Failure to panic in a crash

Failure to panic in a crash is more troublesome. Tech stock investorswho did not get out in April 2000 know these feelings well. Holding on through a crash will lead to depression and a sense of inferiority. Longer bear markets lead to confusion, free-floating fear, resentments, and regrets. Those who failed to panic in 1966, 1970, and 1974 suffered until the 1980s bull market became fully established in 1985. Investors who hold on during long bear markets feel helpless, unable to stay in the market and sit with the pain of loss, yet unable to get out for fear of missing a great rise in prices. These emotions may last many years.

Key points of financial essentials

‘Property’ is a term used to describe a legal real property interest in real estate. In economic terms a property can have a value-in-use and a value-inexchange, the latter is an estimate of exchange price.

A property valuation is the process of forming an opinion of value-inexchange under certain assumptions and a market valuation requires those assumptions to establish an open market scenario.

Valuations are required in connection with many activities, chiefly development appraisal, transfer of ownership, monitoring of property investment performance, reporting the value of property assets held by companies, loan security, tax matters and insurance risk assessment.

The diversity of property makes valuation a difficult task, no two properties are ever the same, yet valuation relies on the comparison of properties to give an indication of value. To do this the valuer must be aware of, and be able to quantify, differences in type, location, legal interest, quality and the state of the market.

Countries at risk of a financial crisis

The following types of countries are most likely to be at risk (this is a selection of indicators):

  • Countries with significant exports to crisis affected countries such as the USA and EU countries (either directly or indirectly). Mexico is a good example;
  • Countries exporting products whose prices are affected or products with high income elasticities. Zambia would eventually be hit by lower copper prices, and the tourism sector in Caribbean and African countries will be hit;
  • Countries dependent on remittances. With fewer bonuses, Indian workers in the city of London, for example, will have less to remit. There will be fewer migrants coming into the UK and other developed countries, where attitudes might harden and job opportunities become more scarce;
  • Countries heavily dependent on FDI, portfolio and DFI finance to address their current account problems (e.g. South Africa cannot afford to reduce its interest rate, and it has already missed some important FDI deals);
  • Countries with sophisticated stock markets and banking sectors with weakly regulated markets for securities;
  • Countries with a high current account deficit with pressures on exchange rates and inflation rates. South Africa cannot afford to reduce interest rates as it needs to attract investment to address its current account deficit. India has seen a devaluation as well as high inflation. Import values in other countries have already weakened the current account;
  • Countries with high government deficits. For example, India has a weak fiscal position which means that they cannot put schemes in place;
  • Countries dependent on aid.
