Warping up 2009, Looking forward 2010

What a roller coaster ride is was for 2009. The year started with the continued free falling of the market from the financial down melt down of 2007-2008. Then in March, the market stage a spectacular recovery. Skeptics said it is just a bear market rally and the worst is yet to come, drawing parallel from 1930s Great Depression period.

But it was not to be, the market rallied to a second dip in end Jun, early July. Now pundit wasn’t so sure. Is it the end of the rally or more is to come?

Well, the market never look back since then, ending 2009 in a high note.

I hope you had a profitable 2009 and another ahead in 2010.

Happy New Year!
