Those who bought KDC reit cheap, better throw and run.  $2.10 is about where it starts getting overpriced…..

 

Alerted you guys to throw KDC at $2.10 last week , hope you did.  
Now $1.85 only.  
 

KIT on the other hand went up from 44cts to 50cts with a 3 ct div.   Shiok.

I i recall this youtube guru Josh Tan who was buying Straits Trading.  I think he DCA this counter over a year or something Becos he was bullish on commodities...his top pick

Wah say, sweat man.

Commodities is going to weaken in a weak global economy.

But i think Oil maybe fine as the tensions in the middle east is supporting it. Bought a bit of CNOOC yesterday.

Crazy bet. It is impossible to know/ predict everything, owners take such concentration risk cause the risk and reward matrix for them is very different from an investor buying a publicly traded stock.

Just curious for single counter, what is your cap?  With all the geopolitical / decoupling risk, I am thinking of bringing it down further but there is just not enough good business to diversify into, especially in SG market.

so-so ... 3%-5%

branded one ... 8%-10%

sibei strong conviction ... 10-15%

my biggest mistake at one point was holding 25% for Sicktel ... with all the simi sai 5G rollout and ebanking JV ... sibei jialat ...

luckily at one point stock price reach $2.70 this year and divest ... huat ah!

Yes its impossible.  for all his stupidity I guess the only respect is that he put his money where his mouth is😂.   And it was at around the same time,i was calling to sell Singpost.  i proceeded to sell all my singpost at about 63.5ct and ran with the profit, never to look back.
 

for single counter i think 10% of entire warchest is probably most i would go. As it stands the largest single counter holding i have is MLT and thats quite far from 10% still.   
 

yes its difficult to invest currently, prices neither here nor there.  Not enough conviction.  Continue to nibble here and there.. good thing cash still pays 3.5%

Ok. I am also in the 5-10% range now, save for some bank and REIT stocks I bought during last GFC.  Hoping to reduce to 3-5% handle in the next 1-2 years.

hstech i was up usd 35k , held on and now down almost usd50k 🤣😂

and thats why we diversify.  Becos investing isnt about each single bet , its about it entirety. 
 

I would mind if hstech goes to zero if my portfolio is up 10%….😎😎

Its ok lah. Cant win on every bet.  

i bought HStech at that point becos it seemed to hv more legs to run and i had zero chinese or tech exposure.  
and i was right becos it shot up 35%, but then all the unforseeable political play came in.
