Equity market seemed to be quiet this month, or at least the local market was. It was reported that trading volume had been very thin. The Greece election result gave the market a boost as the risk of Greece exiting Euro Zone is averted for the moment. Then Cyprus applied for bailout and showed the world that Eurozone crisis is far from over. Market sentiment seemed to say that things are not likely to get better in the next few months.
STI recovered somewhat in thin trading volume. To me it looked more like window dressing activities as the 2nd quarter comes to the end. I don't think the index will continue to climb in the next few months. As at today, STI closed at 2880, up by 105.91 points, or 3.82% compared to last month end. My portfolio value went up by 3.77%, so in line with the market.
This month, I participated in script dividend scheme from AimsampIreit, Cambridge Industrial Reit, DBS, and rights issue by SP Ausnet. I also bought Sp Ship shares. I was given Bonus shares from Transpac. I received a total of S$4,239 in dividend. This, together with the dividend from May, was reinvested.
Going forward, my strategy of investing for yield will not change. I will continue to invest in quality companies that pay good dividend.
