Market continued its uptrend from 2020, and with the Covid-19 situation stabilising, the old economy counters have started to recover as well. Overall, the local market had moved up along with the rest of the global indexes. As such, some of the sectors are not as cheap as they were during the massive correction last year.TransactionsWith the recent run up, I took profit on the following counters.KimlyDBSOCBC (Partial)ExxonSTI ETF (Partial)Some of the counters were mentioned in this post. For DBS, using 5 years average dividend of $1.09, at $25 it is fairly valued. Of course it can go higher but I am happy with my profit.The reason that I took profit is they have given me decent returns, most up to 5 years worth of dividend that I would have collected.
