Divestment
There was no divestment in the non-Strategic section in 2016 but for the Strategic section, Cambridge Industrial Trust was divested in January 2016 for strategic reason (refer here).
Investment
1. Frasers Cpt Trust was added in the non-Strategic section (refer here) in January 2016 at the price of $1.80 (the lowest price level in whole of 2016) but after some strategic mean by acquiring more shares at $0 cost, the eventual holding price is lowered to $1.6314.
2. Unit in First Reit was increased by strategic mean at $0 cost thereby reducing the holding price from $0.6188 to $0.609
3. Unit in MapletreeInd Trust was increased due to scrip dividend thereby reducing the holding price from $0.9176 to $0.8537
4. Unit in Kep DC Reit was increased due to subscription of preferential offering, thereby increasing the holding price from $0.8719 to $0.9393 as the offering price was above my holding price. There was a question posted to me how I get my holding price at $0.8719 (before the preferential offering) when the IPO price is $0.93 and stock has never traded below $0.93. Well, I managed to acquire some unit at $0 cost thereby reducing the holding price from $0.93 to $0.8719.
5. CapitaR China Trust was added in January (refer here) to the Strategic section
The main reason for my investment portfolio to outperform STI (two year in a row) was due to the Strategic section, those "extra-ordinary soldier" according to Sun Tzu Art of War (孙子兵法之奇兵) which I rebuild my portfolio since 2015 according to Sun Tzu Art of War. The rebuilding process has not completed yet and so far the progress is as follow :-
1. Non-Strategic section is about 65% complete as I still need to make some divestment (partial divestment) to create a more balance portfolio.
2. Strategic section is only 10.82% done. 100% completion is needed in order to see the ultimate effect but with only 10.82%, the market value as of 30th Dec 2016 stood at 11.63% that of the cost of Non-Strategic section. That is to say either I have a 11.63% paper gain or I managed to shelve off 11.63% of the cost of the Non-Strategic section. The cost for the Strategic section currently stood at $0.0398/share up from $0/share in July 2016 due to the subscription of MapletreeCom Trust preferential offering. While I could by strategic mean reduce the cost back to $0 but that is not my priority at the moment and am happy with that low cost too.
3. Dividend section is 93.22% done. However, this section is beyond my control as the amount of dividend given out each year depends on the companies.
4. Cash holding section is 63.78% done and 100% can only be achieved once the Non-Strategic section is 100% done.
The above is the first objective that I set for my Sun Tzu Art of War investment portfolio. I did not set a time frame as to when I want to achieve the objective as I like to do it in a more cautious but confidential way.
