Truly Rich Club Mentor's Advice To ALL Members: You’re Taking a Masters Degree on the Greatest Investing Strategy in the World

According to my Philippine Stock Market investing mentor, all the members of the Truly Rich Club are now in the advance learning education? (eh di WOW!), as if we're now taking Masters Course in Investment. 

"If you’ve been a part of the TrulyRichClub for some years now, without knowing it, you’re taking a Masters Course in the Greatest Investing Strategy in the World. It’s a Masters Degree not because it’s complicated. (It’s so insanely simple. But sadly, what is simple isn’t usually received well because we like to look for sophisticated solutions.) It’s a Masters Degree because it takes a few years for people to finally “get it” and say, “Ah, it’s really this simple to grow your money in the stock market.”

One of the bedrock truths of The Greatest Strategy of Investing is that you must invest in a boring way. Specifically, you must buy into boring behemoth companies."

Go give some update on the latest happening about the Philippine Stock Market, below is the latest news from online Philstar business section:

Market return to 8,000 level expected this week

"The stock market is looking to make its return to the 8,000 level in the coming days following a strong finish last week that saw the benchmark index erase huge losses incurred the previous sessions.

Analysts still see a sideways trading this week, with local corporate earnings and some upcoming events in the US as possible factors for a rally or another consolidation. 

“Volatile trading is expected, as first quarter US GDP is slated for release.  Several will check on the Federal Open Market Committee’s announcement, with special attention to the timing and degree of an interest rate hike,” said Jason Escartin, investment analyst at F. Yap Securities.

“On a more positive light, an improvement in the US economy will be a boon to another dollar-earner segment of our economy - exports. This may at the very least buffer the impact of the expected outflow that a US interest rate hike may trigger,” added Justino Calaycay Jr., analyst at Accord Capital Equities Corp.

For Calaycay, what is important at present is for the Philippines  to maintain its present fiscal discipline and continue to hold the international community’s faith and trust in the strides the country has taken in the last half-decade."

How to Be a Great Stock Market Investor [The Truly Rich Way]

Successful investing is NOT easy. There, I’ve said it. No point beating around the bush.

Don’t get me wrong. It’s not technically difficult. In fact, that’s the easy part. As you know, my maids and messengers have been investing successfully for years now. After a few clicks, they know how to operate the COL Financial website. They know how to buy and sell.

I repeat, that’s the easy part. It’s not the technical part that’s difficult. Successful investing is emotionally difficult. You could be a rocket scientist and fail in investing because you don’t know how to control your emotions. And that, my dear friend, is the GREAT SECRET of successful investing in the stock market: CONTROL YOUR EMOTIONS.

Let me give you an example. Today, we have the almost perfect condition of the stock market: If you buy at these low prices, you make the most long-term profit. But our emotions don’t see that. All we see is our stock market portfolio dripping with blood. All we see is that our money is 10 percent or 15 percent lesser on paper. And we “feel” depressed. Discouraged. Despondent. So we’re not excited to buy. Instead, we want to sell, run, and cry. But I assure you—if you can control your emotions—you’ll be a great stock market investor.

Below is some latest Philippine stock market investing news: 

Aquino sets sights on market hitting 9,000 as PSEi doubles under his term

President Benigno Aquino III is optimistic that the Philippine Stock Exchange index (PSEi) will hit 9,000 before his term ends.

“I expect to ring the bell in celebration of the index breaching the 9,000 and 10,000 levels hopefully before I step down from office,” Aquino told members of the PSE board of directors and officials of listed companies during the bell ringing ceremony on Tuesday morning.

Aquino rang the opening bell at the PSE in Makati City, more than a week after the PSEi closed above the 8,000 level.

Last Friday, it reached its all-time high at 8,127.48 points.

Aquino recalled that when he first assumed office in 2010, the PSEi was still on the cusp of breaching the 4,000 level.

“Now, looking back, I cannot help but think: How times have changed, and might I add: For the better,” he said.

The President said there is a lot of optimism in the economic performance of the country.

“I am told that trading activity increased by 40 percent year on year, from P457.08 billion in the first quarter of 2014, to P641.59 billion in the same period of 2015,” he said. “Within that same period, net foreign buying also grew by 182 percent, from P17.33 billion in the first quarter of 2014, to P48.87 billion in the first quarter of 2015.”

Aquino pointed out that the PSE would soon migrate to a new trading system called PSETrade XTS, “which possesses an enhanced trading capacity and increased risk management parameters.”

He said it will serve the PSE well and he is hopeful that the index will breach the 9,000 and 10,000 levels before his term ends in 2016.

Philippine Stock Exchange Targets All-Time High Of 9,000

After clocking 27 record finishes so far this year and breaking past the 8,100 level, the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) now eyes to break past the 9,000 level.

The PSE expressed optimism that the local stock market will be able to break past the 9,000 level, which will be an all-time high.

The PSE issued the statement as President Benigno Aquino III sounded the opening bell on Tuesday.

In today’s early tarding, the Philippine Stock Exchange index (PSEi) opened at 8,081.61, higher by 8.39 points or 0.10 percent from the previous trading day.

Meanwhile, strong corporate earnings in the Philippines have enticed foreign stock investors to flock into the country, triggering a USD1.1bn jump in net foreign purchases in Q1 of this year.

Reuters data showed that the net foreign purchases of Philippine shares in January to March recorded the highest for any quarter in almost three years.

In contrast, Indonesia and Vietnam posted USD416m and USD18m in net foreign stock buying in the said quarter, respectively.

Thailand, meanwhile, recorded USD260.02m in net selling. Rafael Algarra, EVP of Security Bank Corp’s treasury division told Reuters that index shares in the Philippines are being pushed up to the funds coming into Asia, particularly in the Philippines.

The Philippine stock market has clocked 27 record finishes so far this year.

Do You Want To Know Why Foreign Stock Investors Like Indonesia...But Love Philippines?

We have been reading and hearing a lot of good news about the Philippine economy, the uptrend of the Philippine Stock Market, as well as the status of our GDP. Despite the some negative connotation of many, the Philippine economy continues to expand and grow and we believe this growth has been attracting a lot foreign investor not only in Asia but from around the world. 

PHL seen outpacing peers till 2016

"THE PHILIPPINES could further eclipse its peers in the region this year and next as the economy is projected to grow faster than initially expected in both periods, Standard & Poor’s (S&P) said in a new report it released yesterday, citing the country’s strong domestic activity.

Bullish business sentiment, coupled with low inflation and higher government spending, likely prodded economic growth to 6.5-7% in the first quarter of 2015, First Metro Investment Corp. (FMIC) and the University of Asia and the Pacific (UA&P) said separately yesterday.

In a report, titled: “Slowing China The New Norm: Balancing Credit Stability And Continual Tailwinds,” S&P said Philippine gross domestic product (GDP) could grow by 6.2% in 2015 and 6.4% in 2016. Both estimates are slightly faster than the 6.1% and the 6.3% S&P had given in February for the respective years.

The forecasts, however, still fall short of the 7-8% growth target the government had set for both years.

Nevertheless, the global debt watcher expects the Philippines to continue to be the main growth engine in Southeast Asia, which is projected to grow at an average pace of 5.1% this year and 5.3% in 2016.

The report said the Philippines will “continue to see strong consumption and investment” this year and next.

Asked to elaborate, S&P economist Vincent R. Conti said in an e-mail: “We continue to expect the Philippine economy to expand by around 6% per annum over the next few years, driven by robust consumption and investment growth.”

“This strength in the domestic economy will be underpinned by the growing outsourcing sector and the rising middle class.”


Last year, economic growth came in at 6.1%, a few points shy of the government’s 6.5-7.5% target after a five-quarter-high of 6.9% was logged in October-December. Crawling farm sector output and lower-than-programmed -- and at times even contracting -- state spending had weighed on growth for much of last year."

Foreign stock investors like Indonesia...but love Philippines

"Net foreign purchases of Philippine shares jumped to $1.1 billion in January-to-March, the highest for any quarter in almost three years and more than twice the net volume of funds flowing into Southeast Asia's biggest economy Indonesia.

Government stimulus programmes in Japan and Europe have unleashed a global flood of liquidity. Investors have flocked to the Philippines, drawn by strong corporate earnings, analysts say. The broad market index in Manila has clocked 27 record finishes so far this year. The benchmark has also been boosted by the increased weighting of the country in the MSCI Emerging Markets and MSCI Asia ex-Japan indexes in February.

"We see lots of funds coming into Asia, and particularly, in the Philippines. That's why index shares are being pushed up," Rafael Algarra, executive vice president of Security Bank Corp's treasury division, told Reuters. In contrast, Indonesia and Vietnam posted $416 million and $18 million in net foreign stock buying, respectively. Thailand recorded $260.02 million in net selling, Reuters data shows.

Foreign funds are enticed by the outlook for the consumption-driven Philippine economy versus those of its neighbours, said Michaelangelo Oyson, president of the securities arm of Bank of the Philippine Islands. The big winners in the first quarter included snacks and beverage maker Universal Robina Corp, and conglomerates LT Group Inc and GT Capital Holdings Inc, both of which own consumer goods businesses, Oyson said."

Here Are Five Easy Steps To Get You Started On Investing The Philippine Stock Market

The 28th president of the United States Woodrow Wilson said it right when he said,  “I not only use all the brains that I have, but all I can borrow.”, beautiful isn't it?

We really need to work with other people, collaborate ideas, research on other people good concept, ideas and practices. When it comes to stock market strategies in the Philippines, understand all the details, ins and outs of stock market investing is not easy, for me I cannot do it on my own. That's the one reason I subscribed on the Truly Rich Club, but then I am not purely relying in all the inputs coming from the Truly Rich Club. I also do my own research.  

For the newbie on stock market investing in the Philippines, to those who wanted to enter in this arena, here's some tips I read from online news about some steps to get you started on investing in the Philippine Stock Market.

"Here are five steps to get you started on investing in equities:

1. Assess yourself.

Before you begin to invest in stocks, it is important to know what you need and want, and to determine if equity investing is for you.

Here are some questions to ask yourself:

h

What are your financial goals?

Before investing on anything, know your financial objectives vis-à-vis your current financial assets and your life stage. This will give you an idea as to how to craft your investment strategy. The investment strategy of a 50-year old retiree with real estate, money market placements, and insurance plans will obviously be very different from a 21-year-old who has just received his first bonus. Once you have an investment strategy in place, then you can decide on what investment vehicles are best for you, including equities.

What is your appetite for risk?

Stock investing, it must be stressed, is not for everyone. Equities carry risks, and the money you put into shares of stock is not insured by the government. Therefore, if you are not in a position to lose part or all of your investment money, stocks may not be a suitable option for you. Equities are best for those who are willing to take on a degree of risk in exchange for larger gains.

What other investments do you have?

Investing in equities should be seen in the context of your entire investment portfolio, with a goal to diversify your holdings in order to manage your risks.

What is your time frame?

Studies have also shown that equities tend to grow in value over a long period of time. Stocks are best for those without time pressures to deal with.

Do you have the time and the capacity to manage your stock portfolio?

Stock investing requires understanding how the market works, as well as the companies whose shares you intend to buy. If you do not have both, then you should look for a broker to help you manage your stock transactions.

2. Find a stockbroker.

The Philippine Stock Exchange has a list of brokers that you can refer to. There are also brokerage houses that allow you to do online trading, which some find to be a more convenient way of handling transactions. Some banks also offer stock broking services. Brokers differ in the range of services they offer, as well as in the minimum investment amount that they require.

The larger brokerages servicing institutions and high-net-worth individuals typically offer research services on top of trading, while smaller ones can simply offer trading services. Ideally, your broker would take the time to ask you about your investment goals and ask about your appetite for risk.

3. Open a trading account.

Your selected broker will give you a list of requirements to fulfill. Make sure you understand its conditions well. Take note of transaction fees and other rules, like how to transact. If you will use an online trading platform, take the time to familiarize yourself with how it works.

4. Monitor your investments.

Periodically monitor the movement of the stocks in your portfolio. Closing prices may be monitored online, on TV and in business newspapers. Keep yourself informed of any dividend announcements, which may entitle you to cash or additional shares of stock.

5. Evaluate your investment strategy regularly.

Does it still dovetail with your financial goals? From time to time, you may wish to continue to add to your stock portfolio, or if it is time to allocate some funds to other investment platforms, based on changes in your personal circumstances and goals.

One last but very important point: Do not think of stock investing as a form of gambling.

While you might have heard of people who have amassed a fortune overnight over a single stock, this is the exception and not the rule. Investing in stocks and in everything else requires an understanding of your goals, patience, and a lot of ground work. This point will be the common thread in this series of four articles on how to get started on investing in different financial products."

Truly Rich Investors' SECRET: When It Comes to Investing in the Stock Market, Only One Thing Matters...

Let me share you this old article from the Truly Rich Club. I said old because I received this March of 2011, but don't worry, the lesson still applies today or even in the future, please read... 

“Bo, I was already afraid of the effects of Egypt and Libya on the stock market. And then the earthquake in Japan happens! I’m so worried about the stock market! What do you think will happen?” A friend had asked me this question.

Here’s my honest answer: I don’t know! And I say that with a smile on my face. In fact, I don’t think any human being out there really knows what will happen next. Will the uprisings in Saudi increase? Will Europe and the US recover from their recession this year? No one knows.

Yes, there’ll be a few people who will pretend to know. But in reality, all they can do—despite all the Ph.D’s behind their name—is guess.

If you were a trader, you should be worried that no one knows. In fact, you should be so nervous, you’d be pulling out all your money from the stock market and digging your head in the sand.

But you’re not a trader.You’re a long-term investor. If that’s the case, you should be thinking of only one thing. (I’ll tell you what that one thing is in a minute.) Forget what’s happening in Egypt, Libya, and Japan. (Pray for them, yes. But don’t let these events affect your monthly stock market investments.)

After 10 or 20 years of putting your small amounts of money each month into our recommended giant companies, I repeat: There’s really only one thing that should influence your buying or selling of stocks.  And that one thing is what you’re going to look at, crisis or no crisis, tsunami or no tsunami, meltdown or no meltdown.

You see, traders look at a thousand factors. They look at the political situation in the Middle East, calamities in Japan, oil prices going up or down, US dollar depreciation, China’s economic growth, President’s Aquino’s love life… Okay, that last item is a joke. (But who knows? Traders look at everything.) But investors?

They simply look at one thing alone. What is that? Company earnings. Period.

We ask, “Are my favorite giant companies earning big money? And what’s the probability that they’ll continue to earn big money for the next 10 years?”
