m tonnes per day from his mouth.  It should be 5m tonnes today!

I prefer Wang Yi.  I believe Wang Yi will perform much better than Liu He as a trade negotiator.  No wonder China is losing the bargaining power in this trade talk.  President Xi should send Wang Yi and not Liu He as the latter did very badly.

EU has become a protectionist now!

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-apos-steel-tariffs-forced-114159985.html

To prevent trade diversion, the EU has imposed steel quotas to prevent goods dumping.  This is not unexpected because we expected it and posted our analysis in July 2018.  The EU chose to impose quotas instead of tariffs.  No matter what, this is a protectionist measure.

Economic recession is coming!

The baltic dry index chart is showing a significant downward trajectory from its recent high of about 1800 to 645 now.

http://sg-stock.blogspot.com/2019/02/baltic-dry-index-645.html

In a nutshell, the BDI is a shipping and trade index of raw materials using different types of vessels.  The BDI has a positive correlation to the world economic growth and reflects the economic conditions.  The BDI is currently having a downward trajectory which means the world trade is declining significantly recently.

Baltic dry index - 645

Today, Friday, February 01 2019, the Baltic Dry Index decreased by 23 points, reaching 645 points.
Baltic Dry Index is compiled by the London-based Baltic Exchange and covers prices for transported cargo such as coal, grain and iron ore. The index is based on a daily survey of agents all over the world. Baltic Dry hit a temporary peak on May 20, 2008, when the index hit 11,793. The lowest level ever reached was on Wednesday the 10th of February 2016, when the index dropped to 290 points.

First company to delist from SGX in 2019. More to come!

https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/companies-markets/cityneon-to-delist-on-feb-1-9am

Goodbye Cityneon!

There will be more to come!

This is because SGX is fast becoming a derivatives market instead of a securities market.  As the securities' liquidity dwindles, companies will become less interested to list on SGX as a low liquidity market always gives a low valuation for the IPOs and listed companies.

Indonesia has declared overtly that it wants to snag Singapore transshipment businesses.

https://sg.finance.yahoo.com/news/indonesia-eyes-60-billion-investment-singapore-backyard-025404112.html

Indonesia is investing 60B to boost its Batam's infrastructure and size to snag SG's transshipment businesses.

Sigh! We are really under-siege from Malaysia and Indonesia.

What can we do to protect ourselves? We need to develop a cozy relationship with China for our own economic benefits or else we'll run into economic repressions caused by our unfriendly neighbours.

US and China proclaim major progress in trade talk but nothing is revealed.

https://sg.news.yahoo.com/trump-says-us-china-trade-talks-going-well-150055209.html

Both countries (US & China) try to sugarcoat their trade talk communiques by stating major progress.  However, both countries have not released the progress details.  This makes me wonder whether there is real progress between the 2 countries or not.  Maybe this is a delaying tactic to appease the financial markets and to arrange for the 2 presidents to meet to renegotiate the deal.

The truth behind the ECRL cancellation.

https://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/asia/china-cccc-ecrl-malaysia-rail-project-negotiate-cost-20-billion-11189898

The china construction cost for the ECRL was already the lowest under the OBR initiative because of China's expertise and technology.  There is no way another country can build the ECRL at a much lower cost than China.  Therefore, the Malaysian government is disseminating fake news about China offering close to 50% discount for the ECRL construction.  If China really did offer close to 50% discount, there would be no reason for Malaysia not to accept it.

The real reason the Malaysian government cancelled the ECRL project was that China bypassed the Malaysia government and paid directly to its construction firms offshore.  The fund never reached the Malaysian shore because China knew that the fund would go missing and its construction firms would not be able to receive the full construction costs.

The Chinese know how corrupted the Malaysian government officials are and refuse to transfer the fund to Malaysia but choose to pay directly offshore.  This offshore payment arrangement annoys Mahathir because he and his lackeys cannot touch the fund at all.
