November 21st 2006 06:23
The Portfolio 1.5 - EW Monday joined the market in what was the biggest one-day fall in three months. The portfolio closed 4.62% lower to a value of 25.21% from Friday's 29.83%. Net cost profits fell below the tenth thousands at $9,687.
The market on Monday reacted and incorporated the negative global economic outlook lead by the US which is expected to spend less than before in the run-up to Christmas. A total value of $20 billion was wiped off by investors. The ASX S&P 200 benchmark index loss 97.3 points to 5322.4 on Monday.
Analysts consider the big day loss a blip and recovery is expected today as the fundamentals of the economy are firm. Yesterday's fall was also attributed to massive profit taking after the market surged by 10% since September, which is considered overpriced relative to the fundamentals and the Monday's fall present an opportunity for bargain hunting as there are still some distance for the price-earning ratios to run.
As of writing this post, the ASX S&P 200 benchmark index posted 35.6 points higher or 0.67% to 5358.
