(Image credit: Paramount Pictures; Brave Heart; Be Mel Gibson, not Meow Gibson) The market, as you know, is going through some heavy corrections. I have warned of the unwinding of Yen carry-trades having a profound impact on the market over the past year. I am not here to brag or rub it in at those who have lost money in the stock market.

I have no idea if this correction might turned out to be the start of a new bear market. I always believe opportunities only wait for people that are well-prepared.

When the market gets sold off, index stocks are the first to get hit but also the first to recover. I am focusing only on the bluest blue chip of STI. These are the following steps to prepare myself for any opportunit...

The Nasdaq is undergoing some heavy corrections given its fast ascension in the first 6 months of the yea...
