Yup, that’s the itinerary of my upcoming grand tour of Europe, lasting one month starting from 12 May. During this time, i won’t be able to update the daily SOR page daily, apologies for that. I’ll be posting about anything interesting i come across during the trip, so stay tuned.
By the way, check out travellerspoint if you’re interested in plotting your own itinerary map.
SOR 3m has jumped from 0.178 to 0.218. Interest rates are widely expected to be going up, so in that sense this is nothing alarming. Lets see if SOR 3m and SIBOR 3m will cross path again. The last time this happened was almost 2 years ago.
SOR 3-months has just fallen from 0.25% to 0.23% over the last 3 trading days as the Singapore Dollar (vs USD) rises from 1.2885 to 1.27966 over the same period.
Upgraded my Samsung Galaxy S to the highly anticipated Froyo (i.e. Android 2.2) firmware more than a week ago. Main impression: the phone does seem more responsive. Previously (i.e. when running Android 2.1 aka Eclair), the phone is often in a state where the CPU is fully utilized and is unable to respond for no less than 10 seconds. With Froyo, there seems to be a huge improvement in task management, which is evident also from the improved responsiveness even when the phone is installing a new app (which used to stall the phone completely).
Some statistics: my Home Loan Rates page attracts over 170 visitors a month and ranks as the 7th top content on my site. The last update i have done for the page was back in February 2010. I figure it’s high time i provided up-to-date data. Go ahead and check out the new chart!
