I am not an investment professional.

I encourage you to do your own independent "due diligence" on any idea that I write about, because I could be and probably am wrong.

Nothing written here is an invitation to buy or sell any particular stock.

At most, I am handing out an educated guess as to what the markets may do.

The market will always find a new way to make a fool out of me (and maybe, even you!).

Even the best strategies of the past fail, sometimes spectacularly, when you least expect it.

I am not immune to that, so please understand that any past success of mine will probably be followed by failures

Hi brattzz,

It is not evenly distributed.

In an ideal scenario, I want it to be evenly distributed and have around 20-25 counters.

Unfortunately, some are over-weight, some are underweight, I have been meaning to take stock and re-balance, but keep putting it off.

The current weights are

Altamir SCA (LTA) 0.79%
BAE Systems 1.25%
BRC Asia 1.27%
Capitaland 2.26%
CBK-DE (Commerzbank AG) 0.78%
Centrica 1.65%
CIMB Asean 40 ETF 0.96%
CNP Assurances (CNP) 1.03%
DBS 1.23%
DBXT CSI300 ETF (KT4) 2.17%
FJ Benjamin 1.29%
Homeserve 1.65%
HPH Trust 2.46%
IES 2.34%
Interserve (IRV) 1.36%
iShares Barclays USD Asia High Yield Bond Index ETF (O9P) 1.88%
Kcom Group 1.01%
Keppel Corp 7.53%
Keppel REIT 0.82%
Ladbrokes 0.73%
Lans Van Lanschot 1.23%
Lectra (LSS) 2.73%
Lyxor Europe ETF (JC5) 2.15%
Lyxor H.S.I ETF (A9B) 1.36%
Lyxor Japan 10US$ (CW4) 1.05%
Mensch Und Machine (MUM) 0.81%
NN Group (NN) 0.76%
Noble Group 1.77%
NOL 5.99%
Olam 1.80%
Religare H Trust 2.55%
Royal Dutch Shell (RDSA) 1.64%
Sabana REIT 2.80%
SATS 4.22%
SGX 4.98%
SIA 5.88%
ST Engineering 2.54%
STI ETF 2.30%
Tesco (TSCO) 0.96%
Unilever 0.91%
UTV Media Plc (UTV) 0.85%

Hi Thor666,

Funnily, about six months back, I was actually looking for counters in the missing letters as I had too many S.

So, I evaluated Golden Agri,Jardine group, Parkson Retail, XMH, Yeo Hiap Seng and Zagro.

Zagro and Parkson Retail were the two I almost bought, but, then I decided that I was rushing into a decision and to observe for a year and find out more, before I actually buy it.

Cheers

Largely, I see the portfolio news on Google finance sometimes.

But, yes, you are right, it is impossible to keep track of 47, by next year end, I will cut this down to 25 almost equal weighted ideas and around 10 ETFs

I update the prices once a month, or so and then see whether anything has dramatically changed, for example, the Ladbrokes case of loss of some terminals, Tesco's dividend cut etc.

If it changes my short investment idea, very drastically, then, they have no place, get rid of it, profit or loss. This does not occur very often, about once or twice a year.

To give one example, RSA Insurance was one which I held for a while, the investment idea was that it offers a clutch of insurance which is at below book, then they saw a scandal in Ireland, i think, bottom line I was no longer comfortable, holding it, so, out it went.

Another example was Nordion, I held it and doubled up on the way, sadly they were bought out, so, while I did gain 50% on my investment, it was some way short of what I thought they would go to, the idea was they were trading at 7.5$ with cash of around 5. My thesis was that they could double. But, they decided to sell out at around 14.

I am trying to hit annualized return of around 12-14% for a counter, not an exact target price, but, good point, makes sense to have a target price to sell.
