My Investment Portfolio (February 2024)
STI closed February at 3141 points, down around 0.3% as compared to last month. Data watching and earnings report were the name of the game this month. Investors watch out for key data out from the US while Singapore had been flooded with full-year earnings reports from companies with financial year ending 31 December 2023.
For my top 30 holdings this month, there had been some major movements as investors reacted to results reporting from companies. Multi-Chem made it to the list for the first time, after announcing a set of result that beat market expectations and also increased their dividend payout. LHT was also one of the main contributor, after surprising the market with a special dividend payout. Frencken was another performer, as analysts upgraded their target prices on the stock after their result announcement. Wing Tai also did well, after a newspaper report on the company as a potential privatisation candidate. Sembcorp Industries though, was one of the bigger detractors while Delfi dropped out of the list as investors sold down the stock after their result announcement, which indicated margin compression.
I have bought the following companies from the market this month - AP Oil, Asia Enterprises, BBR, Bonvests, Brook Crompton, Bukit Sembawang Estates, City Developments, Credit Bureau Asia, EnGro, First Sponsor, Global Investments, Hiap Hoe, HL Global, Ho Bee Land, Hor Kew, Hong Leong Asia, Hotel Grand Central, Hotel Royal, IFS Capital, Indofood Agri, Innotek, IPC Corp, Karin, Koh Brothers, Lum Chang, Mandarin Oriental, Nam Lee, Ossia, OUE, Pacific Century, Pan Hong, SHS, Silverlake Axis, Singapore Land Group, Stamford Tyres, Straits Trading, Taka Jewellery, Tan Chong International, TIH, Tuan Sing, Wing Tai and Yeo Hiap Seng. I have also closed my position in Hiap Seng.
Next month will be another quiet one with not much corporate activities as investors digest those full-year results from companies with financial year ending 31 December 2023. I will continue to go through some of those result announcements that I have missed out in February. With companies citing many issues like global economic uncertainties, ongoing geopolitical issues, raising costs etc in their outlook statements, I will still adopt a more defensive positioning for my portfolio going forward.
