Merlaco stays in the happy hands of the Lopez Family

While I missed the details, I'm happy to hear that Meralco is staying in the happy hands of the Lopezes.

MER's closing share price today was Php60.00. Good bargain I think...

resistance shmesistance

Every analyst seems to have his own "resistance" and "support" levels. I don't bother making my own. After all, this is just my hobby and I like to position long. What I do is I just ride off of other people's analysis. There are many people out there who love crunching the numbers and don't mind publishing their thoughts. My favorite is still tsupitero.com.

The market closed today at 2599.99. How ironic.

GEO: What's up with "the people's stock".

The much loved, hyped and traded GEO was dubbed as "the people's stock" on the blogosphere. It was popular, affordable and easy to buy and sell. Why was it so loved and where is it now? Why was it so loved? Well, as GEO would hover around the Php2.00 to Php3.00 level it was really easy to buy. At that level, most brokerages would let you buy it by the thousands. So with only a minimum of Php2k to Php3k you could already be trading it actively. The rise of internet trading had plenty to do with it. In addition, it would fall daily in the top 20 most traded stocks. Where is it now? Last close: Php0.88; It didn't even make it to the top 20 most traded. Even during its glory days at "the people's stock" that company wasn't pulling anything out of the ground. The latest buzz is that they inked an exploration deal with listed Nihao Mineral Resources and Chinese mining firm Jiangxi Rare Earth and Rare Metals Tungsten Group. No details have been released.
