Here is another update, so quickly another month has passed by. Well, markets pretty much didn't do much over this month, it didn't go to outrageously high levels to warrant much selling, although I did make one large sale this month. It didn't go to levels more attractive for me to make large transactions, hence its another month of limited transactions.
The largest sale I made this month reduced my overall position by almost half. It was the sale of Croesus Retail Trust after the trust price moved upwards after the news of the acquisition. I took the chance to remove the heavy position I had since the middle of 2015, as part of my rebalancing portfolio to keep it more diversified and spread out across the different industries. I had an new position I initiated last month in my SCB account on Croesus Retail Trust as part of mainly speculative position made plainly because I had predicted the price of the trust would move upwards after the knee-jerk reaction due to the placement. It will remain in my SCB account as I still feel that the trust is a good source of passive income and its dividend yield sustainable along with my faith in the management.
The liquidation of this large position allowed me a larger war-chest to accumulate positions should the market go into a correction mode in future. I will continue to make smallish positions where I see fit while continuing to save aggressively from my monthly income, continuously adding to my war-chest.
The other surprise that happened this month was the sudden news about Ascendas Hospitality not looking to sell its assets despite multiple offers from at least 3 companies. This led to a crash in the price of Ascendas, falling as low as $0.66. The rebound was swift, and I failed to purchase more, but only added a few weeks later at $0.68 when it didn't look like it would go down further. Would look to purchase more on further weaknesses if presented. I am looking forward to its 2 quarters of distribution coming in this week or the next.
I have also added another hospitality REIT, Ascott REIT, in order to boost the hospitality segment in my REIT portfolio. Furthermore, I felt that Ascott REIT share price has been suffering from overhang from the recent placement done last month. The only regret was not being able to buy right after the placement, the similar strategy I employed with Croesus, simply because I was not monitoring the market frequently enough.
In other news, I had bought back Sheng Siong again at $0.84, another smallish position, awaiting the dividend coming in May. I may consider selling it if the price is favourably high enough after it goes XD.
And once again, I will continue to stay patient, though my hands are itching to buy more income producing assets with the increased size of the current war-chest now. But noooo, I will stay disciplined and focus on buying only when there is blood in the news. Waiting for the bumper dividends coming in May!
