STI vs my portfolio:
My portfolio already beat STI for many months with the cumulative amount of dividends collected, but if you count only capital gain, I still beat the market.
Portfolio by stocks:
I am currently still in the process of diversifying my portfolio such that they should not exceed more than 5% of my total portfolio. I am always looking out for more high dividend stocks to buy so that I will be more diversified. The recent bear market has allowed me many opportunities to pickup blue chips and mid cap chips with high dividends I have 23 stocks with me now and will be targeting to reach more than 30 of them.
Portfolio by sector:
In the sector diversification, my Capital Markets sector has come down due to my buying up of other sectors. I also bought in quite a number of shares in the Industrial conglomerates which consists of Keppel Corp and Sembcorp Ind, telco companies and REITs, it is now about 11.5%, 18.8% and 12% respectively. I am targeting probably not more than 20% for each sector of the other stocks.

Portfolio Analysis:
My worst performer is Noble Group (-55%) Grrr. I was trying to catch the bottom at 69c but it went down even further. Now, it is offering rights issue at 11c. Super big discount to its trading price :( Noble has gone through worst time during 2008 crisis but the lowest it went there was 42c I think. Let's hope Noble can pull through and recover *pray* haha
My best performer so far is UMS(36%). This one was bought during my early days and was collecting dividends and some capital gains :)
Overall, my portfolio still ends negative in mid 2016. Some credits for the diversification of stocks. My risks are spread out throughout my list of stocks. Cant imagine if I have a big share in Noble then my portfolio will look really bad. But things are turning around and I can see my portfolio recovering near to breakeven already. Just a few months more ...
At end of 2016, I already invested close to $174,000 and receive monthly dividend of $905. Based on the projection of my expected annual dividend of this current portfolio, I should be getting around $12000 which is about $1000 per month. So I should have met my 3rd year target. We will confirm this when we do a full review of 2017 at mid year. I will continue to follow my strategy of allocating $5000 each month to buy high dividend stocks and march towards my 3rd target which is ...

Farmer.

Jimmy,
ReplyDeleteWhat a great earn more and savings strategy!
Even if we strip out capital gains and dividends, $5K a month will grow to $60K per year.
And in 10 years you'll have $600K, and in 20 years $1.2 million :)
Just need to avoid heavy capital losses like in 2008 or 1997 where its more than a 50% hair-cut...
And keep your day job!
It's the biggest source of growth for your portfolio - not capital gains nor dividends ;)
It's nice to be a professional or be a corporate high flyer!
Impressed.
