My Investment Portfolio (July 2024)
STI ended July at 3455 points, up more than 3.5% as compared to last month. Led by the 3 banks and fund inflows, STI had one of the better performing month this year, though the markets had cooled down towards the end of the month due to tech stocks selloff. Focus by the markets this month had been on the upcoming US Presidential election, inflation data, timing of monetary policy easing and geopolitical conflicts. Volatility had also increased for the month, though it had tapered off a bit towards the end of the month.
I have attended the following physical AGMs/EGMs/briefing this month - Mapletree Logistics Trust, Best World and Metro Holdings.
For my top 30 holdings this month, Great Eastern was suspended from trading when its free float dropped below 10% after the unconditional offer from OCBC closed. Main contributors include iFAST, PM Data and Multi-Chem. Samudera Shipping was a main laggard after announcing their 1H24 result that disappointed the market. Frencken and Global Testing also underperformed and they dropped out of the list as investors sold down tech related stocks. SingTel returned to the list after a long absence, as they plan to pay higher dividends. The two REITs are back into the list, as investors became more positive on impending interest rate cuts.
I have bought the following companies from the market this month - Bonvests, Brook Crompton, Bund Center, Captii, Chemical Industries, Chuan Hup, City Developments, F&N, First Sponsor, GRP, GuocoLand, Hiap Hoe, HL Global, Ho Bee Land, Hock Lian Seng, Hong Fok, Hong Leong Asia, Hong Leong Finance, Hotel Grand Central, Hotung, Huationg Global, Indofood Agri, Intraco, IPC Corp, Jardine C&C, Karin, Koda, KSH, Lion AsiaPac, Lum Chang, Mandarin Oriental, Metro, MYP, Nam Lee, Overseas Education, Pan Hong, SBS Transit, Secura, Shangri-La Asia, Sin Heng, Sinarmas Land, Singapore Land Group, Singapore Shipping, Singapura Finance, Stamford Land, Straits Trading, Tan Chong International, TIH, Tuan Sing, Tye Soon, Wing Tai and Yeo Hiap Seng. I have also closed my position in Camsing Healthcare.
I have accepted the following voluntary delisting/cash offer this month - Second Chance Properties.
Next month will be another financial reporting season, as companies having financial year ending 31 December 2024 will continue reporting their half year results. As usual, I will be going through some of those results. I will also continue to re-invest dividends received back into the markets, while remaining prudent in deploying them.
