Wolfpack 2,166 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 honestly, I never know...I have heard the dollar makes a gain after elections...I have not researched how factual that is... Link to post Share on other sites
Brucewayne 3,803 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I have been saying for over a year that we would see P44 to the Dollar by the end of this year and possibly P50 by March of next year. Most foreign investments are already spent, hence the slow down of the condo building racket and investors have less confidence in the Peso than to hold them over the USD which has been slowly, but steadily growing stronger over the last several years. P.S. My stock broker and I couldn't be happier than we are right now. Link to post Share on other sites

Brucewayne 3,803 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I sincerely hope so... I am wanting to buy property at a fair price and will not take any money out of the market if the Peso doesn't go up and property prices don't go down. I have been researching this hard since 2008 and I also hope (feel) that I am right. I have had a few scares, but things are going in the direction I have predicted so far. Nobody can see the future, but everything points to a bit of a meltdown in the Philippines since no real attempt to provide work for those in lower income brackets have come about. Most economies depend on everyone who can possibly work to do so, but not so here. Latest check I made shows 60% are underpaid and 27% are below the ridiculously low poverty level of P60 per day or less. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Slow growth is better than a fast spurt for the most part because anything that jumps fast is normally temporary and will usually fall just as fast. Steady, but sure wins the race, fast spurts wear you out too fast. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
