Charts in brief: 13 May 10.

CapitaMalls Asia:  MFI continues to rise from the oversold region.  MACD turned up towards the signal line. OBV has turned up. Things are looking up, it seems.  Then, we see the white candle with a long wick on top.  This is a weak white candle. Volume has expanded but not significantly so on an up day.

$2.12 remains a strong resistance as market participants remember this as the support that failed not so long ago on 4 May.  The descending 20dMA is, coincidentally, at $2.12 as well which adds to the downward pressure. 

I queued overnight to reduce exposure at 2 bids below resistance at $2.10, cutting losses in the process.  I am not confident that $2.12 could be taken out but if it does get taken out, the next resistance is at $2.19, the bottom of the base formation earlier in February.

Golden Agriculture: CPO's price declined again today, continuing its downtrend. For Golden Agriculture, it is quite obvious that 55.5c continues to be a formidable resistance. That the decline has halted is evident as the MACD has flattened. The OBV has flattened too.  Price seems to be moving sideways within a range for now. 53c to 55.5c is my observation.  The near term downtrend is still intact.

LMIR: 1Q 2010 results.

For me, the important numbers are the following:

1. LMIR is trading at a huge 43% discount to NAV 84c.
2. Gearing is very low at 10%.
3. Annualised yield is 10% at the unit price of 48c.

Despite the very strong fundamentals, LMIR's unit price has been languishing.

Technically weak, it has closed below the 200dMA support today after forming lower highs since the start of the year. The next support is at 47c. If this breaks, price could fall to as low as 44c, I reckon.

MFI has been forming lower highs, suggesting a lack of positive buying momentum, making a further weakening in price for this REIT probable. So? I would definitely accumulate on weakness if it does come to that. 44c would be a bargain!

LMIR: More units at 10% yield.

AIMS AMP Capital Industrial REIT: Results.

A nice set of numbers and within expectations.  A dpu of 0.5376c will be paid out on 28 June. Annualised dpu of 2.1504c or an annualised yield of 10% based on a unit price of 21.5c.  Low gearing of 28.9% and a NAV of 31c make this REIT a very attractive proposition for anyone seeking reliable high yields as a source of passive income.

Technically, there seems to be some underlying support for this REIT.  MFI and OBV are both uptrending, although choppy. The MAs are uptrending too. 23c remains the resistance to watch and support has been established at 20.5c.  I would very much like to accumulate more units of this REIT.

Courage Marine: BDI is up 3.1% at 3,822 today. Looking good for dry bulk shipping. Very low volume today with price at 19.5c. MFI remains in the oversold region. OBV is flat. Investors are not taking up big positions either way. Waiting for the quarterly results? Maybe.

CapitaMalls Asia: Price is detaching from the lower limits of the Bollinger bands. Although momentum has turned up, the volume is low. Let us see if immediate resistance could be taken out and if $2.12 would be tested. I would definitely reduce exposure then.

SPH: The technical weakness is obvious. Volume has been declining as price rebounded from a low of $3.76 four sessions ago. MFI has been forming lower highs. I would wait to accumulate on further weakness.  If price falls closer to $3.70, I would be tempted.
