buy hdb or private?

:ashamed1:

can buy BTO buy BTO, cannot buy DBSS, still cannot buy EC, EC cannot buy PC MMs, PC MMs cannot buy resale HDB, resale HDB cannot, buy 2br PC, still cannot :banghead:

[phantom_opera]

Bernanke should be nominated as person of the year, not Obama:

the Fed now owns some 29% of the entire amount of marketable ten-year equivalents outstanding in the entire US bond market. :scared-4:

the Fed's $3 trillion balance sheet, of which $1.7 trillion is in Treasurys, in the form of ten year equivalents :beats-me-man:

yet 10Y UST prices still falling :tsk-tsk:

Gross: a credit supernova to celebrate .. Mayan calendar has a point :-)

Happy CNY!

Phantom's fearless prediction of 2013:

1. 2013 is year of snake... extremely risky with high volatility following the roller coaster shape of snake. It could be toxic too. The toxic snake has arrived at Beijing, it is now confirmed the most toxic city we have ever seen in our life.

2. Interest rate will begin to normalize for > 10y bond, most successful bond issues will be 5-7y bond or even shorter ... and even 7-10y bond will slow normalize towards the end of the year ... 10y US TST will be around 2.3% by end of year with SGS 10y yield at 1.8-1.9% region ...

3. China stock market will range bound, this bounce from 1,950 will be up around 30% to 2,500 b4 consolidating ... China leaders might lead to sacrifice 1% of GDP to fix the envirnonment around Beijing / Tianjin region

4. US stock market will have major break through this year ... however, due to JPY starting to soften, currency war will erupt .. since USD has depreciated a lot since Lehman's time, a new high in Dow does not really mean a lot. It simply means a normalization of Dow gold ratio from 7 to around 10 (15,000/1,500)

5. HK property market will be the bright spot in Asia, Centalene index will appreciate 10% to 13x region while another CM will hit HK .... SG property market will be sleepy and 5% appreciation at the end of the year is my prediction with flat rental, equity will perform slightly better

Hi laguna.... does commercial include retail as well?
Or are they different?
If so, is the retail sector doing as well too?
