Short Stops - #30: No one can predict the market ... but we're going to try anyway.

Published: Dec. 22, 2018, 4:27 p.m.

Hosted by Edmund Lee, President & CEO of the Caylum Trading Institute, Short Stops is your weekly stock market update featuring the top trading news, tips and stock picks in Metro Manila and around the world. "A prediction about the direction of the stock market tells you nothing about where stocks are headed, but a whole lot about the person doing the predicting." - Warren Buffett For almost 29 episodes, everyone who has contributed to Short Stops has done their best to provide a professional, educated and informed analysis on what we believe are the potential outcomes of stocks and opportunities available in the market for our audiences. So to commemorate our last episode for 2018 and our 30th one to date, Caylum is going chill, relax and do something a little different this time around. Eleanore Lee-Teo is pulling the reigns on this fun mix of familiar candidates to host a friendly competition amongst the team members. With only a few hours to prepare, every contestant that you will hear on this podcast will be tasked to answer the same question: "What do you predict will happen in 2019?" All answers were required to be related to stocks, the economy or business and we are putting their responses to the record so that we can review the tape back in December of 2019 to find out if any of them actually came true. A profound explanation was necessary to validate their predictions and the result is a pool of sometimes-rational and sometimes-outrageous ideas on this show. DISCLAIMER: These should not be considered stock tips or recommendations of any sort. While all the information and facts presented are true, the team was allowed to inject their own personal bias into their opinions which is what most people who claim they can predict the stock market actually do. This is our way of celebrating 2018 despite the market giving us few reasons to rejoice so hopefully we can bring some joy and cheer to our listeners with this one.
