components, the number runs to more than 30 stocks. These are
prime candidates for bargain hunters.
Admittedly, the pervasiveness of the pessimism that has visited the market at the close of the preceding week renders confidence on a shaky
footing – at least over the near term. The long-term outlook remains rosy, however, with global economies showing marked and sustained
improvements in their economic numbers. The medium term may be challenged by an expected slower year-on-year growth in Q1, owing to
the strong performance last year. Much of the recent resurgence of risk was presented more by geo-political, rather than, economic
concerns. A quick resolution of the troubles in Egypt will restore normalcy in global financial markets.
Moving forward, we may see negative sentiments continuing to spill over to the trades, but we expect its influence to diminish, in the same
manner the Korean conflict impacted on markets late last year. Over the least three years, unanticipated developments such as that
currently rocking the middle east have presented a good opportunity for “crisis investing” and a contrarian policy. It may not be different
today.
Having said that, the drop to the 3,830 level brings to the surface the 3,790 support mark. It may be prudent for investors to observe if the
market will be able to hold support levels before going heavy on equities. Again, this is consistent with our 2011 outlook of guarded
optimism.
