Jeff Gundlach on Why own Bonds.

“Let me be clear. This is absolutely wrong. Yields are NOT going to rise any time soon.”

There is one thing about being an asset manager. Timing is everything. The synonym for“early” in the investment business – is “wrong.” If you had bought the Nikkei two years ago you would now be right – after losing about 20%. Now is the right time.

Talking heads on CNBC started talking about a new bull market in stocks.   REALLY? That started 4 years ago folks.   We are likely closer to the end of a bull market cycle than a beginning.

Lastly, why own bonds, because they are negatively correlated to stocks. You may not get rich - but you will survive the long term investment game.

Fun Theory : GuocoLand unveils tallest building in Singapore

Fun theory about how market peak co-incides with tallest buildings.

http://malaysiafinance.blogspot.sg/2008/08/tallest-buildings-as-leading-indicator.html

All three buildings were conceived in the bull market and built through the peak, only to open for business amid the worst office-space market in decades.
As each of these buildings were completed, they opened during down-trodden markets.

The signal to sell appears when the tallest building is conceived or begins construction.

Guess what.. :)

Someone just conceived and will begin construction of the tallest building in Singapore! :) It's due for completion in 2016. Of course.. It is still shorter than most of the tallest building in the world. But it is tallest in Singapore :) How much of a correlation do you think it will be between market peak and tallest buildings?
