EUPE Joins Belfield & Merdeka 118

 

Since the euphoria in the second half of 2020, the stock market has not been doing well for the past one and a half year.

It seems like my best investment so far since 2021 is the property I invested in, which is Sunway Belfield. 

Of course it's still too early to make any conclusion to this investment. Anything can happen down the road and it might still be possible to turn into a bad investment.

Tower A & B of Sunway Belfield are almost fully sold. Tower C was launched in November last year and the launching price was more than 15% higher for the smallest unit compared to Tower A.

I'd expect at least 30% appreciation in price once the construction is completed in 2024 or 2025. This is the reason I invested in Sunway Belfield in the first place.

In other words, I bought the smallest unit at around RM750 psf and I hope it can reach RM1000 psf once it's completed.

One thing for sure is, there will be much more supply of residential units in this Belfield or Kampung Attap area in the near future.

My Portfolio May22

 

Summary of May 2022

Stock Portfolio @ End of May22

Since reaching its height in Feb22, my stock portfolio value has been gradually shrinking non-stop like a leaking pipe.

May is the worst month to my portfolio so far this year with a loss of 4.2%. The main culprit is the 17% decline of Maybulk while most tech-related stocks also suffered in this month.

Year-to-date loss stands at 9% but it's still better than year 2016 & 2018 which suffered loss of 14.7% and 13.5% respectively at this stage.

There seems to be nothing special happening in May, just the old stories of inflation, US rate hike and Russia-Ukraine war. 

Brent oil price continues its uptrend and it touched USD124/bbl in the last day of May.

From the financial performance of local listed companies, I feel that most of them do not do very well.

For those companies in my portfolio, I think the latest quarterly results of Uchitec, MFCB, Rhonema, JHM, Master and LEESK are good. 

The rest are so-so.
