In what had been one of the worst month in the global markets in recent times, the STI dipped below 3000 points briefly during the month before closing strongly at 3018 points. But still, the closing level is much lower than last month. Technology related stocks were among the biggest losers, especially those with exposure to China manufacturing plants. The usual concerns of interest rate, trade tensions and the falling US markets contributed to our market weakness.
For this month, I have attended the following AGMs/EGMs/briefing - Chuan Hup, CapitaLand Mall Trust, Spindex and Tai Sin.
For my top 30 holdings, Wheelock Properties dropped out of the list after it had been delisted from SGX following the close of their buyout offer by its controlling shareholder. I had subsequently executed my Sales Right after delisting. Best World did well after some buying from institutional investors ahead of their 3Q18 results. Spindex returned to the list after their 1Q numbers showed that their profit margin had recovered as yield from newer projects had stabilized. Meanwhile, STI index stocks like SGX dropped out of the list as they were affected by market selldown.
I have bought the following companies from the market this month - AIMSAMP Capital REIT, Amara, Asia Enterprises, Bonvests, Bukit Sembawang Estates, Bund Center, Far East Orchard, Hong Fok, Hongkong Land, IHH, Jardine C&C, Koh Brothers, Mandarin Oriental, Pacific Century, Singapura Finance, Sing Investment & Finance, Tan Chong International and Wing Tai. I have also reduced my stake in Global Invacom and closed my position in Raffles Infrastructure.
I have accepted the following voluntary delisting/cash offer this month - Chew's Group. I have also executed my Sales Right to require the offeror to acquire my shares in Wheelock Properties.
I have participated in the following preferential offer/rights issue this month - Hong Leong Asia.
I have also participated in the following scrip dividend schemes - China Everbright, Global Investments, Jardine Strategic, OCBC and QAF.
Next month will be another quiet one. As usual, I will have to catch up on my readings. I will also be looking to re-invest my proceeds from those cash offers and Sales Right back into the markets prudently. With markets having recovered a bit from the selldown this month, there will be opportunities to selectively add onto my confident positions but I will continue to position my portfolio defensively due to the higher volatility being exhibited by the markets lately.

ReplyDeleteI haved handover my wheelock, Thanks a lot for guiding me.
For Kep T&T, not sure any update since last announcement of pritization?
Thanks
Hi Sunny,
ReplyDeleteYou are most welcome.
For Keppel T&T, we have to wait for the scheme document together with the IFA report. Since scheme of arrangement needs to go through court approval, the process is expected to be longer than a normal general offer. The scheme meeting I think will be held somewhere in the early part of next year and if the scheme is approved by shareholders, it will take another few weeks or so for the scheme to be effective and then you will receive your proceeds.

ReplyDeleteRegarding to script dividend if results in odd lot, will you still want to haveit? And especially if you are not sure you will hold the company for super long term.
Understand you got some Singpost, can share me some lights on its current and near future valuation wise?
Hi Sunny,
ReplyDeleteI will normally opt for scrip dividend if I am comfortable with the company and wish to hold the stock for long term. The scrip dividend price will have to taken into consideration as well. For stocks that I do not intend to hold for long, I would normally not take up their scrip dividend unless it is priced attractively. I do not mind having odd lots though.
SingPost has taken longer than I expected to recover and I will not be in a hurry to add onto my current position. Its local mail business is declining and international mail do not provide the kind of margin and volume that the local mail business has. e-commerce is still struggling to be profitable and logistics business has very low margin. I think the market already factored in their weaker than expected results and expected valuation had been driven down. I do not have a fair value for the stock but based on what I have shared here, I think their business will take a much longer time to recover.
