The market seems going quite well however, the



market phenomenom seems telling us that there are some adjustment soon. Why? The US VIX start moving up, the Dow show the difficulties reaching the 8200 level. The 941 is start moving in HK Market. Usually the 941 moving up is the final round of the market high because the other security has reached their level. Besides, the HS index is already moving to 15682 almost 16000
I believe the safe stop to hedge is at 16000.

In these two days , the HK Equity market is manage by the big investor, the movement is not really logical. As they know more money is betting on the bear side, they play the bull side fast. As we all know that it is zero gain sum. I believe, they had gain a lot, as most of the bear people feel hopeless. The real bear is coming. This is only my own opinion. Welcome for any comment
