All winners!

by @ 07:51 39 pm. Filed under Invest

My portfolio is turning green all over the place…

Sadly, last year’s top performer EllipsizĀ is languishing in a stalemate - range bound btw 75-85cts. Good thing I reduce my holding by 50%; still has an uneasy feeling it may suddenly shoot to $1.

This year’s brightess star must be SunPower - shining so briliantly moving up almost 80% from low of 13cts to 21cts. Managed to squeeze in Genting at 88cts; a lucky number no doubt. Maybe do a quickie contra if it hit $1 tomorrow.

Another sleeper that is waking up is HGMetal… this was a huge disappointment abt 3 yrs back. It had remained dormant after moving down to abt 25cts from a high of 60cts. No doubt, it was paper loss most of the time; The main reason I did not sell off was because of the relatively generous div @4+%. There was significant recovery in price, moving up ever so quietly… Unfortunately, I did sell off someĀ 2 days earlier @46.5cts while today’s closing stand at @51cts… At least overall, I managed to retain the capital for those lots that was sold.

Others counters taking a back seat at this point in time are;

  1. MIIF - good div return; >6% based on buying price
  2. Noble - only left bonus issue; intend to buy back when funding permits, hope it does not make a run before that…
  3. Riverstone - new ipo; tough luck… range bound @ipo price… only managed 2 lots for the ipo and had to top up @ premium from the open market… but, have a feeling this one will eventually move when reporting comes.
  4. K1 Venture - failed to meet expectation; some paper loss at the present moment. Full of potential, but market just refuse to recognise it. Good thing there was a redistribution back of 15% capital ;)

Well, it’s been almost as good a new year as it was in 2006. Obviously I hope to surpass my target set for 2006 and 2007 by a big margin. 8)

Good start for 2007 market

Today is the 1st trading day for 2007 (Singapore STI).

Almost all my counters make good gains… especially SunPower (+12%) - ALL GREEN :) :D It is joined by my top perform of 2006, Ellipsiz (+5%).
I have a very strong feeling that my portfolio will break new records this year.

Happy New Year 2007

by @ 12:01 52 am. Filed under WebLog

It’s a quiet celebration this year.. went cruising in my new wheels;

Stopped by West Coast Park - lots of younger folks, many BBQ and gather to usher in the new year. A time for reflection nevertheless. The year that has just passed and the year unfolding ahead. Career wise, it has taken a pleasant twist; waiting in anticipation for Feb 2007. Social, the inclusion of my own sets of wheels spells new level of mobility which is clearly evidence - within a span of less than a week, it had travelled over 500km!! Need to start watching the $$.

No fireworks this time round.. think I’ve outgrown watching and photographing them… Also learnt some sad news concerning an old buddy from PFS… life is full of the unexpected. And the impact that brings along only makes you cherish what you have and focus on what really matters.
