Portfolio Update Jun 2021

Time flies. Half the year of 2021 has passed. We have come to end of June 2021 and it is time to review my various investment portfolios.

My SGX Income Portfolio value increases to $263k compared to $259.4k in end May 2021. Sembcorp Marine share price has plunged almost 40% after announcing its rights issue plan and potential merger with Keppel O&M. As it is only a small constituent of my portfolio, its plunge has not much impact. Aims Apac Reit has slowly but steadily crawled up to its fair value to prove my faith and patience right. I have also participated in the preferential offering of Mapletree Industrial Trust by subscribing to 3,000 shares but only managed to get 1,500 shares.

I nibbled some stocks to add into my new US Growth Portfolio. I learn to collect premiums by selling put options while waiting to collect decent companies at fair prices. I injected $3.2k of dividends into this portfolio and it has grown astonishingly to $4k (USD$3k) in less than a month.

For my SRS portfolio, I have added Keppel DC Trust to align with my conviction of riding on the waves of technology and cloud computing for the long-term future.

Moving forward, a new round of quarterly and half yearly reporting for the Reits and companies will commence soon and I look forward to a new round of dividends as passive income. I will continue to build up my US growth portfolio too. This Covid pandemic will eventually become an endemic as vaccination rate in Singapore goes up. Eventually, this Covid pandemic will become another historic event in the history of mankind. I am sure the borders will open up gradually, the global economies will recover and life will only get better than worse for humans. Huat ah!
