Starhill Global @ $0.815

Sell @ $0.815

Contra off my recent buy to free up cash. My original intention was to hold till their quarterly results on 27-Jan…

I put in a $0.81 sell during 5pm matching and was lucky to see it matched 1 bid higher… 😀

UMS @ $0.50, $0.495

Buy @ $0.50, $0.495

Used 2 different accounts to buy. Give me a choice of both long term and short term strategies to choose from.

Q4 results will be out in end-Feb (28-Feb last year). I'm expecting UMS to maintain Div = 2ct for a total of 5ct / year. 9M EPS = 4.95ct and even though Q4 EPS is expected to be not too good from their guidance, I'm not expecting a Loss. The Positive for their Industry is BB >1 for Nov-14, after being <1 for Sep-14 & Oct-14. Further, the Bookings is +10% after the low of Oct-14. Hopefully, that's the bottom… we'll know soon when Dec-14 BB is released on 23-Jan…. 😀

ARA @ $1.6663

Buy @ $1.67, $1.665, $1.66

Looks like seller is getting impatient… all the way to $1.65. I have now collected back all those I'd previously sold… plus more…. 😀

FCOT @ $1.41

Buy @ $1.41

Jump-Q at 5pm when a big block appeared. Had been unsuccessful to buy back at $1.405 for past weeks… With results to be released on 22-Jan, the urgency is there for me to buy at a higher price… Am expecting DPU to be higher than last Q = 2.2145ct … Hoping to see 2.35ct to 2.4ct (a +10% from Alexandra TechnoPark mitigated by a -1% from Australia assets due to weaker A4) ðŸ˜€

ARA @ $1.67

Buy @ $1.67

Partially done… yet again…. I have collected back almost the entire block which I sold previously… perhaps one more buy. Am ok to hold till Q4 results sometime in Feb or just trade for short term gains if opportunity arises… 😀

ComfortDelgro @ $2.57

Sell @ $2.57

Contra off both buys, no more left. Short term objective met, free up cash and move on to next target…. strategy based on high mkt volatility due to oil price drop… 😀

ComfortDelgro @ $2.52

Buy @ $2.52

Jump-Q during 8:58am matching to average down my other buy ($2.55). Used a different acct so that I have the option to contra… 😀

F&N @ $2.71

Sell @ $2.71

Decided to contra off as my free cash level is getting low again… With market so volatile (one day big drop followed by 2 days of recovery), I intend to stick to my strategy of short term profit taking, whenever possible… 😀

ARA @ $1.68

Buy @ $1.68

Went to Q and suddenly got done and dropping to $1.675 for a while. In the afternoon, the programmed selling is at $1.68 triggering a $1.675 sale if someone buys at $1.68….  I was a bit late and my Q @ $1.675 didn't get done…. 😀

ComfortDelgro @ $2.55

Buy @ $2.55

New addition to my portfolio. Itch fingers, went to Q and really got done… hit a low of $2.53 after that but closed @ $2.55, -2ct today. My thinking is the first beneficiaries of lower oil prices would be Airlines and Transportation biz… but the benefits may not be seen immediately as they may be clearing older inventories or have their oil needs hedged…. Anyway, I'd always liked ComfortDelgro as there'd been continued EPS growth for the past few years… just that, the PE is on the high side ie 20 and the Yield <3%…. 😀
