A mock S-REIT portfolio (2)

About one month ago, I created a mock basket of S-REIT portfolio. Let's see how these 'kembings' (every week I learn new terms from SMOL) have fared through Nov and Dec...


Market $ Entry $ * div yield% Shares Amount
Reits
Ascendas Hosp Trust 0.73 6.90 4800 $3,504
First Reit - health 1.17 7.00 2600 $3,029
CDL hosp 1.30 7.30 2300 $2,979
Ascott hosp 1.13 7.50 2500 $2,813
Mapletree logistics 0.98 7.60 2800 $2,744
Lippomall 0.30 10.70 10000 $2,950
Starhill global 0.74 7.10 3000 $2,205
Frasers Centrepoint 1.86 6.20 1600 $2,976
Ireit 0.66 9.69 4000 $2,640
CapitaRetailChina 1.40 1.335 7.50 3000 $4,005
0.982778 7.75 $29,844
*16/01/16 - Edited dividend yield according to market$. P/B and EV/EBIT removed. You could refer here for a gauge.

The reits in total have dropped a mere 0.7%. Looks like they are a bunch of resilient kembings against the bear uh. Let's do a little more probing.

As you can see the winner of the lot is kembing no 1 Ascendas-h! Why?

CapitalRetailChina, on the other hand, was around $1.48-$1.50 then (sorry missed out market$ in the earlier chart) and has suffered the biggest drop. That was quite expected. I have offloaded partially to see if can buy back at a lower price later. (Buy volume must have been poor, because lehlong also nobody want to buy my full load.)



Lippomall Indonesia feels a bit shaky (https://sg.finance.yahoo.com/news/lmir-trust-considers-exercising-put-042623162.html, http://www.lmir-trust.com/newsroom.html). If it remains so, I would take it out of the basket and replace with another reit of better value.

STI has dropped from 2900 to current 2644.57 (-8.8% and we know very well which are the black sheep shedding fur). Meh...

Earlier on last year I was quite anticipative of a bear market. I was sitting on my war chest which sits pathetically in the banks earning miserly interest (80% cash, 20% vested). Unfortunately, I chose to feed some of them to some black sheep when the bear decided to attack (boohooo my poor sheep).

It's like a complex feeling of being excited to see the bear but at the same time it struck fear in me.

In the event of poor economic growth, all stocks would suffer (reits included) so don't get over-complacent with them. In bad times you may see that Price/NAV remains about the same as previously because the net asset value of reits may drop. For those which prices drop but NAV remains the same in bad times, those would be good deals.

"But remember that Reits, unlike shares, pay out most of the income they get. When things go wrong (higher borrowing costs, lower rents), payouts suffer. No buffer, unlike companies dividends. In the worse case, can end up having to subscribe to rights issues because Reits don’t have reserves to draw on in hard times."

  1. Rainbow girl,

    Oh dear, I've been a bad influence.

    Bei kambing is used to describe a noob, newbie, white paper - someone who believes what others say without verification for himself/herself.

    But then, I like your interpretation!

    See yourself as a shepherd.

    If you flock is multiplying and healthy, you're a good shepherd :)

    If they are sickly and dwindling in numbers, well...

    1. I see... so putting it into the correct context is eg. "SMOL, don't lead the Bei Kambing astray!" haha.

      Ya we (investors) are like shepherds - afraid of bears and wolves. Tho I believe some shepherds have shrewd ways to deal with them.

Reflections for year 2024

2024 has been a relatively peaceful year. So peaceful that I have read countless novels and other books, met my sports buddies almost every weekend and picked up horticulture. Physical and mental health As we say, health is wealth. I have stuck fairly consistently with my exercise regime and tried to include more fruits and vegetables in my meals (although I eat out more and cook less these days). My weight, BP and cholesterol levels are doing ok. For those 40 years and above, remember to get your  subsidized health screenings from the government . Working less and meeting up with friends more contributed to an improved mental health. I see that the government has stepped up on initiatives in the community but work place initiatives from employers still seemed lackluster, especially for those who can't WFH and need to commit 44 hours or more a week at frontline work. I have also started a Gratitude journey to celebrate all my little life milestones. Financials Investment wise ...

The best credit card for my house reno & prep

As updated in my previous post, I have finally bought my own place solo. For the past few months I have been busy coordinating with various contractors and vendors for my house renovation. As I am still on flexi work schedule, I decided to be my own ID. With only a simple renovation in mind, I set my reno budget as 20k (aircon & fixtures inclusive). The renovation process and acting as my own ID were not as easy as I thought. It took me about a month to gather and compare quotations from different contractors and another few weeks to finalize all the things that I need my chosen contractor to do. I eventually settled for a main contractor who specializes in carpentry work but also provides painting, tiling and electrical services. I have grossly underestimated the amount of defects that need fixing for this resale flat. Fortunately, the floor tiles and some of the existing built-ins are still in good condition so I kept them, otherwise I would have burst my budget. The first issue ...

Shit happens and I lost my low-hanging fruits

My SAYE account has just hit its 25th month anniversary which is also the "month of maturity". Anticipating to get the 3.5% bonus interest for all these months of saving, I was shocked to see only $17+ cash gift credited as opposed to a few hundred dollars. I was about to send a message to query the bank what caused this interest plummet versus what I got in the 13th month when I came across a debit transaction in my account history (GASP!). To my oblivion and horror, I have accidentally selected my SAYE account to transfer $50 to a joint account to foot some bill in one of the months last year. Here's the terms and conditions for those who are not familiar with the SAYE account of POSB. "To receive the additional 3.5% p.a. Cash Gift Interest, ensure that you do not make any withdrawal from your POSB SAYE account." "If a withdrawal is made in the month, this will result in the previously accumulated additional 3.5% p.a. interest to be forfeited." Damn....
