Genting SP: A strong rebound.

STI increases 1.1% to 3,130.90 at closing. The measure advanced 1.2% this week, its sixth weekly gain. Three stocks rose for each that fell on the 30-member gauge.

Together with the STI's stellar performance, Genting SP staged a strong rebound.  The MACD histogram turned green, a buy signal but the rise in price was not accompanied by heavy volume.  This suggests that price rebounded on short covering and that it rose because of a lack of sellers and not because of an abundance of buyers.

This rebound was probably a good chance for bulls to reduce exposure. Personally, I feel that a resumption of a downward movement towards the 50dMA is likely and that further upside could be capped by the 38.2% Fibo line at $2.05. However, with an upgrade by OCBC, I wonder which way it would go.  It is a grand tug of war between research houses.

Golden Agriculture: 56c support.

Golden Agriculture seems to have found support at 56c. As the falling MACD made contact with zero, the histogram turned green: a buy signal.  Today's white candle is on the back of relatively low volume and that to me is not convincing of a recovery. However, this does not mean that price could not enjoy a respite and rebound.  If a rebound takes place, it would confirm the buy signal on the MACD histogram but could meet with immediate resistance at 57.5c.

Well, 56c is only one bid shy of 55.5c which is where we find the rising 200dMA which coincides with the uptrend support line.  This is, therefore, likely to be a rather strong support.  So, buying at 56c for anyone who would like to have a stake in Golden Agriculture seems fairly safe.  Personally, I am waiting for the dust to settle.
