About me .. STE





Hi Everyone !  is me STE, I would like to start a blog to pen down and document my thoughts on stocks investing and also “talking to myself “ on some issues relating to investing ideas/world. I will try not to mention any particular stock in my blog post as it is very hard to do any “prediction or forecast “ of future or stock's movement and also this may attract unnecessary dispute/incident if anything goes wrong .. I will be using more graphic / chart/table/quotes to explain my thought and ideas as “ pictures worth more than a thousand words “,, the most important things is …I don’t really good in explaining things in words.. haha.



I have few blog post appeared in AK’s blogs as one of his guest bloggers. You may find some of the info about me and my investment strategy in these blog post … please refer to below link for more info.

      Hi foolish chameleon,
      Thanks for the comments , I have seen your portfolio in your blog post , think with compounding interest , your passive income will increase much to this level some days.
      As I have mentioned in "my portfolio " blog post , my current portfolio yield is around 7.2% , form here , you might be able to have a good guest on my total portfolio value. :)
      Cheers !

    STE,

    some "days"? haha...
    it will take a few million of such "days"!
    but thanks for your encouragement!

    might have overlooked on that yield %. blinded by the payout.

2023 Portfolio & Dividend Update

Image
  A Rollercoaster Ride I know, Uncle was really late to have this 2023 performance review as we are already in February 2024 😊 . Pai-seh, I was busy with a family trip to Korea followed by a Cruise Trip onboard RCL. Also, during the school holidays, we went a few times short trips to Malaysia and back to my hometown. My younger daughter got her O Level result followed by searching and applying for JC. That’s why I have been delaying this update and dragging my feet to write this blog post. I think most of us had the same feeling that 2023 was a challenging yet dynamic period for investors, marked by a series of unpredictable events that significantly affected our returns. I have seen my portfolio up by more than 10% in the early part of the year and it dropped by more than -8 % at one time and recovered slightly better at the end of the year with +2.3% (including dividend). As an investor, navigating through such a volatile market requires adaptability, patience, resilience, and

Stock Market Looks Like A Casino Now : Have Fun !!

  GameStop the Market: Big Bets on Stock Make Wall Street Look Like a ‘Casino’ <source:casino.org>     The biggest bets made over the past couple days haven’t been placed in a casino on the Las Vegas Strip. Instead, the action’s taken place on Wall Street, as a group of stock traders on Reddit have aimed at hedge fund traders, who have made high-stakes wagers that businesses like GameStop and AMC Entertainment would stumble . The Stock Market is a Fun Casino <source:ritholtz.com>   The stock market works  as if  people were investing money in companies; some indirect mechanism ties the secondary trading of stock to the allocation of capital.  1   And of course in the limit companies  can  raise money by selling stock. So buying stock is  like  investing money in a company in exchange for partial ownership of its projects, and the amount you should pay for a stock is basically the discounted present value of the company’s cash flows from its business.

Regression Line for Major Stock Market Indexes

Mean Reversion : image credit to asymmetryobservation.com Received inquiry from friends/readers about "plotting regression line " for major stock markets other than STI. Would like to reiterate here that the " regression line " is just a "statistical phenomena " same as other indicators in Technical Analysis where we are just using past price trend or movement to manipulate or so call " forecasting " the future price movement.

Portfolio & Dividends Update : 1st Half 2023

Image
Time flies, and as we find ourselves in the midst of 2023, it is remarkable to reflect upon the passage of time and experience that has unfolded. I’m sure we all have different experiences in the 1st half of 2023 in terms of portfolio management and performance. For me, the last two quarters were like YOYO and my portfolio was performing well till March ( up by almost 11%) with the hope China “re-opening and recovery “But, as time passes, the strength of the recovery is getting weaker month by month and now everyone is hoping for more “ stimulus policies” to boost the economy, with declining economic indicators like retail sales, property sales, high unemployment among youth, slower export due to weak demand from developed countries, lower PPI and almost flat or zero CPI figure. All this has made my portfolio up and down huge, dropping to -2% at one point, and rebounding slightly to 4.68% now, with hopes of more policy support from the government. If you are invested in the US or J
