Thailand, it’s a very different investor scenario. "The movie in reverse".

The pandemic numbers here seem to be getting a bit better, while at the same time the market did not breakdown before -as many feared.  Time will tell.

With the SET benchmark index back at 1600, a major resistance point, one has to wonder will it, on...

Observations from a long time professional investor.

Observations from a long time/real time, professional investor.

Sunday morning in the mist.

The covit19 pandemic situation is again getting more dire in Thailand. The difference now is “all hell has broken loose” in getting millions of vaccines into this country fast. This is starting to happen.
