apple daily news says. for previous Olympic hosting country. Most of their stocks tends to rise.

But  from a chart shown in the news paper, I note that for Greece, Sydney and Korea, their stock tend to reached the highest point about 400 days prior to the Olympic. Then stock start to fall to the lowest when the olympic actually started.

The future is not known, but looking back, I feel terrible to find that HK and China stock was highest in October, and it started to fall in November, 400 days prior to Bejing olympic

So I take it that from now on the olympic may only benefit those conceptual stocks but not the whole stock market at large.

may be or may be not

as there's are many other good factors

eg.: US election, Mainland Stock express, interest rate factor, ramanbi rising etc

but my worry is though there may be up and downs, at the last trading day of 2008, the index may not be higher than today

this comment is true at any time
brother Pen you seldom make this kind of neutral comments

Most people trade on a relatively short term basis, and the ups and downs , if in wide span, do good enough.

But for those long term holder they will be disappointed for this year's performance if the HSI stays as present, not mentioning a decline.

long term holding sure win is true. But more applicable to those with no time/no market knowledge/no investment EQ

with good market knowledge and dicipline
keep on buying/selling will surely earn more

most of all
it avoid stock disasters
