Investing is an art and highly emotional and subjective.

When buying stocks, if your buying decisions are based on"insiders' information or rumours" and not sound analysis, then you are gambling. Many investors enter the market when stocks prices are high (lacking of confidence to enter beforehand when prices were low). Once the stocks market crash, they tend to sell out their shares out of fear and pessimism, swearing to "chop off their fingers" and never enter the stocks market again. If such situation happens, all their previous gains may be wiped out and suffered a loss.

Investing is an art and highly emotional and subjective. Subjectivity is largely controlled by our emotions. There are times when we are optimistic or pessimistic. If we are unable to control our emotional weakness, we are unlikely to become successful investors.

To be successful, you must first understand yourself, in particular your emotions and the degree of pressure you can tolerate.

The investors should also analyse the country's economic prospects together with the earnings outlook of the major listed companies.

It is imperative that you like Mathematics as the sound mathematical knowledge plays a key role in investment.

王冠一:欧洲危机 影响深远

杜拜要求债权人冻结债务半年事件,据杜拜报章报道,渣打、汇控及RBS等债权银行已接受延期还债的建议。由於杜拜的经济规模不大,涉及债务重组部份更只有260亿美元,对环球金融体系料不会构成系统性风险,反而欧洲方面受到的掀连有多广,更加值得重视。

本周多家评级机构均有新动作。标準普尔周一把葡萄牙和希腊的信贷评级列入负面观察名单;周二则有惠誉把希腊的债务评级由A-降至BBB+,成為欧元区16国首个评级跌至B级的主权国家,另一评级机构穆迪亦提出警告,称英美两国若不制止财赤恶化,极可能在2013年失去其最高评级的三条A;周三则标準普尔再度出招,把西班牙的信贷评级列入负面观察名单之列,意味两年后极可能会将其评级调低。

早於金融海啸爆发之初,市场已极度不看好欧洲经济,不少投资机构更揪出一些负债相对GDP比率偏高的国家,押注於购买其信贷违约掉期(CDSs),期望这些国家一旦支持不住而出现违约时,便可从中牟取巨利。这些高危国家当中的葡萄牙、爱尔兰、希腊和西班牙,因国家首个英文字母而被标籤為「问题猪」(PIGS),其他於高危名单上的国家尚有意大利、匈牙利、波兰和波罗的海三国,而美国、英国和日本国力较强,财政相对稳健,但亦备受质疑。

事实上,危机随着评级机构的动作而已经曝光的希腊和西班牙,其预算赤字相对GDP的比重高达12.7%和11.2%,希腊已表示会大削开支四分一,但即使成功,预算赤字佔GDP逾9%,仍属偏高,亦是马城修约规定比率不多超过3%的3倍有多。

另一个危机不下於希腊和西班牙的国家是爱尔兰,其预算赤字亦高佔GDP的12.5%。為了避免蹈希腊和西班牙的覆辙,爱尔兰政府迅速提出一份削减40亿欧元开支的预算案,措施包括削减7.6亿福利开支、9.8亿日常开支、减省9.6亿的投资项目,以及削减公共服务机薪资合共10亿欧元。欧洲议会对此表示无任欢迎,但付出代价的却是公共机构的员工。為免招来肥上瘦下的指责,年薪28.5万欧元的爱尔兰总理Brian Bowen亦身先士卒,减薪两成。其他部长级高官早前已自愿减薪1成,现时则加码至15%。

百年一遇的金融风暴,令不少国家被迫推出振兴经济措施,加上税收因国民收入下降而大减,财政难免受到沉重打击,但各国仍须设法令财政回复至可持续的较健康水平。希腊的信贷评级被降至BBB-,其发行的债券可能不获欧洲央行纳為可接受的抵押品,日后要举债更加困难,令情况雪上加霜。

因此,杜拜只是小风波,危机会否蔓延至欧洲各国并大幅扩散,才是投资者务须密切事态发展的真正战场。
