Coincidental Encounter
That day at that very interesting seminar, met someone even more interesting.
He came and sat down beside me in the seminar and he said I looked familiar. I also said he looked familiar but cannot recall who he is.
Found out later he went to Henry Park Primary, then Fairfield Methodist, and we are of same age!
Coincidentally he also used to stay at Clementi, a few blocks away from my old house, and now he is staying at Jurong West St 41 Block 404 with parents, married
He talked about the old basketball court at Clementi and I told him the space is taken over by Hospice
What a super coincidence!
There are many colourful coincidences we have yet to experience in life!
By the way, he is an ML guy! An investment analyst!
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke’s speech before Congress, in which he affirmed the Fed’s belief that economic growth will slow in 2008 and into 2009, and that Congress should help the efforts by adopting a temporary fiscal stimulus plan stirred those sidelined into further selling. The impression was that government stimulus was needed soon, and the President Bush is now expected to announce his proposed package later today.
This came after news of Merrill Lynch's expected heavy 4th Quarter loss of some US$10 billion on top of a US$11.5 billion write-down for mortgage related transactions. The stock fell 10.2 percent and was a drag on the overall financial sector.
