Jun2023 Dividend/Interest received from my investment account is about SGD $13.2k.After adding up the dividend and interest for the last 6 months, 2023 first half investment income hit $51.5K. The more than usual increase in dividend/interest received in 2023 is due to the new bond investment from my retirement account which has been in cash allocation for a long time. My liquid net worth distribution has always been showing almost >30% cash allocation in the last few years. As I mentioned in my previous few blogs, I have invested about 68 % in investment grade and US treasury bonds to lock up the higher interest rate and another 10% into various dividend ETF. The rest is put into short term money market fund which currently yield 4-5% . I am assuming that the FED interest rate hike will end soon and locking into higher long term yield will provide more secure passive income. With this new investment, my cash holding will be dropping below 15% of my liquid net worth but it will provide an additional USD10K passive income in the next 12 months. After accounting for the new dividend flow from my retirement account, my monthly distribution chart has been revised upward for the last 6 months. I am also expecting more 5 figures monthly dividend /interest received in the coming months.
Investment Portfolio YTD gain including dividend is 3.64% and liquid net worth YTD gain is around 6.12%
Trade in June.
I bought back First Pacific 142.hk , added a new HKSE counter 1651.hk (Tsugami Precision) and increased my stakes in 6823.hk, 1.hk, 267.hk, 86.hk. The HKSE trade buy in June is primarily financed by selling off 270.hk and 1339.hk. I have continued to increase my LSE portfolio by adding idap.l ETF and BATS. No action in SGX as I am expecting more right issues. I will be conserving some cash to participate in the right issues.
