Case study 2... Trading vs Investing
OSIM ($1.96) - Crabcrab has did a posting on OSIm when it was at $1.80. After so many postings and discussions of 'concerns' and and airing 'views' of this company after this company was traded at $1.80, the next lesson to learn is that did we act fast on it or did we have too much concern that we missed such golden oppotunity? Did we have the foresight and guts feeling to follow through + luck to take into such rare opportunity when an opportunity to buy/sell arise if we take in a trading position? The true fact is that it has risen from $1.80 to $1.96 within a few days. This is where we called a window of rare opportunity for a 'trading' stock. We need price difference or volatility and don't think too much of the intrinsic value in it. We just need to focus on the current and supply and demand that make the price volatility. Who short the shares? Guessing the no. of shares the shortists on hands or are they likely to be borrowed shares? In contrary, look at the price performance of those 'value' stock during the same period like 'Hiap Hoe' and 'Bonvest'. The price just stagnant there as there are no catalyst for price movement. Again, the question asked, so is ourselves a trader or investor?
