I hadn't been updating my blog for quite some time due to my hectic work schedule recently as I had been assigned to take on a higher role. But that does not stop me from monitoring the movement in the market.
This year had been a great year for me. I had made quite a far bit from trading as you can see I had a total capital gain of $1,339.09 as compared to a total dividend collected of $1,026.40 for the whole year. There are some misses and there are some great profits taken off the table before the price falls. The greatest miss I made is to sell my DBS too early, if not I will be rewarded handsomely. Key point taken from this episode is not to time the market. Go with the flow, when the price keep shooting up, wait for it to stablise before making the decision to keep or sell. The greatest profit taken off the table is Keppel Corp. I had made quite a couple of trades on Keppel Corp and my last trade on selling Keppel Corp is at $6.20 when OPEC gave a surprise shock to the market by cutting down on oil production. Now it is trading at $5.83 based on today closing.
I knew as a value investor, we should not be trading frequently or time the market to make some quick bucks. But when the opportunity arises, I feel we should seize it to bring more values to build our portfolio. All in all, total gain for my tiny portfolio in 2016 is $2,365.49.
Moving forward in 2017, I will adopt the value investor strategy to buy and collect dividend. As i will be more busier next year, given the higher role and responsibility assigned. I had lesser time to monitor the movement of the market. Let's see whether this strategy rewards me better or not.
