KSE-100 index plummets by 1,300 points during intra-day trading

[Neutron]

@Thinkingsoldier , I have a different view. Small investors who are investing, will make money provided they are 'investing' and not trading. Pakistan overall is still expected to do well, once the non-sense is over. Crude prices are dropping and it will bring down the overall import bill.

Of course, if you are trying to trade, its a different ball game. In my humble opinion, people who have proper jobs, should not be trading. Of course, its my opinion. People who have been trading, would have either quit their positions or gone short.

We cannot expect from small investors to hold for years.
If a person entered in the market at 36000 it is very difficult for him / her to recover loss before 3 months even if he/ she is having holding power.
it requires steel nerves to survive in these market conditions.
Market behaviour is irrational, irrespective of technical or fundamental analysis. Research reports are not readily available to the small investor. They get reports very late. Every brokage house after accumulating good stock releases his research reports to small clients. These are the bad practices.

Stock Markets Crashed all over Asia.....

KSE crashed 1402 points Today highest drop in the history

It is not a crash. KSE is not yet down 10% from its high. 10 to 20 % is correction. If there is no reversal after 20% you can consider it crash

1400 Points Minus On A Volume Of Just 100 Million shares.... This Is Pure Panic. Nothing Else. Nothing. And All Previous World Falls Have Made It Evident That Panic ALONE Is The Cause Of All Evil In The Markets. It Is Absolutely FASHIONABLE To Start Predicting A Crash Once The Market Goes Into A HEAVY Red Zone. Everybody, Specially In The Social Media Age Wants To Become Famous Jumping On The Bandwagon ONCE The Market Has Lost A Few Thousand Points By PREDICTING A CRASH. But Its EXTREMELY Difficult To Look At Matters Being Unbiased And Logically And See The REAL AFFECT Of The Sell Off. The Same PANIC Creators Will Be Buying Back EVERYTHING Once The Market Stabilizes And Will SCREAM That It HAD BOTTOMED OUT. Nobody Can Predict The Bottom. Nobody. If They Were Able To,They Would Short Sell Everything Instead Of Selling LONG. Bottom Is ALWAYS A GUESS.

When You Go to Sell In A RED MARKET, You will Not Find A Buyer. Because It Is The Fear Of Further Losses. Nothing Else. The Same People Who Used To Quote The Famous Rothschild "Buy When There Is Blood On The Streets" Are Running Scared When There Are Just A Few DROPS OF BLOOD On The Streets. Its Easy To Find Quotes On GOOGLE For Every Direction Of The Markets. Lol. COPY IT And PASTE IT. I Am Facing Losses Just As All Of You Are.

Calculate The Ratio Of The Volume With Index Drop And You Will Realize That PANIC Is Everywhere. We Are In A 10% Loss Territory From The All Time High Of The Markets. A 10% Downfall Is A Correction Territory. Between 10 to 20% Is Correction Territory. ALWAYS. This Market Needs To Settle Between Here And Further 10%. Until Then.... Do What Your Heart Desires. Create Further Panic Or Sit Tight While There Is "Blood On The Streets"

Just to update, stocks are back up. HUBCO trading around 100....was less than 98 earlier.......so it was a good buy opportunity.

KSE is a small Stock Exchange manipulated by few large investors. They manipulate and artificially increase the value of their stock and then sell at high crashing the market and then they buy the same stocks again at their reduced value.

Isn't that what every investor in the world does?

Down lost 600 points today at the NYSE and over 1000 since last week. The global trend is emerging from oil and the Chinese market. My small investment has taken quiet a hit, too. but let's see if I can buy some stocks at these low prices tomorrow.

This is typical profit cashing in scenario. Wait for a week or two and all the shares will be back to the pre crash levels.

HUBCO was at 90 when i bought it few weeks back, it went to high of 104 before crashing to around 98 today. It will be back above 100 soon.

The idea is for big investors to buy cheap, rally, sell high, shares drop in price, buy more. Repeat the process.

So you don't panic and sell. This is hold or buy and hold opportunity.


A real market crash is when there are external factors within the nation or globe.......for example, Pakistan being sanctioned....that'll send the stock market crashing and you better sell at that moment. There are no negative triggers right now.

Agreed, i am actually buying right now, moving funds from money market into stocks. My estimation is, should pull about 10-15% in the week. It's actually sad how easy it is to make money in the stock market here in Pakistan, its as if the average investor is so stupid. I actually know a couple of these guys, they keep making the same mistakes over and over again.

Hubco is doing okay, but i prefer staying away from individual stocks and usually prefer investing in various funds. Less risk, solid return and less work.

The reason i mentioned HUBCO is that it is a very good 'holding' stock. It depends on how you want to invest. If you want to buy and sell and cash in profit, then this is not for you. But take note, HUBCO's total dividend announced for this year is about 12 rupees per share. So if you hold onto it, you are guaranteed side income through dividends. That way, market crashing doesn't affect you, because you are not selling the shares.
