Investment Report Card – Feb 11

In my last trading report card, I said I intended to hold out stocks for a longer period of time. I was bullish (and still am), and had bought some stocks before Chinese New Year. On hindsight, you would know that the market was quite terrible for the past few weeks. But it was something that I could handle emotionally even though the capital did draw down quite a bit.

But I still traded 3 stocks despite what was mentioned in the last report card:

  • Golden Agriculture – Bought 0.745 and sold 0.680 (loss = $670)
  • CH Offshore – Sold 0.485 and bought 0.500 (loss = $170)
  • Biosensors – Bought 1.17 and sold 1.09 (loss = $440)

Total realized loss for Feb 2011 is S$1,280.

Now looking at the stocks that I am investing (as of 28 Feb 11)

  • Breadtalk – Bought 0.59, now 0.62 (+5.08%)
  • Chip Eng Seng – Bought 0.415, now 0.440 (+6.02%)
  • Orchard Parade – Bought 1.17, now 1.49 (+27.3%)
  • Starhill Global REIT – Bought 0.57, now 0.635 (+11.4%)
  • Viking – Bought 0.200, now 0.195 (-2.5%)
  • Swiber – Bought 0.975, now 0.775 (-20.5%)
  • Gallant Venture – Bought 0.415, now 0.365 (-12%)
  • Citigroup – Bought 4.88, now 4.69 (-3.9%)
  • Tuan Sing – Bought 0.306, now 0.295 (-3.6%)
  • Guthrie – Bought 0.455, now 0.440 (-3.3%)
  • Fraserscomm – Bought 0.825, now 0.815 (-1.2%)

    Hi Alvin,
    do you notice? If you had not bought Swiber (I didn’t), your investment performance might be positive instead.

  4. Alvin says:

    Haha, true. Itchy hand but I don’t blame anyone. I take full responsibility of the decision.

    You are holding on to too many stocks . You should construct a more concentrated portfolio . Narrow down the industries you wish to invest. Be very focused instead of having bits and pieces here and there. Bear in mind , Spore market doesnt have the depth and breadth like what you have in more developed markets.
