A rising tide lifts all boats indeed. My net investment portfolio jumped by almost +S$100K within 2 months (from S$813K to S$910K) mainly due to the rise of Alibaba AI and Cloud play as well as the revival in Singapore REITs. Gross investment is now at another record high of S$1.179Mil.
1. Portfolio 1- Stocks Held in SGX Central Depository
Not much changes here except for the higher market valuation. Unfortunately, there is very little changes in the amount of projected dividends.
2. Portfolio 2- Margin Purchased Securities
(Note: My margin purchased securities has grown to a sufficient scale to sustain itself and can pay off annual financing charges as well as to gradually pay down the margin loan through the dividends generated.)

Keppel Ltd has been delivering a super impressive profit growth of 25% (if we normalise and exclude the one-off recorded loss for sales of M1) for the 9mth ending 2025. In addition, have subscribed for 5000 excess units of Keppel Date Centre REIT ("KDC") and managed to get all- please see here for the past blog post I made.
3. Portfolio 3 (with Tiger Brokers and MooMoo)
(Venture into higher risk as well as capital growth stocks here)
Have foraged into an additional new stock BYD here that is manufacturer of EV cars and batteries. BYD is one of the few contenders out there (besides Toyota and CATL) that is on the verge of successful mass production of the next generation of EV solid state battery. Solid state batteries is the next stage evolution for EV or arguably the “holy grail” of EV which will enhance mileage by at least 50% and significantly improved recharging time-please refer to my previous post in 2018 regarding the first working prototype of solid state battery. Unfortunately, the mass production has been filled with enormous technical challenges hence mass market adoption projection is expected to be around 2027 or even 2030.
4. Portfolio 4 (Endowus Unit Trusts & Other Investments)
I have added investment into 2 new unit trusts via Endowus, that is the (i) Allspring Global Equity Enhanced Income Fund and the (ii) Franklin Gold and Precious Metals Fund.
Parting Thoughts
Currently, my growth strategy investment is on Alibaba and BYD in China market. I continue to stay away from the US market (except for a small stake in United Healthcare Group). Overall, I am still committed to my dividend passive income strategy and continue to build it up gradually by increasing stakes in Unit Trusts to ensure sufficient diversification.
Ok. that's all for today Folks. Have a great week ahead!
