DAILY REVIEW & OUTLOOK, for TD September 22, 2010 Wednesday
PSEI: 4,087.96, +34.45 pts., +0.85% ; Total Volume: 5.398B; Total Value: php7.996B Adv: 85 Dec: 73 Unch: 25

OUTLOOK: September 22, 2010_Wednesday

Monthly, weekly and daily momentum indicators keeps the market trading at relatively
high levels – translating to overbought conditions. However, this has not dampened
trades which continues to push the index to new highs after each session. The correction-
wait has been indeterminately extended. Investors have become “impatient”, immediately
buying into minimal dips or retreats in the index.

We are raising immediate support to the 3,950-70 range while continuing to keep interim
resistance at the 4,100-mark. Although this level was broken in yesterday's trades,
increased aggressiveness among profit-bookers pulled the measure below this line as the
final bell sounded. Earlier, we had raised our year-end index level projection to 4,380 – a
fourth adjustment to our target.

Anticipations of continuing expansion of listed firms' bottom-lines for the final semester of
the current year, and the bright prospects being drawn for next year, will keep investor
interest in equities heightened. Thus far, we don't see any near-term shifts in the
underlying fundamentals, and even to a certain extent, the technicals, to push the panic
button and call a reversal of present optimistic trends.

DAILY WRAP: September 21, 2010_Tuesday

The market gave up half of its early gains but still managed to reset the all-time high to
4,087.96, adding 34.45 points or 0.85% to the previous day's record close. The Index
rose through the first hour of the session before profit-takers stepped in to cap the
advance at 71.99 points.

Only the Mining & Oil sector, which has risen by 31.14% over the last 12 sessions, (15 of
the last 16) slipped. Aggregate value turnover for the group crossed the php1.0 billion
mark for the first time since June 24, 2010.

A positive budget surplus for the month of August could have contributed to the
extended optimism. The Aquino administration's “wise spending” policy resulted in a
php1.3 billion surplus. While some budget experts have cast doubt on the data, given
the collection shortfall of the BIR and Customs Bureau, it nevertheless provides an
encouraging prospect of containing the deficit to within the programmed ceiling.

Since breaking out of the 3,620-30 resistance band, the index has surged by at least 12.62% over the last two weeks. This brings the year-to-date return
to 33,91%, with September-to-date at 14.6%, shaping out to be the biggest month-on-month gain since the 14.9% of July 2009.
