Global Economic Crisis

November 6, 2015

Alas, with the current global economic crisis is becoming more dangerous and more dangerous to deal with banks. Investing loans or taking deposits, must be very careful and a hundred times to be safe than to 'go without pants. " The banking system is very clever himself, and therefore, if you know some simple tricks, and be able to prove their case – you can either win or lose the least. Borrow and invest the deposits in two ways. They called 'complex' and 'simple'. Their 'trick' is that if the money is invested under the 'complex' deposit, then receives annually on account of the depositor five percent contribution from the scrip after the previous protsentovok. But if you take a complicated loan, then the lender can only sympathize, because every year you would pay more and more. If we speak of 'simple' deposit, in which case the investor will lose a rather big amount money.

Increase its annual contribution will be from the amount that was invested at the beginning. But the creditor is not bad on this win. The money and interest that he should reimburse the bank will not increase each year and therefore, are preserved a tidy sum in his purse. But no longer is an open secret that the banking system, will tell and swear quite differently. In another case, they will lose interest, and with them their earnings. Despite the that a customer who comes to the bank, get a big 'dose of noodles on my ears.

" I mean – either he will do with their money entirely in terms of the bank, without his or her right of choice, or may forget about this institution. According to recent news, investors now become everything is not so easy to pull out of the banks with their money. In late 2008, the financial institution did not give contributions in advance, now they refuse to return deposits and past money from current accounts. But the banks, even in the most difficult situations is not profitable for investors to sue, because it's their reputation, and money in any case have to give. Besides, during insertion of the deposit there is a whole mass of inconvenience. First, many banks have put restrictions on withdrawals from the card, usually a maximum of two thousand two hundred five hundred hryvnia – a ceiling, on the day. A very problematic finucherizhdeniya generally not allowed to shoot more than five hundred – seven hundred hryvnia per day. Moreover, few reputed banks, this is a desperate choice that only a person can do. If the depositor is a loan in which a bank, and invested the deposit, then, with Through its deposit investments, he can repay the bank loan, even if the loan and deposit located in different banking institutions. Just from one bank to transfer money to another. But in this case, the investor a lot of losing. Will remove not only the interest on the two banks, and when listing lost a large sum of money. So, before something similar to start, it is better to consult a hundred times and read a lot additional literature, than to be mistaken.

Trading Psychology

May 4, 2013

Traders often make fun of how preconceptions and so-called 'common wisdom' influence on their expectations. The market is in constant motion and the formation of excessively strong opinions, especially when it is simplified can lead to bias, which is hard to shake. That is why some traders are strongly warned against the formation of strong opinions. Not harmful and often questioning the so-called 'common wisdom ', which is true only if it satisfies a specific set of conditions. Flexible traders tend to start each day with a clean slate, so that they can 'track and respond' to the market better than those who mistakenly allow preconceived ideas about the market to distort their perceptions. It is vitally important to remain open-minded, flexible and willing to adapt to what makes a market in a given day. Here is an example of how preconceptions and blind adherence to common wisdom, may cause to miss what is happening at the moment. Common wisdom is that the strength of the U.S.

dollar affects the stock price. But this correlation is far from comprehensive. It is important remember that, although an interaction, it is not always strong. Over the past six months or so the U.S. dollar was relatively weak, but weak dollar is not particularly affected the stock price. Even in the most explicit intraday days weakness of the dollar, stocks are not too varied in response to fluctuations in the dollar. Hence, for the past six months, the so-called common wisdom did not help.

Flexible trader, knowing the common belief, can nevertheless see that in the current market hypothesis is not justified. Flexible, adaptive traders. They both consider what 'should happen' according to common wisdom, along with what is actually happening. Inert traders on the contrary, limited its unwavering commitment to preconceived notions. They do not have the openness of perception, they are looking for confirmation of the rules. Instead of skillfully operate under current market conditions, they wait confirmation rules. In this case, they are waiting for is actually going to happen is a strong correlation between the strength of the dollar and stock prices (which seems to have recently occurred). When that time finally comes, they will probably say: 'I did said '. Well … General wisdom is sometimes justified, otherwise it would not be it. This means that if you wait long enough, prejudice will receive a confirmation. But at what cost? Expecting this, you can skip a lot of good trade opportunities. Instead of allowing preconceptions to take over a top, it's better to look at the current market situation and take decisive action. In the short trading 'is significant when significant ', so that commitment to the rules of thumb can be misleading. It is vitally important to be adaptive. Every day we must ask questions: 'What's in the market? " Maybe you need to open trade only in the long side. Maybe you need to sell dauntik on the mini, when Bonds did tick up. Maybe you need to buy power on the mid cap stocks with large short interest, as they well go up, even though the decline the major indexes. Being adaptive, you can simply choose what seems to be working every day and has a much better chance of success. So start each day with an open reception. And if you form an opinion, know how to temporarily set aside, not allowing it to resist your ability to be objective, and adaptive to the market today is telling you.

Compared with the II quarter of 2007, this year, mortgage lending for the II quarter increased by 1.5 times. According to the St. Petersburg Mortgage Agency: 5574 loan had been issued from April to June, amounting to 14.6 billion rubles. In comparison with I quarter of the number and volume of mortgages has not changed, although last year for the three months the market has doubled. Central Bank, without regard to the results of certain subsidiaries, issued in the I quarter of mortgage loans worth 12.3 billion rubles. In II quarter will be about the same as predicted Anna Ivanova, Head of Public Relations of the St. Petersburg branch of the credit broker “Fosborn Home.” According to her, because of rising property prices growth growth has slowed.

During the first half of 2008, housing prices in the primary market increased by an average of 28% in the secondary – 20%. Potential in the mortgage market is high, its development impeded by the high prices and limited purchasing power, says Sergey Milutin – Head of the St. Petersburg Mortgage Agency. With the help of a mortgage loan is made about 20% of transactions involving the acquisition of housing, he estimates. The average loan amount, according to agency, is 2.54 million rubles.

Leadership is retained by the Northwest Savings Bank, a 20% increase in the number of loans for three months, and their volume – by 40%. In second place – “VTB 24”, retaining virtually unchanged their indicators. “We do not experience any difficulties with funding, in the second quarter, we experienced reduced customer flow, but by opening two additional centers and mortgage lending continue to work with existing managed to hold them “- said Tatiana Khobotova, head of mortgage and consumer crediting of the branch” VTB 24 “. But the Bank “Saint Petersburg”, who held second place, reduced the issuance of mortgage loans nearly 450 million rubles. The Bank operates in accordance with the approved development strategy and plan has now been exceeded, the press service quoted Paul Filimonenkov, deputy chairman of board of bank “St.-Petersburg”. Halved volumes of mortgages for the investment bank “KIT Finance”, has maintained a 4th place in the ranking. In St. Petersburg, the dynamics of mortgage loans has slowed, it is connected with the general market conditions, including the rising cost of housing, but Data volumes are acceptable, according to a press service Anastasia Frolov, Managing Director, “KIT Finance”. According to her, the bank determined the optimal amount that is ready to give in on mortgage loans programs, it is responsible goals, both in terms of business development, and in terms of future securitization and subsequent sale of mortgages. Banks, who have to work on the scheme of refinancing forced to cut back, said Milutin. Many banks have difficulty borrowing in international markets, so that state-owned banks that have access to cheaper resources in the domestic market are more advantageous position, says Ivanov. Banks with state capital intensified for them not only to mortgage business perspective, but also a social project, I’m sure Filimonenok. For a private bank mortgage interest only in the long term further securitization, it is unlikely that it will be possible in the next few years, he notes.

Czech Republic

July 16, 2011

In the Czech Republic will probably soon begin to decline in real estate prices. In some cases, they may fall by 15 per cent – writes with reference to the Czech edition of Business Prague. "The fall in prices in some segments of the market is likely actually, it's already happening – commented CEO Next Finance Market Shihtarzhova. – Lower prices, especially for apartments in prefabricated homes, which rose in price before this is mainly due to speculation. In the worst cases, such housing can become cheaper by 15 percent.

" As for new homes or luxury apartments, their price, according to Shihtarzhovoy, will only increase. And this is thanks to that the country has recently increased the difference between rich and poor. Wealthy residents have have more money to buy expensive real estate. From the fact that people will in future be put on more expensive housing and agree analyst Ale Mihl Raiffeisenbank. For new projects to be built in areas of good value will also increase. "People are increasingly looking for quality and are less willing to invest in housing panel", – says Mihl.

Price, in his opinion, would be strongly depend on the growth of Czech economy. In the event that happens a significant decline in economic growth, prices will fall. If he hold out for the 5 percent level, the real estate market is expected to stagnate. The mortgage crisis in the Czech Republic in the next five years, analysts do not predict. Possible risks in the property market yet are counted. In their study, the Czech National Bank cites that in the event of crisis, Prices may drop to 30 percent. Despite the fact that such a scenario is considered unlikely, the CNB is considering this option and, in case the worst, be prepared for an adequate response. Economists are of the opinion that the Czech Republic completed the "golden age" of development companies who have to live with the decrease in demand for new housing. "The economy is not growing at a pace as before, does not increase the number of people who can afford new housing. Rising mortgage rates also played a significant role. Those who wanted to buy a new home, most of them have already done "- describes the situation Shihtarzhova. Developers themselves on substantial reduction in demand for new housing until they think. For example, in one of the largest in this market, the company Finep, marked only a small decline in sales. Nevertheless, analysts agree that if the decrease real estate prices in the near future and will then only for apartments in prefabricated houses.
