Guess what all stock markets are subject to speculation and manipulation. Thailand has no corner on such practices.

Mrsdonesh is correct. Buy land. But whatever you do, don't keep your savings in the bank because it isn't the stock market that is going up. It is the future value of paper money that is going down.

The share market is based on speculation. Its gambling, always was always will be. The fault is basing an economy on horse racing. Its not science no matter what any one thinks. Look at history if you need proof.
