Trading or investing

Like many other ppl who trade, the thrill of making huge profits within a short span of time intoxicated me. Somehow is a addiction, like taking drugs, once we get the hang of it ,we cant shake it off. For a while, i was obsessed in making risky trades and it did reward me well but sometimes i got whack down too. However it gave me a new perspective on how we should grow our money in a sensible and conservative manner. I will like to share 2 of my speculative trades here; Genting SP & UPP. Genting SP, the well known stock for punters. I short(sell first) the stock at $1.77 and cover back (buy back)at $1.74. A gain of $0.03 gave me a net profit of $2070.45 in a duration of 1 hour and 14 mins. Of course, there are seasoned traders who can earn more than this. Now we move to UPP. I bought UPP at $0.425 ,hoping it will rally up but it did not. To cut loss ,I sold off at $0.405. A loss of $0.02 resulted a loss of $2264.21 in a duration of 1 hour.

Lee's clarified the decision not to provide foods was not monetary issue but instead his intention is to encourages dedicated shareholder to attend the AGM. With regards to donations & Charity works, he uses a Chinese proverb “取之于社会，用之于社会” to emphasize the importance of being a social responsible Corporate Company & 1 % of the Company net profits wil

Frasers Logistics & Industrial Trust

On 11th January 2018, bought 6,000 shares of Frasers Logistics & Industrial Trust at $1.16 per share. I must admit that the price I purchased is rather high. Assuming 7.01 cents distribution payout on Dec 2017 maintains , it yield will be at 6% based on $1.16 purchase price. Rather than leaving the money in the bank to earn meagre interest, I am inclined to deploy into high yielding instruments. This is also my second pure Australia's counter beside AusNet Services which operates it business in Australia too but in Utilities sector. FLT owns 61 properties in Australia with 99.4% occupancy rate. The WALE is at 6.79 years provide greater certainty for investors who want longer & stable income. 68% of FLT borrowing are at fixed interest rates at the cost of 2.8% pa excluding debt related expenses. Gearing is low at 30.9% which means it has more room for DPU accretive acquisition in the future. FLT tenants are mainly from Manufacturing ,Consumer & Lo
