AIMS AMP Capital Industrial REIT: Good value.

On 28 Sep, I mentioned that I bought more units at 21.5c believing that the REIT still offered good value at this price with a yield of 9.67%.  I also said that "21.5c is psychologically important as it is the midpoint of the old trading range of 20c to 23c".

Today, we see some quiet buying up in this REIT. Of the 2,085 lots which changed hands, 1,672 lots were bought up at 22.5c. Technically, this has created a buy signal in the MACD histogram. The MFI has just dipped into oversold territory while the RSI is bordering on oversold.

There are some who believe that the price would suffer on the 15th when the rights units commence trading with pessimistic forecasts of as low as 20c. If people are willing to sell at 20c, well, I am willing to buy as that would give me a yield of 10.4% per annum.

Genting SP: Fatigue.

Price gapped down today and formed a doji, closing at $2.03. It is quite obvious now that a lower high was formed yesterday and price is being supported by the 20dMA today. That the 20dMA was breached as recently as last week does not inspire confidence that it would be a strong support.

The MACD histogram has turned red, a sell signal, while the MACD continues its decline beneath the signal line in positive territory. The correction has resumed. MFI and RSI both formed lower highs which suggest reduced demand and slowing buying momentum. OBV suggests ongoing distribution.

Unless there is a sudden spike in volume in buying up, the odds are that prices could move lower and the next support, if $2 should break, is at $1.85.  Of course, just as prices do not move up in a straight line, prices would not move down in a straight line either. There is always a river of hope.

K-REIT: Immediate target.

I suggested that K-REIT's price action could be falling into trading bands.  If we look at the chart, it seems quite obvious.  Today, price traded at and above $1.34, the resistance identified on 14 Sep when I said "K-REIT seems to be trading in a 6c trading range recently: $1.16 to $1.22 and $1.22 to $1.28".  I also said "in the event that $1.28 resistance is taken out, one could therefore expect $1.34 to be the next resistance level."

With $1.34 now possibly resistance turned support, the next resistance level should be at $1.40.  This is likely to be a stronger resistance level as it is also a round number.  Fundamentally, at $1.40, K-REIT would be trading at a mere 4.8% discount to NAV and its yield would be pretty low at 3.8%. I would probably do a partial divestment if price does test $1.40.

Buying gold? Wait for a correction.

Jim Rogers predicts "more turmoil" in the currency markets, more problems in the stock market, weakness in bonds and, ultimately, inflation.

"Gold could correct for a few months [but] the bull market in gold is not over - far from it," he says. "I'm much more bullish on agriculture than I am even on gold. I own both."

In the meantime, he owns the Swiss franc, euro and yen but is not actively short any currencies, including the greenback.

In case of a correction, I see immediate support at US$1,250 an ounce, followed by US$1,200 an ounce.
