stocks

decline lead by banks (of course sila ung di binabayaran pag walang income mga nangutang)

Hay naku mga lawmakers natin, sa kakahanap ng butas sa ABS-CBN nababalingan tuloy SPV at FIST laws.

Madali lang kasi magsalit in hindsight, with the benefit of looking in the past. But during times of crisis, sometimes the best decision is not the perfect decision.

dalhin ko dito

Nov 2, Dec 24 and Dec 31 are now special, working days!

para sa economy yan

para maka bawi

i've heard foreigners complain that PH has too many holidays

like those foreign owned manufacturing plants in special economic zones (exporters)

dahil sa dami ng holiday nadedelay ang production / delivery nila

siguro narinig niyo narin ang ganyan complaint

sana huwag puro kneejerk reaction... dahil galit sa gobyerno

Wr do have too.many holidays indeed. Pinakamarami ata sa SEA. Isa pa yan sa ayaw ng investor's.

Not just PDuts but past President's din may mali dyan. We should limit holiday's na dapat.

If your talking about holiday just look at china their chinese new year equates to 1 or maybe 2 weeks worth of vacation and here we only have 1 day vacation during chinese new year.

We have 14 official holidays kasi tapos ilang pang local holidays (City foundation day for example) and special non-working holidays with 30% salary or wage increase around 20-22 days yan.

Pero interesingly Malaysia 50 holidays pero investor friendly sila, most probably other factors din talaga. Pero I for one don't want to add another official holiday. Unless super important event.

Pilipinas are you ready for higher prices?



if you're a manufacturer, you're seeing your input cost rise

if you're an importer, your suppliers are raising prices

what do you do?

of course you can raise prices

but can you do that without losing customers?

do your customers have financial capacity to absorb higher prices?

-

Other economies are recovering

their consumers can absorb higher prices



how about you Philippines?

Totoo!

Stagflation continues...

[uls]

Stagflation continues...

normally kasi when your economy is weak you'd have downward price pressure (disinflation / deflation)

when consumer demand is weak, mahina ang sales ng businesses so they'll lower prices para magkaroon ng benta

that's deflationary... it's good for consumers but bad coz the economy as a whole coz it means less money going around

when businesses lower prices they see profit margin drop or break even or even lose money

di magtatagal they'll lay off workers and close

in a deflationary environment, consumers may even hold back spending waiting for prices to fall further

-

PERO ITONG NANGYAYARI SA PINAS IBA

mahina ang economy but prices are rising

kaya STAGFLATION

stagnant economy with rising prices
