AK71 is a 38 years old business manager by profession. He started out using FA 100% in his approach to investments but it’s only after learning TA that he realized his approach was incomplete. So, it’s FA + TA now. He would like to retire in another few years from now. So, it would be nice to grow his wealth but, ultimately, creating a reliable stream of passive income takes precedence.

I’m a 52 year old part time trader who trade only in Singapore SGX exchange listed stocks. I am working towards the target to an early retirement or at least out of rat race when I receive my CPF saving on Sep 2011, and top up with the accumulated nett profits from stocks trading.
I have two sons and one daughter. The elder one, 20, is now serving national service in the Navy; and the other son, 13, is in Secondary One, and daughter, 18, is in second year Junior College. Wife is a homemaker without any income and the whole family depends on me for financial support, so I have to do well in this journey of trading.
Cheers!

Mandy Ong started out as Futures Broker with a SGX clearing member firm in year 2000, handling institutional and retail clients. In year 2003, she became a commission-based Broker, servicing her own clients. During this time, Mandy found that many retail investors are not familiar with trading futures due to the lack of education and proper information, and the futures trading courses that are available are very over-priced and over-sold.

Therefore, she quit broking in Sept 2008 to devote more time to educating the public on Futures Trading.
The main objective of The MidnightStar is to introduce investors to Futures Trading and help you understand what trading is all about before plunging into the markets. The website will give you market updates, information and news to help you in your trading.

Newbie here to value investing.
May I enquire where can I get a stock screener for Singapore stocks to filter datas like P/E, P/Book. ROE, ROE, Current ratio, D/E ratio etc
SGX website does not seem to provide it. Neither does MSN.central. Although finance.yahoo seem to provide a screener for the basic ratios only.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Hi phinix,
I know that some brokerage firms like Phillips have something similar that you require. You might want to check with your broker.
You can also refer to this site – http://investing.businessweek.com/research/company/overview/overview.asp . However some of the information may not be complete.
For me, I usually refer to their AR or financial statements and do my own calculation. Sort of a learning process for me.
Cheers!
