Looks like Manulife management is screwing existing shareholders with dilutive share issues.

That's a big jump on UMS ROE!

Not sure. Did not look into the details of the account.

Yes.

That is true.

Wondering if the shifting to Penang has contributed to this?

UMS at 95.5 cents. Anyone interested?

53 cents???? wow!

Floor coming out from under UMS!

WE may still see 70 cents yet!

ECC has come down a bit in price. But its affected by the rise in rates as with all CEFs.
But its keeping up with its dividend distribution for next 3 months

They normally announce for 3 months



Ex-Dividend Date Record Date Payable Date
Amount per commonshare
April 11, 2018 April 12, 2018 April 30, 2018 $0.20
May 10, 2018 May 11, 2018 May 31, 2018 $0.20
June 11, 2018 June 12, 2018 June 29, 2018 $0.20

The 45 cents last was a SPecial dividend on top of the Normal monthly dividends.

Meaning last year I reaped $2.40 + 0.45 = $2.85 in total for 2017

No.

I mentioned earlier.
'
Next qtr starts in July. The announcement will follow in early july.

Cannot find on their website any announcement of dividends in June?

Thanks Hans

A little too late for Croesus.

Still having problem to find home for the Croesus proceeds!

Yeah

My SGD has been strengthening since 2.30 vs MYR.

When I first moved my investments in 2009, it was to hedge against the MYR and at the same time earn dividends, thus SReits.
Those days, AIMS was yielding 10% and Sabana 12%!

Was a good move as I saw how gomen was spending like no tomorrow.

Right timing: STI drifts below 200-day moving average

SINGAPORE (June 15): Here is the daily benchmark Straits Times Index chart for our technical analysis this week:

STI daily (3,356)
The Straits Times Index fell 80 points during the past four trading sessions, breaking below the 200-day moving average at 3,431. The 50- and 100-day moving averages are poised to turn down at the 3,500 level. This is likely to act as resistance during rebounds.



Short-term indicators are oversold with short term stochastics at the bottom of the range. Any rebound is likely to face resistance at 3,500.

ADX has started to rise from a low level, and the DIs are negatively placed, confirming a possible downtrend. Quarterly momentum is forming a downtrend The weekly chart shows a gradual downturn by annual momentum, with its own weighted moving average turning down a well. This suggests that the main uptrend is probably over.

Immediate support appears at 3,338, the April low. A break below this level would indicate a downside measuring objective.

Yeah

We ALL have different objectives.

I am 56 years young. So i am trying to build my DIVIDEND nest. Not so interested in growth companies any more.
SGX allows me to have this and also to hedge against the MYR in devaluation. I have NO confidence ine Msian gomen managing the national economy and fiscal side of the books at all.


SGX has gone through the 3338 support this morning. Be ware .............

Sorry

Did I side track you?

Yeah....I was onto SGX dividends since SGD seems to do well against MYR in the long term.
What's not to like?

Get 10 to 12% yields with forex gains too! BUt those yields are drying up.
Therefore, have to search other avenues to continue to sow and reap more yields, therefore US mkts.
