My Portfolio Jun26

Summary for June 2026












My Portfolio @ End of Jun26













Jun26 was not a good month as my portfolio lost 3.5% and KLCI retreated 1.1%. 

All the stocks in my portfolio either dropped or remained unchanged in this month except KFIMA which rose 2.6%.

JHM fell heavily at 18.6%, probably next quarter's result might not be good.

Hiaptek also dropped 9% due to a poor FY26Q3 result. Its quarter revenue and operating profit actually improved both YoY and QoQ but the share of profit of its JV dropped tremendously from RM70.6mil to merely RM6.2mil QoQ.

The poor performance of its JV (Eastern Steel) was mainly due to forex loss despite a steady operating performance.

Overall, the steel price still stays soft which is not good to Hiaptek's own business.

My Portfolio Apr26

 Summary of April 2026













Portfolio @ End of Apr26














Although US/Israel & Iran agreed to ceasefire and negotiate since 8 Apr26, both parties try to take control of the Strait of Hormuz.

Traffic through the strait remains much disrupted, causing the crude oil price to stay high.

The Brent crude oil price once fell below USD90/barrel but rebounded to USD120/barrel. Currently it is hovering around the USD110 mark.

UAE announced that it will quit OPEC starting May26, and will increase its daily production without OPEC's restriction.

UAE is the 4th largest oil producer among OPEC+ countries. The increasing supply can only be felt after the Strait of Hormuz is fully opened though.

My Portfolio Mac26

 Summary of March 2026












Portfolio @ End of Mac26














On the last day of Feb26, someone decided to start a war and the stock market plummeted in Mac26 as a result.

Initially many people thought that US & Israel war on Iran will end swiftly within a week or two but now it seems like it might drag on for months.

Stock market in the world suffers due to the fear of inflation & economy slowdown caused by the escalating crude oil price.

As Iran closes the Strait of Hormuz which is responsible for 20% of the world's oil & gas passage, Brent crude oil price surged toward USD120/barrel from USD72/barrel before the war. 

Currently it stays above USD100/barrel while there is still fear that oil & gas facilities in the region might get destroyed further.
