[Title] => Market sentiment seen to remain positive this week
[Summary] => Market sentiment remains positive this week given the new composition of the Philippine Composite Index and the continuing decline in world crude oil prices, which has led to the roll back of local gasoline prices.
The Philippine Stock Exchange changed the composition of the index to take out illiquid stocks in order to reflect the real movement of the market.

[Title] => Don’t fight the tape
[Summary] => Two weeks ago, we came out with an article "Philippine Peso … the strongest currency in Asia, (Oct. 24, 2005)" recommending investors to start investing in Philippine assets (the peso, ROPs, equities). Our reason: the Philippines has turned around and is already on the path towards a sustainable fiscal and economic recovery. For us and for investors looking to profit in the markets, what’s more important is the recognition of that turning point, the path towards recovery.

[Title] => Electronic display of stock mart info along EDSA eyed
[Summary] => The Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) is in talks with the city of Makati for the display of stock market information on the electronic board located along the Guadalupe bridge on EDSA.
PSE president Francis Lim said the move is in line with the exchange’s efforts to increase investor awareness on the equities market.
"This initiative forms part of our campaign to build awareness on the stock market to acclimatize and motivate existing and potential market participants through increased knowledge and understanding," Lim said.

[Title] => Why are we lagging behind?
[Summary] => After hitting record highs in September, emerging market equities around the world suffered huge losses as investors fear that they are becoming dangerously overpriced. Emerging market countries in Eastern Europe, Latin America and North Asia were among the worst hit. Russia, for example, declined 13.4 percent while Turkey is down 12.2 percent from their recent highs. The major reason is a global inflation scare which investors fear could prompt the US Fed to raise rates more aggressively.

[Title] => Volatility amid an overly dynamic political landscape
[Summary] => Market volatility on the rise. The domestic political situation has been very fluid over the past few weeks with new developments happening almost daily. The tug-of-war between improving macro fundamentals and an overly dynamic political landscape has caused a short-term spike in market volatility lately. This was compounded by the temporary restraining order (TRO) issued by the Supreme Court on the implementation of the Expanded Value Added Tax Act (E-VAT) causing alarm on most investors.

[Title] => Bargain hunting to boost mart this week — analysts
[Summary] => Investors may find themselves trooping back to the local equities market to scout for bargain stocks, although analysts point out that a sustainable rally remains a big question mark at this time given concerns on high fuel prices, inflation and interest rates.
"The market is going to rebound again this week. We are in the midst of a snap back rally after the market’s steep drop over the past five weeks," AB Capital Securities research head Jovis Vistan said.

[Title] => Analysts expect little action as investors await election results
[Summary] => Sideways trading is expected to persist in the market this week as the election counting remains an overhang and threats of protest keep investors at bay.
Even as the Supreme Court rejected an appeal to temporarily stop Congress from counting the votes for the presidential and vice-presidential candidates, investors remain wary of the slow pace of canvassing by Congress. As of last Friday, Congress has not finished opening all the ballot boxes.

[Title] => Market expected to sustain its gains on hopes of strong Q1 results
[Summary] => The market is expected to sustain its gains on expectations of strong first quarter results by a number of lead blue chip companies, analysts said.
Buoyed by the strong showing of US equity markets, the Phisix soared past the 1,500 resistance ceiling, and posted another record winning run for 2004 – six days of straight advances. The market last exhibited this feat in week four of October 2003, when it generated a 74-point rise.
Last week, the Philippine Composite Index closed at 1,516.81, up by another 26.76 points or 1.8 percent.

[Title] => Market seen slowing down this wk
[Summary] => Although the market made some headway last week, trading activity at the Philippine Stock Exchange is expected to slow down this week ahead of the Lenten break, analysts said.
In its weekly market report, BPI Securities said it expects investors to cash in on gains made last week to avoid any uncertainties ahead of the Lenten vacation.
"We expect some profit taking ahead of the long vacation. Investors are still likely to maintain their cautious stance given the security and political concerns," BPI Securities said.

[Summary] => The sideways movement of stocks is expected to continue this week as the market remains in consolidation while investors await and seek trading leads.
Analysts said President Arroyo’s announcement that she would run in the May 2004 presidential election, a reversal from an earlier decision, would unlikely affect shares as it had been widely assumed by the public.
