Portfolio Update: April 2017

April seems like a pretty short month.

Same as the past month, there is no addition of shares to the portfolio.

Some of the stocks rose, while some fell. However, at the end of the month, the portfolio is still able to eke out a 0.76% gain.

Nothing bad, but nothing fantastic either. Below is the updates of the portfolio. Overall, it seems like the portfolio is losing steam. Perhaps it is time to get a quick rest so as to let the bull runs a little further.

I'll be tracking the STI ETF performance from next month onward, so as to compare it with the portfolio performance.

Portfolio Update: March 2017

I know. I have missed out the update for February 2017.

I missed out knowingly, because there is really nothing much to update for my portfolio. I did not do any transaction at all. Thus, no blog post on portfolio update. Bad AK! Bad AK!

Wait... what has it got to do with AK? AK is my idol among all the financial bloggers and if you don't know who is AK, you must be living in a world of your own or new to financial blogs. AK's blog is singaporeanstocksinvestor.blogspot.sg


Anyway, below is my portfolio update for March.

As it turns out, I did not do any transaction in March as well.

Since the last update for the month of January, the portfolio has grown about 4% or 5k without me doing anything. As the market slowly increases, I am silently growing my warchest so as to take advantage of any market dip that may happen in the future. I have just opened an UOB One Account last week. With this account, I hope that my warchest can at least earn a decent interest while I wait...

Portfolio Update - Jan 2017

Happy Lunar New Year.

Below is my portfolio update for the month of January 2017.

Basically, I did nothing much in January, except being forced to accept an unbelievable offer of $0.25 for Vard Holdings, as the offer has turned unconditional. My purchase price was $1.255, and this means my loss in this counter is a whooping 80.08%. What a lucky number. This is by far my worst counter in my entire portfolio and investing history.

Nevertheless, the portfolio did turn up a +3.6% month-on-month, which I think is still not too bad, though it still did not beat the STI Index ETF. Hope that the rest of the year would turn out better.

Gong Xi Fa Cai!

Basically, there is not much changes to the portfolio, except that I have bought another 2000 M1 shares @ S$1.94. Total dividend income is S$15,088 for the entire year (inclusive of the special distributions from Saizen Reit and NeraTel). If exclude these two, dividend income is S$7,657.


In reflection, it was a bad year for the portfolio. The portfolio is unable to beat the index, and also some of the buys turned out to be bad (e.g. NeraTel, no thanks to The Fifth Person). I will be more prudent in my stocks purchase this year by analyzing each potential buy. Hope that Year 2017 will be a better year for the portfolio.
