Lock the interest rate of your house loan

Last week we saw some positive figures in the US which saw the Dow jumped during the Friday closing. We should see some big jump in the stock markets here in Asia. The jobless reports in the US has shown some decline and it begin to show that there are some recoveries in the job sector and some positive signs that the economy is recovering.

Soon we will see some central banks will start to increase their interest rate and borrowings will not be that cheap anymore. During the time of low interest rate as we are now, we should lock the current interest rate with the banks so that we can continue to enjoy a lower rate even when the bank decides to increase their base rate. These are some of the opportunities that only comes when there is a big economic recession like the one we just had.

It is the time when we can buy our dream home and also at a discount compare to what they were 2 or 3 years ago and before the price of the house increase any further, it is wise for us to secure 1 0r 2 as an investment as we can make some simple profit in a few years time.

It is time for us to lock the interest rate. My answer is definitely yes although many will argue that the situation is not yet over and there are more some bad news coming from the US which could well mean the second wave of this recession. I may not be able to predict what will happen in th future but for now we can expect the recovery is starting to take effect and governments from various countries all have taken steps to curb the situation and will definitely do all measures to prevent the situation from getting any worse or any kind of second wave recession.

The regional markets in the Far East like Japan and Hong Kong all have shown positive signs lately. We will see the recovery in the region will be very fast and it will once again becoming the growing region for the next 1 or 2 years. Only at a later stage we will see fully recovery in the US and European countries which I would say in 2 years from now.

Something about investment

About a year ago people were talking about the recession and the world economic crisis. But time flies and and now we are talkig about the recoveries and where to invest for us to take advantage during this recovery period. Investment is very good and I think that everyone should learn how to invest. The most common kind of investment is in the equity fund or the stock market. A few years ago we saw many people in the US or in China became rich overnight because of the run in the Dow Jones as well as other regional market.

For those who are not really familiar with investment, it is better that you start to learn a bit, by reading some investment books or attend some investment talk by banks or some investment house. Investment is not so difficult if we can control ourselves. Many could still remember the days of the dotcom bubble where thousands of millionaires were created and when it burst out, there were thousands too left with millions of debts. As a results out financial system failed too as what we saw to the Citigroup or the AIG.

Whenever there is a downfall, there is sure going to be some kind of recovery and the good news is we are in the recovery period and we are in a perfect time for us to plan our investment. It is expected that the fastest recovery and growing region in the next few months will be China. We can see from the recent market movement that China stock has been increasing steadily and it is still expected to go furthermore. Economy in China is boosted by the economic stimulus package by the Chinese government and thus there will be some big positive impact to the domestic market in China.

That will of course will give a big positive regional markets like Japan and Southeast Asia as China is such a big market. Situation in the US is still left unknown for a while and we can expect some good signs as early as next year. But we can be very sure that the recovery is not really too far ahead.

I will cover up more topics on investment in my next post and to follow up with the market trends and developments in the region.
