My Investment Portfolio (October 2023)
STI continued its downtread for October to end at 3067 points, down around 4.8% as compared to last month closing. Concerns this month include Israel-Hamas conflict which could translate into war in Middle East, rising US long duration bond yield, rising oil prices etc. Volatility had also increased significantly in the markets this month, as compared to previous few months. REITs had also been sold off due to concerns of higher interest rate for longer, though they did recovered some lost ground towards the end of the month.
I have attended the following physical AGMs/EGMs/briefing this month - Wing Tai, Spindex, Chuan Hup and Lion AsiaPac.
For my top 30 holdings this month, most stocks had lost ground due to general market weakness. Samudera Shipping dropped out of the list after announcing a profit warning for their 3Q23 result. But there were a few outperformers. iFAST did well after announcing their 3Q23 result as their ePension project in Hong Kong had started to contribute revenue. Bonvests and LHT also did well.
I have bought the following companies from the market this month - AF Global, AP Oil. Asia Enterprises, Baker Tech, Bund Center, Captii, Chemical Industries, Credit Bureau Asia, EnGro, F&N, Frasers Property, Goodland, GuocoLand, Heeton, Ho Bee Land, Hongkong Land, Hock Lian Seng, Hong Leong Asia, Hong Leong Finance, Hotel Grand Central, Hotel Royal, Hotung, Huationg Global, Isetan, Jardine Matheson, Koh Brothers, Lum Chang, Mandarin Oriental, Metro, MYP, New Toyo, Pacific Century, PEC, SBS Transit, SHS, Sinarmas Land, Singapura Finance, SingTel, Stamford Land, Stamford Tyres, Straits Trading, Trendlines and Tye Soon. No sale trade was done.
I have participated in the following preferential offer/rights issue - AV Jennings.
Next month will be another quiet month although some companies will be announcing their 3Q23 results and updates. With only two months left before the end of the year, it will be a good time to slow down and do some reflections before the year draws to a close. Markets are expected to be more quiet as we head towards the holiday season so I don't expect much big movements. Therefore, it is quite likely that this is going to end up with another negative year for equities in general as well.
