28 February 2009

Just come back from business trip. Updated this blog a bit late.

Portfolio performed badly in February, in line with the deepening global financial crisis. As compared to January, portfolio value reduced by S$13,600, depite injecting S$18,000 of fresh fund.

I subsribed to DBS right issue and got 500 excess right shares. Took the opportunity to top up some counters, and bought Sembmarine and KepCorp. Hiap Moh and SFI disappeared from the portfolio, both due to unconditional cash offer. Sad, as they were both my good defend stock with very good dividend payout. The only consolation is both were sold above my cost.

DBS and F&N entered the top 10 listing due to new shares buy-in. The top 30 counters:

1. ComfortDelGro
2. SPH
3. Semb Corp
4. ST Engineering
5. OCBC Bk
6. DBS
7. SP AusNet
8. F & N
9. S I A
10. SingTel
11. CoscoCorp
12. Raffles Edu
13. SembMar
14. SAT Svcs
15. FrasersCT
16. Sp Ship
17. KS Energy
18. Celestial
19. SPC
20. Cambridge
21. FraserComm
22. MacqIntInfra
23. CitySpring
24. CapitaComm
25. Kep Corp
26. ASL Marine
27. Aztech
28. MIDAS
29. MetroHldg
30. PanUnited

I received S$755 cash dividend this month.
