Unit Trust portfolio

My UT portfolio had an average growth of 15.39% in the year 2007. Best performer was FS Global resource fund which grew 45.9%. HSBC BRIC fund, Schroder BRIC Fund Aberdeen China Opportunity Fund, LC China Growth Fund, and UOB Gold and General fund all return more than 30%. LC Japan Growth Fund was the poorest performing fund with a -12.61%, followed by Henderson AP Property Equity Fund with -0.93% and Infinity Global Index Fund with 0.97%.

30 November 2007

The stock market experienced a very volatile month in November. Market corrected, due to sub-prime woe inspired fear. Market confidence was shaken. The penny stock took the most beating. The re-bound at month end only saw some blue chips recovering back some lost ground. Penny stocks still lack behind (usual).

The portfolio dropped in tendem with the market. Compared with 31 Oct, portfolio value of S$552,986 represents a decrease of $27,500, despite an injection of S$24,150 to buy new stock. subscribe right share and top-up beaten down stocks. So effectively, porfolio value decreased by $51,650 in this month. Let's hope that the market sentiment improve in the month of December and ride on the Year-end rally.

This month, I received a totall of S$5,260.50 of dividend, mainly from Hiap Moh.
