It is the month May again, but this proved to be a different May for the index. STI ended higher this month ( or at least till today higher compared to last month), despite negative predictions from some analyst that the market needed a correction. As at today, STI closed at 3,219.42, up 1.39% from last month-end.
Unfortunate for me, my portfolio did not do as well as the index. It's value dropped 0.55% from end of April.
I was very busy with my work in May and had very little time to monitor my investment portfolio. I did not do any trade in May at all, but received some shares from Fraser Commercial Trust and Keppel Reit.
May is the "Dividend Month" for investors. My total "passive income" this month amounts to S$25,175. This comes from shares, UT and bonds.

Hi Sanye,
You still have full confidence in SPH? Ever considering lightening on it by a bit?
That's the question I am asking myself too and would like your hear your view.
:)
Hi K,
At the moment I am not unloading SPH. This is just my opinion and not necessarily correct. Go ahead to do whatever you think is best for you. Good luck.
hi Sanye
do you think that comfortdelgro price is rather attractive now, at $2.40? will you consider adding more?
Hi Paul,
Wah, both of us a bit of "心有灵犀“! I was thinking of Comfortdelgro just this morning and I read your comment.
Comfortdelgro price has come down from around $3 and it does look attractive at the current level. I just have a little concern if it can fend off the disruption from Uber and Grab in its taxi business. At the moment ComfortDelgro is already one of my top holding, I won't be adding too much on it.
Hi Sanye
Just wondering if you would be interested to become an affiliate blogger to my online REITs udemy reits course.
The link is at,

It's quite sell-able as you can see. Willing to do a 50:50 split in whatever profits. Looking forward to your reply.
Regards

Hi Sanye,
Can share with us why do you choose to buy and keep Ausnet?
Regards,
Jason
Hi Jason,
I worked in a company that was affiliated to SP Group. Years ago SP was a major shareholder of Ausnet and the staff were given option to buy Ausnet shares. I did not take up the option as I felt The offered price was too high (S$1.50). During the GFC in 2008-2009 Ausnet's price plunged to $0.8X and I found that the dividend yield became very attractive. That when I started investing in Ausnet. Since then it has been in my portfolio.
Ausnet is in a regulated business in Australia and its dividend yield has been quite stable. Its price has climb above its IPO price and the yield compressed to about 4%. To me its still a good dividend stock to keep.
Hi Chlorophyll Inc,
You have an excellent blog and course there, but I don't think I am qualified to be an instructor of affiliate blogger.
Thanks for the invitation though.
