reit rally extended.

Yaeh!\
\\

STRONG ebound!

Those who bought last week made even more money in RM terms as it breached 3.00

Indeed, last 2 weeks dip gave me an opportunity to buy back some of the reits i sold previously at lower price... Now the yield is much more reasonable, with many having yield of more than 7%... Previously, hard to find one due to high price...

Still some good picks around... Shop more

yes, think it can rally a bit more.

but happy enough with last purchases.

all sgd used up. wait for next div round...

was waiting for another 5% retreat to load........alas.......

Relax,... it's not easy to time the mkt,... if I knew that the SG REITs would dip and then recover in a few days, I would have sold all my ASx, convert into the SGD even at the current high rates, and the buy-up all the REITs at the point of dipping. Hind-sight investment is too easy....

i bought on on the down turn........but hoping that it goes down another 5%

OKay, then you would have made something already since the price would have come up by now compared to your earlier price bought at downturn. YOu were expecting the price to dip further so that you can average down your price further, and then profit more.

Count your blessings that you bought on the way down. Otherwise, if you have waited for it to dip further before making the first purchase, you may not be able to catch any units before the rebound.

Like i mentioned before, the retreat in prices enable my target yields to be made, so i bought first tranche.
i planned to buy in 3 tranches.....this 1st one.....another 5% retreat..........then hoping for the BIG down!

Same here. Failed to buy more when it was down. Now up already, feel very sayang why I didn't buy more

u can never buy enough when low and good, but very easy to buy too much when high and no good, right?

hehe... we hv all been there.

Again,.. looking at hindsight is always the perfect vision. So,.. don't look back at what's already happened. There will always be another chance.

What I have experienced back in 2007/8 was I need to have the targeted REIT bounce up and down a few times, before I gather the courage the load-up more when it was down, knowing that it will bounce up again, and will never fall all the way into liquidation.

This is the valuable part of 'having been there'.

You need more observation with your targeted counters to build the confidence !

because when it is down.. TAKUT mah...

That's the reason i focused on the potential yields, instead of looking at the bounce!

That's right - when it is down, we start asking ourselves : is there something wrong with this counter ? But do have another little tinkle in the back of your mind, being : a falling tide will lower all boats, and a rising tide will raise all boats, be they good or bad boats.

If you are able to recognise the bounces, you will make a higher yield, collect more DPU at lower prices and increase your margin-of-safety in the counters that you hold.
