Hi readers, hope you are doing ok or better, given the situation regarding COVID-19 remains elevated since blowing up in May 2021.

From this portfolio update onwards, I have also revised to show portfolio performance in terms of quarterly update.

But I'm happy to arrive at where I am as of 1Q2021 - you'll see why when you read the ..read more

Happy New Year, Readers! 2020 finally came to a close - With the ongoing Covid-19 situation, it was a year unlike any others compared to the years before. Many faced difficulty, be it individual or businesses alike, and if it weren't for government intervention, it could have been far worse. Those that managed to brace themselves and come out stronger. And there are some who managed to seize the opportunity, in the form of the market crash, to bring their financial target years ahead - well done to those that have had their efforts bore fruit. In a surprise move, I have decided to liquidate my ..read more
