Sep 15 3,209.56 -11.39 294 million shares traded 3.26 3.35 Before buying any shares, I find it useful to have a peek at the chart
as I want to avoid buying shares that are in a downtrend. SPH had
been on a downtrend since October 2015, so your money would be stuck if
you had invested in it as you would not know when the downtrend will stop.
This is often refer as a falling knife.

Aug 25 3,259.57 -12.59 172 million shares traded 3.31 3.40 The stock market is being driven by two elements which is fear and greed. Many investors do not stick to their long term investment plans but rather base their decisions on ever changing price levels. Greed within the market is created when prices of particular stock increase rapidly whereas fear within the market is created when prices of a particular stock decrease rapidly. Warren Buffett, the genius of investments, does not succumb to these two emotions present within the world of stock market and rather rigorously follows his long term strategy. This is his key to success and therefore investors must remember that changing price levels are temporary and they can only result in greed and fear but not long term returns! As not to be succumb to fear, will keep averaging ST Eng and Mapletree Com Trust if it keep going down. Recent Buy

Aug 18 3,251.99 -16.89 231 million shares traded 3.29 3.38 Taking profits out of TalkMed as it seems to be trending down like many other health care stocks. Averaging Singapore O&G as the dividend is much better at current price. Will average down again if it drop below 0.30 as the fundamental is still good but not market sentiment towards health care stocks. Also, 2 of their doctors already start buying at the 0.40 cents range, so it make business sense for me to start averaging from this level onwards. Company

For me, I always avoid non-dividend paying stocks as I don't wish to be paid nothing while waiting for the fundamental good stocks trend to change and move upwards. Recent Buy

Aug 11 3,279.72 -43.52 311 million shares traded 3.30 3.40 After 3 weeks of new 52 weeks high, the STI finally found the reason to go down with the news of increase tension cause by US and North Korea word of wars. The situation had become worst due to North Korea repeated missile tests, including two successful intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) test launches in July. Those launches put the US mainland in range. Some experts believe the second missile could potentially reach New York. This week, we can also see that the earning of the companies you hold drive the stock price:

Aug 04 3,326.52 -16.40 225 million shares traded 3.35 3.45 Property counter City Development (12.06), UOL (8.06), CapitaLand (3.86) and Hong Kong Land (7.80) perform the strongest as they announced stronger result. Banks was also performing strongly beginning of the week until DBS warns of provisions for oil and gas portfolio could be higher which cause a little panic selling at the end of the week. This week is a very good example where we can see that in the short-term, price will over-react based on positive or negative news. The fundamental of a company you purchased is very important in the long-term as the price will always reflect the company earning power. Recent Buy

Jul 28 3,330.75 -23.96 223 million shares traded 3.33 3.42 STI hit record high for the 3rd week on 27 July 2017 at 3,354.17. This week SPH hits another new 52 weeks low at 2.85. On the other hand Singtel went up to 4.00 after the listing of NetLink NBN Trust as it is now flush with cash. As market gets higher, I will continue to unload some of my shares. Thank god that the dry dividend month for July is going to be over soon, looking forward to August where more companies will be paying dividends, yummy. The dividend will be re-invested into the market so that the power for compounding can do its work. Recent Buy

Jul 21 3,314.12 +20.99 281 million shares traded 3.37 3.42 STI this week hit another new high on 19 July at 3325.07. Usually, when the mood is good, I will slowly sell some of my stock each day as market hit higher high. The selling risk is that I will miss out the higher profits but again, as I have learn before, market can suddenly turn and no one can catch the highest points. I will buy back when I feel fear again. There is always a time to buy and a time to sell, you have to decide yourself when is yours. Know your plan and execute them when the time come, do not hesitate and learn from your mistake and improve it as the market will always be there. Recent Buy

Jul 14 3,287.43 +51.76 424 million shares traded 3.32 3.38 Surprise week as STI broke new 52 weeks high to 3,287.43 New 52 weeks low for SPH @ 3.03 Good news for GLP shareholders as a Chinese consortium Nesta Investment Holdings Limited has offered to take over GLP at the price of 3.38 Recent Sell
Jul 07 3,229.01 +2.67 188 million shares traded 3.27 3.32 New 52 weeks low for SPH @ 3.14 and ComfortDelgro @ 2.20 - both stocks are in long-term down trend, avoid if you can. One interesting news this week was about ComfortDelgro which encourage their drivers to take snapshots of uber or grab car drivers who pulls up at taxi stands and commit other offenses. Since the penetrations of private hire car, ComfortDelGro taxi business have been going downhill and is no longer the big brothers as the private hire cars of uber and grab have outnumbered taxi at about 41,000 against 26,000 taxis. The continue downhill of its share price shows that investor are waiting to see if ComfortDelGro can invest in other source of revenue to cover its 30% loss of its taxi business. Recent Buy
