If their slow processing is an indication of how slow my internet connection will be, then I think I’m better off looking for a new internet service provider.
PLDT-Digitel deal hikes PSE index by 3%
Finally it happened. The Philippine Stock Exchange index (PSEi) received a much-needed boost yesterday, thanks to the news of PLDT acquiring a majority stake in Digitel.

The market rally was led by PLDT (stock code: TEL) which gained 15.72% in one day, closing at P2,356. TEL was also yesterday’s most actively traded and top gainer stock.
