9. Trading Strategy, Expected Profit, Risk Management and Market Analysis. Trading Strategy The strategy is the implementation of Portfolio Theory, means to diverse the investment funds. It also covers diversification on transaction time : short-term trading, middle-term trading, long-term trading, or the combination among the three to minimize risk. Expected Profit Expected Profit is one way to maximize profit from trading. It is based on exchange rate expectation, counter risk and investment value in the future compared with potential profit. Particularly in Hang Seng market is vary from 250 up to 2000 points per annual day. Risk Management Stock exchange market is very unpredictable. It can change within hours, minutes even seconds. A wise trader must equipped with a method to minimize any possible risk that may occur. And risk management is a must have tool to do that. Risk Management is a strategy to manage risk and limit it by putting a stop order. Stop order helps traders to control the risk from losing the entire margin. I put a stop order 50 points as an insurance of the profit. When there is a correction on the market, the gains will be protected by advance trailing stop.
12. Firm Strategy, Structure and Rivalry Long term corporate vision is a determinant of success Management ‘ideology’ and structure of the firm can either help or hurt you Presence of domestic rivalry improves a company’s competitiveness 4-9
13. FDI Based Explanations: Dunning’s Eclectic Paradigm Three conditions determine whether or not a company will internalize via FDI: Ownership-specific advantages – knowledge, skills, capabilities, relationships, or physical assets that form the basis for the firm’s competitive advantage Location-specific advantages – advantages associated with the country in which the MNE is invested, including natural resources, skilled or low cost labor, and inexpensive capital Internalization advantages – control derived from internalizing foreign-based manufacturing, distribution, or other value chain activities 10
14. Two Types of International Collaborative Ventures Equity-based joint ventures result in the formation of a new legal entity. In contrast to the wholly-owned FDI, the firm collaborates with local partner(s) to reduce risk and commitment of capital. Project-based alliances do not require equity commitment from the partners but simply a willingness to cooperate in R&D, manufacturing, design, or any other value-adding activity. Since project-based alliances have a narrowly defined scope of activities and timeline, they provide greater flexibility to the firm than equity-based ventures. 11
