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:

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.
