The "After Effect" of US 2012 Economy Election !

Wall Street sinks after election as "fiscal cliff" eyed ...

NEW YORK (Reuters) - The Dow industrials lost more than 300 points in a sell-off on Wednesday that drove all major stock indexes down over 2 percent in the wake of the presidential election as investors' focus shifted to the looming "fiscal cliff" debate and Europe's economic troubles.
The Standard & Poor's 500 Index posted its biggest daily percentage drop since June, with all 10 S&P sectors solidly lower and about 80 percent of stocks on both the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq ending in negative territory. Both the Dow and the S&P 500 closed at their lowest levels since early August.
Financial stocks and energy shares, two sectors that could face increased regulation after President Barack Obama's re-election, were the weakest on the day. The S&P financial index (.GSPF) lost 3.5 percent, while the S&P energy index (REU:^GSPEI) fell 3.1 percent. An S&P index of technology shares (.GSPT) slid 2.8 percent as the stock of Apple Inc (AAPL) entered bear market territory.
Obama's victory had been anticipated, though many polls indicated a close race between the president and Mitt Romney, his Republican challenger, going into election day.
The election was considered a major source of uncertainty for the market, but now the focus turns to the fiscal cliff, with investors worrying that if no deal is reached over some $600 billion in spending cuts and tax increases due to kick in early next year, it could derail the economic recovery.

Genting was the first casino to open its doors in Singapore on 14 Feb 2010. Discussions on whether to develop casinos started in 2005 and it sparked a nation-wide debate, given the negative social impact of gambling. However, the entertainment and tourism value to casinos led the government to push ahead with plans.
+121.7% since opening but….
While it is unclear whether there are more benefits associated with the opening, it has definitely benefited the company’s share price. As at 9 Nov 2010, Genting’s shares had more than doubled from opening, increasing 121.7% in less than seven months (as of 12 Feb 2010 close).
However, after hitting its high of $2.35, Genting has been on a down trend. As of yesterday’s close, the counter slipped 40.4% from its high, while the local bourse only slipped 7.6% over the same period.
Reversal or pullback?
More recently, Genting reached a low of $1.22 on 26 July 2012 and has since added 14.8%, outperforming the local index which gained only 1.9%. MER had previously released a research report on 15 August 2012 upgrading Genting Singapore to ‘Outperform’, raising the 12 month target price to $1.70.
Stock price falls on divestment of Echo
Yesterday, Genting announced that it was going to sell its entire 4.8% stake in Australian casino, Echo Entertainment. Previously, the company paid A$144.2mil for its stake and will now sell at a loss for A$131.7mil. This clearly did not go down well with investors who sold Genting down by 0.7% as compared to Wednesday.
Genting S’pore poised for F1
In other news, the annual Formula 1 SingTel Singapore Grand Pix will be held this weekend and historically the event has attracted many tourists to Singapore, benefiting many tourist related industries, such as Genting Singapore.
Singapore Market Wrap
Red, everywhere
Most Asian indices ended in negative territory yesterday. The STI fell 0.4% day-on-day (dod) to 3,062.61. The HSI fell 1.2% to 20,590.92
Sentiments were dampened by a HSBC report which showed that the Chinese manufacturing activity contracted for the 11th consecutive month in September. The PMI reading was at 47.8 compared to 47.6 in August. A figure below 50 implies a contraction.

Property developers gave away QE3 gains
Both property developers Capitaland (-1.9% dod, $3.13) and Yanlord (-2.0% dod, $1.21) have given up their gains since the announcement of QE3 last Thursday. Some Asians are worried that the US QE3 could flood the property markets with easy cash. Last week, the Hong Kong government stepped up effort in controlling the runaway property prices by limiting the maximum mortgage term to 30 years and rising the minimum down payments.

SGX - still years away from high frequency trading
Bloomberg reported that SGX CEO, Mr. Magnus Bocker, said that the Singapore exchange is still 12-24 months away from introducing high frequency trading in the equities market. The bourse will need more time in setting up rules to regulate the business. In its AGM, Mr. Bocker commented that SGX non-stock market revenues rose $37mn, largely driven by a 16% increase in derivatives volumes.

Overnight Market Wrap
Is QE3 enough?

The S&P retreated as investors were worried over the global slowdown. It fell less than 0.1%, closing at 1460.26.

In Europe, manufacturing output fell in September while in the US, jobless claims increased this week.

PMI manufacturing in the Eurozone remained below 50, coming in at 46 and the US jobless claims increased by 1.9% compared to last week.

While investors are skeptical as to whether the Fed's plans are enough to help avert a recession, many are still hopeful since the latest QE shows the determination of the committee.
