This is the last portfolio update for the month in the year 2013. Before we know it, we'll soon head out into the year 2014 and be welcoming the horse year :)

This month, I've done a couple of early year end shopping for a couple of my favorite list of stocks: ST Engineering, Ascott and Mapletree Logistic Trust.

I've bought the first round of ST Engineering at a price of $3.80. As mentioned in my previous post, I think it is fair to say that it is trading at fair historical valuation, nothing sort of compelling buy everyone is shouting for. Earnings growth has disappoint so far this financial year and it looks to stay the same in the 4th quarter. Having said that, I am expecting EPS to remain flat for this year and dividends to remain at $168/lot, giving in excess of 90% payout to investors.

I've also finally received the results for my Ascott Reit rights allocation this month. I applied fully for my 2,200 rights and also successfully received my 1,800 excess allocation application at $1 a share, bringing my Ascott allocation up to my top 5 holdings.

Last but not least, I've also open a small position in Mapletree Logistic Trust (MLT) at $1. MLT, having the most geographical industrial location and longest lease structure as compared to other industry Reit, is giving a greater earnings visibility of their future earnings. With more than 7% yield, I am watching this by opening a small position.

That's it!!! I'll be reviewing my investment for the year 2013 in my next post and the upcoming goals and resolution for 2014. Until then, hope everyone is well and take care to celebrate the festive season :)
