Got a call on whatsapp +6017-8638594
Malay speaking dude, asking for my OTP for some cashback for covid 19.

I wasted 10 minutes of his time
He did send me a transfer request under the name of Judith George P. Loling on my Bigpay app.
His whatsapp name is indahrehan15/12

Scammer?

UPDATE Bigpay say if they know your birthday, and you give them the OTP, they will have access to your Bigpay account, change your mobile number and use your money

Index Funds the next Big Bubble

woonsc — Tue, 17 Sep 2019 20:22:51 +0800

I have been watching and reading on the famous 2008 stock market crash predictor, Michael Burry.

In his interview recently with Bloomberg states that there's so much assets tied to index funds.

1. Fake liquidity
2. No price discovery

What are your thoughts?

Personally, I would be hedging using commodities and stash away % for this crisis.

Discrepancy btw diff Stock Charts

woonsc — Sat, 23 Mar 2019 12:23:15 +0800

Advance thanks to those who can point out what I missed.
there are discrepancies found from two chart sites.

From www.klsescreener.com
AirAsia price on the 11/12/2018

From klse.i3investor.com
AirAsia price on the 11/12/2018

At first I thought they rebalance the chart due to the distribution.
But a check on 8/3/2019 they are similar at both platforms.

I am quite a noobie here, and I really can't seam to find out why this happens.

Deflation in Malaysia (last time 2009)

woonsc — Fri, 22 Feb 2019 18:46:21 +0800

Malaysia deflation

QUOTE

Malaysia’s economy swung into deflation in January for the first time since the aftermath of the global financial crisis in 2009 as fuel prices dropped.

Consumer prices declined 0.7 percent from a year ago after hovering below 1 percent in the previous seven months, according to the statistics department. The median estimate in a Bloomberg survey of 21 economists was for a contraction of 0.4 percent.
Malaysia's price growth turns negative for first time since 2009
Key Insights

The government recently changed its fuel subsidy model by setting prices every week in order to reflect moves in global crude more quickly. This led to a 7.8 percent decline in transport costs in January from a year ago, the biggest drop of all the categories
While price pressures have eased, the government is still concerned that ordinary Malaysians haven’t felt it in their wallets. Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng is looking for ways to see how deflation can drag down living costs
The central bank has kept interest rates unchanged at 3.25 percent since raising it in January 2018. Policy makers expect average inflation to trend higher this year
The last time Malaysia hit deflation was in June to November 2009. The economy contracted 1.5 percent that year

Get More

The cost of food and non-alcoholic drinks rose 1 percent in January from last year, driven by an 8.4 percent surge in the price of eggs and a 5.3 percent jump in chicken. Malaysia started an investigation in December into potential cartel activities in the industry
The capital Kuala Lumpur is the only state or federal territory that saw a CPI increase in January, with inflation at 0.2 percent
