I stick to 10 counters max... and sometimes it force you to make a choice. If you want to buy something you like, you need to let go of another one. 

Mr Young said he liked hotel owner CDL Hospitality Trusts, data centre landlord Keppel DC Reit and office owners Keppel Reit and Mapletree Commercial Trust, "to name a few".

Mine was accumulated since 2011, and last bought in April 2013. I'm at a 20% loss in terms of capital, but with the divvies collected throughout the years,...I'm stll at a slight positive after factoring in the capital loss,...

No. Not yet. It's done well the last qtr. If it repeats or better this qtr, I may buy some more.

You are here: Home / Investing / Shares & Derivatives / DPU plunged at Keppel DC REIT.
DPU plunged at Keppel DC REIT.

Most of us are holding this..

dated 21 mar 2017.

KDC DPU plunged because of dilution of new shares issued that needed to fund the new acquisition in the last Q of 2016

While the newly acquisition properties was expected to be finalised and only start to contribute income in the first Q of 2017.

UMS and Parkway LIFE ran further away,... FLIT is edging away,... can't buy anymore !

Bro,... it's late morning now,................have you managed to buy anything with a bargain ? I have not !!! My targetted ctrs did not drop !!!!!!!!!!! You have been aiming for today, right ?

Just a side question here : has anybody heard that come June 1st this year, the IRAS and the banks in Singapore will submit a report to our Lembaga Hasil detailing the holdings and assets that Malaysian citizens hold in SG ?

Bro,... better to focus on the ASX ! SGX is too expensive now,... and rules are getting tighter and tighter,... Furthermore, I heard this morning that MAS intends to let the SGD appreciate in their April mtg soon !

how can it turn red leh?  All of us here waiting to buy...

djia future now falling.. See if sales gonna happen or not...

I think most of us use a SG bank account + SG broker.
Only exception is AVFAN. I think he uses Cimb iTrade from Malaysia. Kena charge I think maintenance fees.
 

I know there are extra fees from Malaysian side for buying foreign stocks right?

This was what I managed to dig   Hope it help you 

Btw, I remember he said he got maintenance fees. That's why he keep his S-reits only to 5. Best to ask cimb and see. 

wah.... from 2013??? Thank you!!!!!!   
have to really give you a LIKE!!

I'm familiar with the fee structures in Singapore as I've read that up ages ago, it's just that I wasn't familiar with trades from the malaysian side. Thanks!

My view is start with malaysia platform first. Much easier.

Broker fees and other cost is not the deciding factor for your return. It's much less than 1% difference

The platform I am using, itrade@CIMB, is charging SGD 10 per dividend / per stock. So if a REIT is paying 4 times dividend per year, it cost SGD 40 per annum to "maintain" that particular REIT... So far it is quite reasonable/acceptable to me, as I usually don't hold more than 5 reits at any point in time... so cost to me is SGD 200 per year, ie: around RM 600 per year... (actually it is about RM300-400 per year for since some reits that I hold like Croesus, Keppel DC, are paying 2 times dividend per year)
