I believe that the effect of Brexit is not over, but will unfold slowly in the next few months. Objectively I don't think it will lead to another GFC, though there may be some negative impact.
As at today, STI has recovered all the lost ground from last Friday and Monday. the index closed at 2,840.93, up 49.87points, or 1.79% from last month. My portfolio did not perform as well. Its value only rose 0.62% from a month ago.
Due to my busy schedule this month, I did not do much trade. I bought some SPH shares when the price dipped. I received some shares from DBS and OCBC via scrip dividend scheme. Total fund invested was S$4,900.00.
On the dividend side, total passive income this month was S$10,018.59 from shares and UT (mainly from shares).
Going forward, I will continue to be cautious in the investment. I may consider to shift some of the UT's to bond fund, which are more defensive in uncertain market. Meanwhile I will continue to build up my war chest and waiting for good opportunities to invest.

you are receiving dividend income on a monthly basis ? which type of shares pay dividends on a monthly basis ? Any examples ?
No, no share pays dividend on monthly basis. I have a portfolio consists of many shares. As a whole, I receive dividend from my portfolio every month, although not in equal amount.
Some unit trust do pay dividend monthly, that is because UT invests in a portfolio of shares or bonds also.
With a dividend of $10000 a month, your investments would be a minimum of $3M at a dividend rate of 4%.
How long did you have to invest to get such a payout?
Many years. I am approaching retirement age.
Also, the power of compounding had come into your portfolio. Great work. Cheers.
Hi Arthur,
