The above table shows my 24 stocks
portfolio, all listed in SGD. It is listed in order of descend in terms of %
allocation. This means, Coca Cola Amatil (CCL) is my largest portfolio while
KrisEnergy is the smallest.

STI

It has been a good start for STI
this year. The index rallied to 3,472 closed this week, a 3.2% increase YTD.
My Major Portfolios
Coca Cola Amatil (CCL) is
listed in ASX. It is my largest portfolio one of the top performers since the start of
the year. In AUD, this counter escalated from A$9.3 end last year to A$11.0 now,
denoting a >18% rise. But for reasons that A$ has weakened against S$ since
start of the year, overall share price increase were negated to >16%. Refer more on CCL
here.
My second
biggest portfolio Raffles Medical (RMG)
remains fairly unchanged YTD. RMG is looking forward to twin engines of growth by 2016. 1) Extension of current Hospital facilities 2) Launching of a new
5-storey building at Holland Village. Refer more on RMG
here and here.
Since
start of the year, both Comfort Delgro and
CM Pacific have shown stellar
performances in its share price, climbing to double digit % gain. For Comfort,
reasons could be the drop in oil price, reducing petrol cost, as well as future
revenue from rail Downtown Line (DTL) phase 2 opening in 1Q16 and phase 3 by
mid-2017. For CMP, the rise may be supported by its strong balance sheet and
attractive dividend yield, with potential headroom for more toll acquisitions.
It could also be attributed to the recent bull’s run in the China stock
markets.
ARA price remains fairly
unchanged. Short term resistances stem from interest rate increase and new MAS
regulations imposing stricter rules on managers’ fees. In the long term, we derives confidence inferring from its past ten years yoy impressive increase in earnings, led
by strong management. Refer here for more of
ARA.
Yield Stocks

For Reits and Trusts stocks such as Asian Pay TV Tr, AIMS AMP Cap REIT, CapitaRetail CT,
Fraser COT
, Lippo MIRT, Mapletree Log Tr and Suntec Reit, I had set a
conservative target of minimum 5% dividend yield on cost. So far, all are on target
and above. So I am happy.
Other Portfolios

Retail climate in Singapore is still poor with high cost from labour tightening.  Courts Asia last quarter’s earnings is badly affected by forex loss and losses from opening of Indonesia Bekasi megastore. Weaker MYR also does not help. After Apr 15, retail revenue in Malaysia may be affected due to GST implementation.  
Super Group was one of my most depressed stocks last year. Since start of the year, the stock had rebounded with an impressive 28% increase in share price. Reasons could be the reduction of coffee price, Branded Consumer (BC) revenues back on track and Food Ingredient (FI) margin expansion. There is also a one-time gain from sale of factory premises, strengthening balance sheet.
Share price of Overseas Education rise 3%. Sentiments fairly neutral. On the negative, it is likely due to the continual rising expenses and potential students leaving the schools in new semester due to new campus locations. On the positive, the new campus in Pasir Ris has completed last month ahead of schedule in May15. Management believed most students should stay on after relocation from Orchard to Pasir Ris. New facilities, higher capacity (from 3940 to 4800) and potential of fees hike should outshine the negatives. 

OUE has risen >7%. The catalyst is likely because of RNAV due to assets transferred into its REITs. I might consider to take profits, since most of the quality assets were already re-injected into the REITs. 

SGX and Starhub
are stocks in my SRS account, investing on a longer horizon up to retirement –
maybe? Their short term results do not bother me too much.

Oil and Gas Stocks
It
requires no explanation how depressed the O&G industry is now due to the
plummeted oil price. Sembcorp still
remained relatively unchanged, buoyed by the utilities sector and its Marine
Division’s ability to still receive O&G orders. Swissco tumbles >20% YTD painfully. Worries are rife, due to its
rig fleet’s existing charters with the troubled Mexico PEMEX cancelled/not-renewed, as well as
oversupply in OSV market. Similarly, Ezion may
frown over the feasibility and profitability of its liftboat charters with other oil
companies. Nevertheless, within the gloomy O&G industry, I believe Liftboat is one sector
that still emits light. KrisEnergy constitutes less than 1% of my portfolio,
therefore I shall not go into the details. 

Stocks Added / Removed
I have not added many new stocks this year. The only new addition is China Aviation Oil (CAO). Refer why I added CAO here. CAO has achieved an astonishing close to 30% increase YTD. Since start of my purchase, it has risen over 20% within less than 3 months. I had also divested Vallianz entirely due to the gloominess in O&G.



Rolf’s Summary 
Overall, I am happy with the performance of my portfolio except for the depressed O&G stocks. 
Since the start of the year, I had further increased my cash position from 20% of Stock Portfolio cost last year to more than 30% this year. 
Two reasons. First, to take advantage of any potential bearish situation. Second, I anticipate more time to be spent in my career this year than on my personal investments, so less invested monies.

    1. Hi B,

      Thanks and I am sure you did well too. Let's hope this is sustainable which for now, seems like a mini-euphoria ongoing in China stock markets.

  1. Really good portfolio you have here. I am impressed. You are one hell of a specialist in this area, I must say. I think this site can be really helpful for me to make my way through finances education. Thanks.
