30 September 2008

The month of September looked bad for my portfolio. The global equity crisis looked as if there is no end to it. Big banks collapse, AIG almost went bankrupt, US Congress voted against the bailout plan.... I am only glad that September is finally over.

My portfolio took a bitting in this month. Portfolio value dropped by S$63,000(!), depite fresh cash injection of S$26,000. (that means total loss S$90,000).

I added Pac Andes and Tiong Woon to my portfolio this month, topped up Sembcorp, Ausnet, Fibrechem, Courage marine, and B&B, all dropped to their new lows. I also received S$2,844 in cash dividend.

Below are the top 30 holding as at 30 September:

2. SPH
3. OCBC Bk
4. ST Engineering
5. Semb Corp
6. SP AusNet

The big reshuffle of the top 30 holdings reflects the volatility of the market. Of course it is also partly due to new top up of some counters.

Look forward to a better Q42008.

31 July 2008

Market continues to be plagued by bad news from US. The end of the volatility is still not in sight. Market indices went up and down this month, and by the end of the month my portfolio lost about S$10,000 in value.

As at 31 July 5:00pm, portfolio value reduced by S$4,102, despite injection of S$5,833. Fresh fund was injected to buy ST Engineering when it dropped to S$2.72. Script dividend from ChinaFlexP was treated like new buy.

I only received S$260 in cash dividend this month. Below are the top 30 counters:

1. ComfortDelGro
2. CoscoCorp
3. OCBC Bk

ChinaFlexP and SAT svcs dropped off the list after post Ex div price drop. Ferrochina and KS Energy replaces them due to price surge in the last week.
