The year 2012 started with most of the analysts predicting that the economy would not do well and the market continue its downtrend. But the market did very well in January. Though the European crisis still has not see its end, some positive news from US lifted the market. STI rose 260 points (almost 10%) in the month to end above 2906. My portfolio rose slightly less, only 7.5% this month.
I did not do very much in share market this month. That was because I use some cash to buy into 2 bond fund and participated in the CMA Bond IPO. These actions drained my cash position so I did not buy any share this month. I received S$365 in dividend this month.
going forward, I will focus on blue chip with good dividend payout and REITs that are performing well.
Below are the top 30 holdings as at 31 Jan 2012. O&G and Shipping shares rose, Cosco came back to the list again and Sembmarine rose a few position.

30 December 2011
December has been a quiet month for stock market as many are on holiday. the usual Christmas rally didn't happen, and ST index dropped another 2% in the month to end at 2646. My portfolio value dropped 1.9% in the same period, almost in line with STI.
The Straits Time said on weekend that the stock market fell 17% for the whole year of 2011. My portfolio did slightly better, cushioned by the dividend income.
I did not do much in the month. I Topped up SGX and AscendasReit towards the end of the month when their prices dropped. I received S$6,700 of dividend this month. Total dividend received exceeded my target of S$50K, but since the porfolio value dropped more than that, the net return was still negative.
Below are the top 30 holdings. Not much changes occur, except AscendasReit replace Cosco, due to new buy-in.
