Why Filipinos do not become business owners or entrepreneurs

For a majority of Filipinos, entrepreneurship does not seem to be a typical, expected path. This is not surprising, considering that in school, students are primarily taught to become employees after graduation. Students train for years to become staff workers, reporting to a supervisor, and just waiting to receive their wages or salaries every month. ... Read more

My experience investing in Mutual Funds in the Philippines

  1. Thanks for this info James! Your forum is really great. I hope I can also establish a forum such as yours in my blog since we share the same niche. However, I just heard that forums are easily the target of hackers.

    A friend of mine who runs a new forum said that someone registered a lot of accounts in his forum with only 1 IP address. And the intention is to spam the forum. So they have to delete it one by one.

Personally, I’d like to contribute regularly and post portions of my daily insights here. I normally post it on my blog site http://guscosio.wordpress.com which I try to update on a daily basis on weekdays.

  3. I’m of the view that TEL’s finances would be unaffected by the MER/MPI M&A activity in spite of them being controlled by the same share holder. As far as I’m concerned, TEL owns 20% of MER at an average price of around 91 per share. Remember that they accumulated from a low of 65 to a high of 126. My math works it out that they have some positive values in their books if the value of their MER holdings is now, say, 200. The value gain should have some sort of impact on TEL.

    I also mentioned in yesterday’s post that I was sensing a push in SPH. I’m very sure today that a buy program is indeed going on. While I expect some resistance forming in the stock around 4.00 due to the traders that got stuck on the stock in the last buy cycle, my instinct tells me that the target of this cycle is around 4.50 at least. We may be lucky and it goes to 5.00. The reason why I’m comfortable on betting on this stock is because I’m very familiar with the company’s financials and operation and I try to stay in touch with their Investors Relations officer. Furthermore, I believe that there are specialized funds that are on the prowl for small cap companies with good brand equity for their products. One such venture fund told me of their investment criteria for small cap companies and I reckon that SPH fits their bill.

  4. Over all, I think that our market should be in good shape. It is not as if prices have moved up faster than earnings because there is little evidence of that. It is more like local stock prices have been very cheap together with the broad market. We could see some weakness in the coming weeks, but I think it will only be in sympathy with the global equities market. Nevertheless, now that the fear to invest in the developed markets is greater, the level of comfort of investors in the Philippines could just go higher.

    • there is a floor and ceiling which designed to protect investors, i think its 40% floor and 50% ceiling, meaning the stock prices can drop nothing but 40% of its opening price and can surge up to 50%, for example; mpi opened at 2.00, they can drop down to 1.20 and they can go up to 3.00, hope it helps
