My Stock Report Card for Nov 2014
Total Dividend Collected from Jan – Nov 2014 : SGD $57,070.68.
Income distribution this month came from SGX, Keppel Reit, SMRT, Suntec Reit, Cache, Capitalmall Trust, Starhub, Sabana Reit, Apple, Citigroup.
No transaction this month. Sabana Reit looks terrible and Twitter has been downgraded to Junk. Alibaba is my new darling ;-p.
very nice.
Hi just wonder how you buy the stock? U brought it yourself via internet or from broker?
Hi Jackeline,
I do online trading.
Hi, may I know how you do online trading?
Hi Jackeline,
You can sign up with a broker who will offer you an online trading account. See link below for more information on how to go about signing up with a broker.

Since sabana is smashed, you reckon its good to buy it now in hopes of it going up ?
Hi Marcus,
I think there are better reits out there than Sabana to buy :).
Hi, do you use Technical Analysis or Fundamental Analysis to select their stocks? Can you share your strategies? Do you just buy during pull back and hold? When do you cut their losses? Also Starhub and Apple accounts for a huge portion of the portfolio. Any reasons?
Mike
Hi Mike,
Wow, a lot of questions there 🙂
These two articles may give you some clues :

Hi Im new on the site. Quite impressed by the the website banner that says 112k to 1M in 7 years AND annual div income of 51K.
That is an impressive annualised growth of 36.71% and i presume you reinvest most, if not all of your dividends. Compared to say the STI ETF you are doing tremendously well 🙂
Hi Daron,
Thanks ;). I am still learning by the day.
Hi, thks for yr articles and private sharing. I hv learnt a lot from you. I am very much an investment novice – how do you get started buying US stocks? Thru a local broker? Do you hv to buy 1 lot (1000 shares) or can we buy less than that to start off?
Appreciate yr advice about starting consistently. I hope to one day reach your position. Thank you.
Hi Melanie,
I’m glad you found my articles useful. You can buy 1 share from the US market.
The broker in Singapore typically allows you to trade US stocks. However, they do charge quite a premium for the commission. But as I don’t really have the time to manage multiple accounts across multiple platforms, I have decided to stick to just one i.e. DBS. Some of my friends are using US based trading platform where they charge really really low commission fees thus if you plan to trade quite frequently in US stocks, you may want to check them out.
I found these articles, that may be useful for you.
