Universal’s Okada Considers Partner for Philippine Casino (Update 4)
By Vinicy Chan and Kana Nishizawa - May 16, 2012 6:20 AM ET
Chairman Kazuo Okada, the Japanese billionaire in a legal dispute with Wynn Resorts Ltd. (WYNN), said his company is going ahead with plans for a casino resort in the Philippines and may tie up with a local partner.
Okada, whom Wynn Resorts has accused of making improper payments to gambling regulators in the Philippines, said in an interview yesterday that he hopes to fund about 70 percent to 80 percent of the Manila project with his company’s capital. While as much as 30 percent may be financed with debt, a partnership could reduce the need for a loan, he said.

Shares of major Chinese shipping companies plummeted amid fears of weakness in Europe, a critical export market. Hong Kong-listed China Shipping Container Lines Co. sank 5.2 percent. China COSCO Holdings Co. dropped 3.7 percent.
"The Chinese shipping sector is down sharply and continues to downtrend," said Linus Yip, a strategist at First Shanghai Securities in Hong Kong. "The market is not good right now, but I expect a technical rebound is coming."
World stocks dived Wednesday after a failure by Greece's political leaders to form a coalition government set the stage for new elections next month, keeping Europe's debt crisis center stage.

Asia stocks dive as Greek political crisis deepens
Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index HK:HSI -3.19% was among the region’s worst performers Wednesday, plunging 3.2%, with Sullivan citing the Hong Kong market’s relatively high liquidity as making it easy to sell out of. The drop marked the index’s worst percentage decline since Nov. 10, when it sank 5.2%.
Also suffering a loss in excess of 3%, South Korea’s Kospi KR:SEU -3.08% fell 3.1%.
Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 AU:XJO -2.36% wasn’t far behind with a 2.4% drop, as a sharp fall in commodity prices sent major mining names lower.
Japan’s Nikkei Stock Average JP:100000018 -1.12% dropped 1.1%, China’s Shanghai Composite Index CN:000001 -1.21% lost 1.2%, Taiwan’s Taiex XX:Y9999 -2.18% gave up 2.2% and India’s Sensex IN:1 -1.65% was down 1.9% in afternoon trading.
Tony Brennan, Citigroup head of Australia and New Zealand investment strategy, said Wednesday that the most likely case now involves Greece leaving the euro within the next 18 months. However, “policy action in Europe will help limit the fallout,” he said.
Barclays Capital analysts were more pessimistic about potential support measures, at least for the short term.
“To arrest market fears, proactive measures are needed. Unfortunately, they seem nowhere in sight. This suggests that risky assets are likely to trade erratically at best, with a bias to underperform.”
Among the riskier assets are cyclical stocks closely tied to global growth, such as miners, and the Greek news hit Australian-listed miners especially hard Wednesday.
BHP Billiton Ltd. AU:BHP -4.05% BHP -2.51% and Rio Tinto Ltd. AU:RIO -3.85% RIO -4.22% — the Australian mining sector’s two largest players — tumbled 4.1% and 3.9%, respectively. Uranium-focused miner Paladin Energy Ltd. AU:PDN -9.34% PALAF -8.69% dropped 9.3%.
Commodity players were also trading with sharp losses in Hong Kong, with Aluminum Corp. of China Ltd. HK:2600 -3.30% ACH -1.81% down 3.3%, PetroChina Ltd. HK:857 -3.80% PTR +1.65% lower by 3.8%, and China Coal Energy Co. HK:1898 -6.90% CCOZF +3.60% dropping 6.9%.
Banks likewise suffered in Hong Kong, with Bank of Communications Co. HK:3328 -3.85% BKFCF -14.38% down 3.9%, and China Citic Bank Corp. HK:998 -5.37% CHBJF -10.16% diving 5.4%.
However, the largest Japanese banks initially offered some support in Tokyo after the top three lenders all posted solid profits, managing to sidestep the euro-zone crisis. Read report on earnings for Japan’s top three banks.
Mizuho Financial Group Inc. JP:8411 +1.75% MFG +0.70% managed to hold on to some of its early gains in the afternoon, rising 1.8%, while Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group Inc. JP:8316 -0.34% SMFG -0.68% fell into negative territory but outperformed the market with a 0.3% decline.
Early advances for Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group Inc. JP:8306 -1.43% MTU -0.46% vaporized, with the bank’s shares dropping 1.4%.
Major Japanese exporters dragged on the Tokyo market as the European uncertainty outweighed a weaker yen, with the U.S. currency USDJPY +0.26% climbing back above the ¥80 level.
Among the decliners in Tokyo, Renesas Electronics Corp. JP:6723 -3.48% RNECY -12.45% retreated 3.5%, Toyota Motor Corp. JP:7203 -2.05% TM -1.76% gave up 2.1%, Fujitsu Ltd. JP:6702 -2.92% FJTSY +1.71% fell 2.9%, and Bridgestone Corp. JP:5108 -2.00% BRDCF -0.86% lost 2%.
In Hong Kong, Europe-exposed apparel firm Esprit Holdings Ltd. HK:330 -5.54% ESHDF -14.93% fell 5.5%, while Chinese computer major Lenovo Group Ltd. HK:992 -4.53% LNVGF -0.50% dropped 4.5%.
Back in Australia, logistics firm Toll Holdings Ltd. AU:TOL -15.23% THKUF -1.06% plunged 15.2% after warning on its underlying earnings for the current fiscal year. Read more on Toll’s warning.

DISCLAIMER:
1. DO THE MATH!!! - Before placing any trade, do the math. Where is the trigger? Where is the proper stop based on the chart setup? How many shares should I buy? This is easy to figure out. You never want to lose more than 1% of your trading account balance on any given trade. So, if you have a $30,000 account, your maximum acceptable loss on any given trade should be $300. If the stop is .20 cents below the entry price (again, based on the chart setup), then you should not buy more than 1500 shares (for the purpose of this lesson I have left commissions out of the equation for simplicity).
2. PAY YOURSELF!!! - Once you have a small profit (I use a dime as a rough personal guideline) sell part of your position and move your stop to breakeven on the rest. You will have very few losing trades if you do this, and the losses you do have will be small.
3. STOP TRADING!!! - What do I mean by this? If you hit your daily goal (everyone should have one and make it realistic) stop trading. Afternoons are tougher to trade than mornings anyway, so take the money and run....tomorrow is another day.
4. STOP TRADING!!! - Didn't we go over this already? Well, this one has another meaning. If you lose 1/2 the amount of your daily goal, stop trading and come back tomorrow. For instance, if your goal is to make $500 a day, and you are down $250 on the day, quit for the day. This is the best way to avoid falling into a 'trading death spiral'.
