Reminder: Saizen REIT Warrants expiring soon

JW — Thu, 24 May 2012 17:51:00 +0000

Just a friendly reminder.

The warrants for Saizen REIT expires on 1st June 2012.

You may want to see how to exercise your warrants from this link:

How to Exercise Your Warrant Options (SGX)

At the moment, my average cost of 0.161 is in the red. Dividends of 0.0189 has been received so far. :(

What do I expect after 1st June 2012?

I’m pretty sure that Saizen will follow in the footsteps of AIMSAMPIREIT. There should be a share consolidation soon.

I’m prepared for a 5 for 1 or 10 for 1 share consolidation. I’m expecting a 5 for 1.

Peace out.

Saizen REIT: To buy or not to buy?

AK71 — Wed, 23 May 2012 14:43:00 +0000

Regular readers would know my whole story with Saizen REIT. I remain invested in the REIT for various reasons which I believe are still valid.

This blog post is to answer a question which I have received from readers, friends and family alike. Is it a good time to buy more units of Saizen REIT?

This is a question which I would avoid giving a direct answer to. There is a great deal of subjectivity.

However, I would present some numbers here and you decide.

The annualised DPU is some 1.22c based on the last payout. At 13.6c a unit, the distribution yield is some 8.97%. Sounds good?

However, bearing in mind that its warrants will expire on the 1st of next month, I expect the warrants to be fully exercised within these few days. The exercise price is 9c. This would increase the units in issue by …

Stop your Facebook IPO Dream and Join Goldman Sachs

Ivan Guan — Tue, 22 May 2012 01:40:13 +0000

Although IPO mania is commonly seen in financial market, the global enthusiasm of Facebook IPO is rare and massive. Months before Facebook listing, people started rubbing their hands to get a slice of the pie. Facebook Pre-IPO shares were trading at $40 at www.sharepost.com. There were even funds set up and marketed as “Facebook fund”, which is in my opinion, just another financial scam.

After all, who does not know Facebook? The story of a young entrepreneur worked his way out from a computer lab and became a billionaire before 30 years old is so sexy and real, the stock is just like a new Lamborghini car which you can touch and feel. If LinkedIn can double its share price on the first of trading, why shouldn’t Facebook?

Unfortunately, the dream never came true. During the second day of trading, the shares sank 11.3% to $33.90 …

My cost of living in the United Kingdom- Rent and Utilities

Mon, 21 May 2012 22:44:00 +0000

In this post I shall touch on the issue of rent and housing. Next year, I am staying with three other friends in a ~1,200 sq ft 3 storey house opposite the university’s main building. Our rent per month for this house, excluding bills, is GBP 1,120. That works out to be roughly 64.50 GBP pppw.

Now, this rent is slightly below average for the area; this is because we only have two toilets whereas other more expensive houses have en-suite toilets (this means every room has a toilet).

This area is very much more expensive than outlying areas in Yorkshire where I live, as it is in the city centre and one does not require use of a car.

If one were to look about 5 miles (8km) out of town, the rent falls drastically to 43 GBP pppw (for a four bedroom house, two toilets with a …

Last Friday, I was invited by Lim & Tan to do an investment presentation on the Investment Strategies for the Singapore market in 2012. The slides can be downloaded from our website.

The key messages during my talk were:

a) the problems in the EU would take many years to resolve and we are likely to see problems surfacing from individual members of the EU every now and then – bottom line – more market volatility in the months ahead

b) if you cannot stomach the volatility than shift about 50% of your portfolio into defensive yield plays. I also provided a list of yield stocks or investments that investors can look at for the …

My cost of living in the United Kingdom- introduction

Sun, 20 May 2012 22:51:00 +0000

I had an interesting discussion with people recently regarding the cost of living in the United Kingdom.
As some may know, I am currently a medical student in England, but I am not in London.

I want to dispel the oft-held notion that the United Kingdom is an expensive country to live in. In actual fact, it is not. I would daresay excluding London, it is cheaper (even before taking into account higher wages in UK) to live in than Singapore. (Doctors earn more in Singapore nett, but that’s an anomaly; most other professionals earn more here than in Singapore)

Over the next few posts, which will be as and when I have time, I will try to explain what my cost of living is. Readers can then draw their own conclusions. Of course, certain things are more expensive here, but I think overall, it is cheaper to stay in …

Below is my compilation of companies which had under performed the STI since 3 May. Data was sourced from Bloomberg on 17 May. My criteria in compiling the list is also listed below.

Some companies such as Olam and China Minzhong are all time oversold based on RSI (i.e. since listing). Several of them are also trading at their 52 week low.

Food for thought.

Stock Chart: Biosensors!

Dou — Sun, 20 May 2012 12:56:49 +0000

On Friday, Biosensors re-test the resistance at $1.20 and closed at $1.20 with LOW volume of 2.11 million shares traded.

A doji star occurred (where a doji gaps above or below the previous candle). This often signals a reversal with confirmation occurring on the next bar.

A long lower shadow occurred. This is typically a bullish signal (particularly when it occurs near a low price level, at a support level, or when the security is oversold).

RSI & MACD are bullish as MACD lines about to perform a “golden cross”.

Important Resistance of Biosensors: $1.20

Immediate Support of Biosensors: $1.11

Currently prices are well below the 20/50/100/200 MA.

For the past 8 trading sessions, prices have been trying to consolidate between the support of $1.11 and $1.20.

The support at $1.11 is expected to be strong.
