This month we began to feel the effect of 'sell in may' effect. Well, it kinda come late this year. My portfolio start to take some hit this month. However Aug is a bountiful month when quite a few companies gave out their dividends. Get to collect from a handful of them. I also took advantage of the fall in price of ComfortDelgro and bought in some just before the announcement of their alliance with Uber :)
