Portfolio Update 30 April 2019

With the hope that Sino-US trade negotiation was heading towards some kind of agreement, the equity market performed well in the month of April. STI rose with the global market. At the end of April, STI rose 196 points, or 6.14% from a month ago.

My portfolio however, did not perform as well as the index. Compared to last month, its value increased only 3.9%.

I received some Keppel Infrastructure Trust shares from subscription on right issues. I also applied for excess right and got some allotment.

Dividend received in April is low as usual. With the sales of M1 shares it went even lower this year. Minus the interest payment, passive income in April was S$2,524.

I bought some Fraser bond this month, using the proceed from the sales of Oxley bonds last month, and cash accumulated from dividend income. This will increase dividend income in six month.
