PM Ranil at Davos ( there were many investors willing to invest in SL including Richard Branson )
Don't think international investors do work like we buy items from Sunday market.
They need Currency stability (Government know they need to create this ), political stability ( we now have ) etc. for their investments.
President visits Germany. ( first president who was invited after 43 years ) A trade and investment delegation has gone with president and they will discuss with German investors for opportunities & Joint ventures in SL. Germany is the most strongest country economically in Europe. Also a delegation from Germany will visit to SL in May 2016. German president also has told they will help SL.
UK investments - A UK investment leader told we must reduce corruption and increase transparency to boost investments. They will move SL to a more transparent and corruption free nation then they will invest.
Volkswagen wanted to start a plant here but failed (they had problems on emissions in vehicles, and now have to pay fines also.) The important part here is they wanted to invest in SL.
New Zealand Prime Minister will visit SL next week to grow commercial and political ties.
Our president will visit Austria after Germany also to promote opportunities in SL.
Now think why SL is accepted by the world and after such investments what will happen to our economy. ( Investments = new jobs = country grows )
2.) World economy
How many people spread news about world markets falling !!! Think why now you don't hear news about world economy. Because these big people don't want to tell you.
World markets were positive for the last weeks. US markets are good now. China markets stable now. For example today all major markets Up. Yesterday (or Tuesday ) Japan market went up by more than 1000 points in one day.
3.) Crude oil
Iran, Russia and Saudi Arabia are discussing for a production cut in oil. This is the reason why crude oil went up. So as crude oil markets stabilise and slowly go up during end of 2016, world markets will not crash.
4.) SL T-Bills
91 day T-bills are rising ( at a two year high ) this is negative. But what many people don't see is Government had rejected all bids for 182 day and 364 day. Why they rejected 182&364 bids ?
The reason is because government know they will get money ( sometimes foreign inflows) in the future.
5.) Today's market CSE
Cash Map now is 80 %. Today and this week turnover about 500 Mn in red markets. So someone is buying. Also foreign buyers coming into JKH and banks at these levels. We have good support at 6150, so don't talk about 6000 or 5800 even before we cross 6200. Selling pressure is reducing, yesterday there was some forced selling.
Many research analysts from broker firms don't talk about the positive now, but later when all the things I told here will happen, after that these analysts will tell you positive news.
But then market will have moved again.
So invest now on strong companies at discount prices. Think about the long term view.
Goodluck
