My Investment Portfolio (June 2025)

STI ended first half of the year at 3964 points, up around 1.8% for the month and up around 4.7% year to date. Markets were up during the early part of the month on stronger than expected payrolls result and President Trump’s push to cut interest rate. Also, anticipation of trade deal conclusion between US and China further added to the positive outlook. However, escalated tensions in the Middle East towards the middle of the month capped its upside though it recovered as the month closes.

For my top 30 holdings this month, most stocks in the list did well. Hong Leong Asia and UOB Kay Hian are the new entries into the list, replacing F&N and SBS Transit. Main contributors include The Hour Glass and Tat Seng. Laggards include Hotel Grand Central and Jardine C&C.

I have bought the following companies from the market this month - AF Global, Baker Tech, Banyan Group, Bonvests, Brook Crompton, Bund Center, Chuan Hup, Delfi, Digilife Tech, EnGro, F&N, Far East Orchard, Frasers Property, Golden Agri, GuocoLand, Hiap Hoe, HL Global, Ho Bee Land, Hong Fok, Hong Leong Finance, Hotel Grand Central, Hotung, Indofood Agri, Innotek, IPC Corp, Jardine C&C, Khong Guan, Metro, PSC Corp, Qian Hu, Riverstone, Secura, Singapore Shipping, Singapura Finance, Stamford Tyres, Straits Trading, Sunright, Tuan Sing, Tye Soon, Venture, Wing Tai, Yeo Hiap Seng and YHI. No sale trade was done.

I have accepted the following voluntary delisting/cash offer this month - Ban Leong.

My stake in PEC had also been acquired via Scheme of Arrangement.

Next month will be another AGM season, with companies having financial year ending 31 March 2025 holding their AGMs. It will also be another low dividend paying month. As usual, I will continue to re-invest those dividends back into the market at a slower pace, in anticipation of the various headwinds ahead.

Hi GH, do u see Shangri as deeply undervalued and any potential catalyst that may help in it share price (other than recent mgt change)

Hi Bamboo,

Yes. Shangri-La Asia is deeply undervalued. If you look at its RNAV of around HK$23+, the stock is trading at around 0.2x RNAV only.

For a company with such a portfolio of high quality hotels and brand, it is certainly cheap. They have resume paying dividends since the Covid pandemic fallout, but it seems that its share price didn't recovered much since then.

I think the main reason is their big exposure to China. Unless China recovered in a big way, it is difficult to see the market re-rating the stock. Therefore, if you ask me about catalyst, then China property market recovery is crucial for it.

Hi Bamboo,

It is the nature of their distribution business to fund inventories using debt and payables. I would say it is a steady business, and they are profitable and paying dividends in most years. They have quite a long history of operation, so I believe that they have the knowledge and experience in running the business. Yes, the business margin is low, but they have manage it well throughout the years.

I think the discount to book value is attractive for a company with such a long track record.
