Question by its4usassy: Asian Mutual Funds?
Can you guys suggest me some mutual funds/ ETFs that invest in Asian Markets, preferable excluding India, China & Japan.

I have already invested in DPCRX for China, MINDX for India. I am not interested investing any more in these two countries. Japan is always a BIG NO for me.
I should have been more specific. I am not looking into country specific funds. I am searching for Asia Funds (covering most of the asia) with minimum or negligible investment in China, India and Japan.

Answer by zyberianwarrior

I want to start laptop business..how should i start and what i actually require to start up?

September 1st, 2010 by Bank Loan | 3 Comments | Filed in News

Question by Exhilway: I want to start laptop business..how should i start and what i actually require to start up?
Give some tips to boost sales, name few suppliers in US and Asian markets, tips to boost customer loyalty

Best answer:

Answer by tabulator32
In order to have a successful laptop business, you need a short tight skirt and a those little sticky things that go on your nipples. Also, a good boom box with some “pump and grind: tunes ready to play.

Only take cash for your dances and make sure you have a private little space that won’t draw much attention to you and your client. A reserved room at a restaurant, bar or hotel works well.

Only take cash. No checks.

PMLG Takes Project Management to Asia

August 31st, 2010 by Bank Loan | No Comments | Filed in News


Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) March 15, 2007

Project Management Leadership Group will hold its world-renowned Certified Project Manager Boot Camp™ on May 20-25, 2007 in Singapore.

PMLG is offering for the first-time ever its unparalleled Certified Project Manager (CPM) Boot Camp™ to the public in Singapore. Individuals interested in gaining the skills, tools and knowledge of completing a project on-time and on budget should participate in this dynamic, intense training experience. During this 5 ½ day total immersion training, participants apply the techniques learned through participating in a fun, simulated project environment. Through several different and challenging workshops, participants will leave this training with the successful techniques and tools for managing any size and complexity of a project.

Bill Stewart, CEO and President of PMLG, Inc., is a 30 year project management veteran and a pioneer of the project office concept. “PMLG plans to double our business this year and then double again next year, with about half of that growth coming from our expansion into the Asian-Pacific market.” The main reason Stewart selected Singapore is because the city-state is central to all Asian markets both geographically and culturally and is very open to American business with a strong desire for project management methodology. Stewart plans on using his Singapore business as a springboard for expansion into Australia, Korea, Malaysia and China, where he sees, “without question, the largest market in the region.”

While participants leave PMLG’s CPM Boot Camp™ with the tools and techniques for successfully completing any size project, they also gain invaluable leadership skills necessary for leading all types of projects. These leadership skills are obtained by participating in several challenging, yet realistic team building exercises that test and develop their individual leadership skills. Eighty percent of a Project Manager’s job involves effective communication and leadership abilities. Our hands-on workshops and teambuilding activities will provide the student with the skills needed to be an effective, yet dynamic leader.

“Over the years I have attended a number of project management classes, but PMLG’s Boot Camp is the only one where I learned techniques I could directly apply to managing projects better.” “I truly believe that without the PMLG training, we would not have achieved the on time, in scope and within budget results we are experiencing today.” These two student testimonials just begin to touch the thoughts and feelings of the students when they leave this unbelievable training experience. Our students leave with a feeling of accomplishment and the desire to return to their jobs with the confidence needed to successfully complete their projects.

The six day boot camp begins on Sunday with team building and leadership development. Students are divided into two teams and are assigned to a project which they will work on throughout the week. Each evening, they apply what they learned in an engaging team environment. Through this hands-on learning opportunity, students gain skills, techniques and tools in team building and project planning. Each student will have the opportunity to lead their team as the project manager. On Friday morning, students take a written examination and will participate in a comprehensive project simulation that will test their knowledge and skills learned during the week at boot camp. Two experienced PMLG instructors are assigned to each boot camp and provide coaching and mentoring to all participants throughout the week and thereafter.

PMLG, Inc. is a leading project management and professional services firm with a proven approach for rapidly moving organizations to a culture of disciplined planning and execution if strategic projects and programs. This mission is accomplished by providing a wide range of practical and proven products, services and training programs, delivered by experienced and talented project management professionals. PMLG sets itself apart from other professional services in that 100% of our focus is on providing rapid knowledge transfer. PMLG is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia with offices throughout the United States and Internationally. PMLG is a PMI Global Registered Education Provider and is IACET approved.

Currency Relationships and the Effects of Time Zones

Currency Relationships and the Effects of Time Zones

Knowing when to enter the market is crucial to exercising a good technical trading strategy.  There are many pitfalls that inexperienced traders experience because they are entering the market when the probability for making a successful trade is reduced.  So when is the best time to look for a trade and why?

The best time to look for a trade is when there is heavy volume in the currency markets.  Since the Forex market is open 24 hours per day, it’s best to find the times when multiple countries markets are trading at the same time.  Every Forex market in the world operates from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. in their respective time zones.  In order to take advantage of the chance of many trades developing, one needs to look at when the Forex market times in different countries overlap.  In the overlapping times when multiple markets are open, generally there is the most volume and pip movement.

For instance, it is best to trade the EUR/USD, USD/CHF, or GBP/USD between 8am EST and 12pm EST because the US market is just opening at 8am EST while the European market is finishing up for the day. Another good time to trade is in the middle of the night from 1am EST to 3am EST as many trades develop as the Asian markets are closing and the European markets are opening.  The Australian and Asian Markets overlap between 7pm and 10pm EST as well which offer good opportunities.  Generally speaking, one can just shut off their computer and not bother looking for trades from 4pm-6pm EST as the US markets close and there are no overlapping markets in those times, so although there may be profitable trades one could enter, the volume is much lower and it is far less likely great trades will develop.   The Canadian market does not play a big role in affecting the markets so just trade along with the US market times when the European, Asian, or Australian markets are open.  

Many currency pairs tend to trend in the same direction (parallel) or opposite directions (inversely).  Traders can use this information to plan to trade more than one pair knowing that they have a high probability of moving in the same or inverse direction.  

The general rule is that these pairs listed below tend to trend in parallel relationships.  The Euro and Cable tend to move together the most.
EUR/USD and GBP/USD
USD/CHF and USD/JPY
AUD/USD and NZQ/USD

And, these pairs below tend to move inversely the most.  The Euro and the Swissy tend to move inversely the most.
EUR/USD and USD/CHF
GBP/USD and USD/JPY
AUD/USD and USD/CAD

Lastly, remember that when trading, Bulls and Bears make money, but pigs get slaughtered.  Don’t be too greedy.  Trade with proper equity management and never risk more than 2% of your trading account on a single trade.  Look for 10%-30% pip gains and move on to the next trades.  Building small consistent profits will add up to large long-term gains.  Trade during times when markets overlap, and use information on parallel and inverse relationships to determine whether or not to enter on trades on multiple currency pairs at the same time.

Wishing You Success!
