If you have read my old posts, you will know I still invest in SGX Companies. But since I have gotten into shorter term active trading, these are some of the SGX companies that I am VESTED IN for potential short term investment period. 1. Asian Pay Television Trust (Vested at S$0.132) Major shareholder shift as of 2021. As of Jul 21 – A press release was announced: "NCC (National Communications Commission of Taiwan) rejects Da Da Digital’s proposed transaction to acquire 65% indirect interest in the Trustee-Manager of APTT NCC’s decision has no impact on the operations and cash flows of APTT or TBC, nor the distribution guidance of 1.0 Singapore cent per unit for 2021Araedis Investment Pte. Ltd., an associate of Da Da Digital, has been increasing its stake in APTT; remains committed

 I read an BT article on 5 investment pitfalls. I thought I blog about it to crystallize my thoughts. I hope I will be able to illustrate the various points made by the author with my own examples."If something is too good to be true, it probably is" I wonder what is considered "too good to be true"? Dividends yield of more than 10%? I remember I used to own APTT, LMRT, Sabana Reit and even SPH at $3.6. Most of them have yield around 10%. except SPH.Even suspended Qingmei gave an yield of 15% for me, once. I think there is big difference here between trailing yield and future yield. Looking back, buying counters with trailing yield of around 10% or more usually does more harm than good to my portfolio. There are indeed years where I harvest the above 10% yield, but it is not

But my returns then was heading nowhere. I was failing mainly because I was trying a lot of different things. One day, I decided to tell myself: It is time not to mess a

Recently, I decided to take a closer look at the financials of Manulife US REIT as I was rather confused by some analysts asserting that Manulife US REIT has a dividend yield of 8% but when one check the SGX dividend announcements, the annualised dividend yield is only around 5.4%. Apparently, there is a "missing block of dividends". Upon closer examination, the missing block of dividends is actually the capital distribution component of the half yearly distribution. The next question would be why is Manulife US REIT paying out distribution from its capital? Most importantly, is the future distribution sustainable? Also, is there a fundamental deteroriation in the results of the REIT?1. FY2020-Manulife US REIT Making LossesYes. This is not a typo. Manulife US REIT results for the first hal
