My Dividend Income for Oct 2017

Once again, it's time to review my dividend income results for Oct 2017.

Stock Portfolio (Cash)

Similarly to Sep, my dividends for Oct is also experiencing a slight drop compared to previous year. This is mainly due to the absence of dividends from Suntec Reit and Soilbuild Business Space REIT. I sold their company shares this year.

These are the companies that will be distributing dividends to me.

Frasers Centrepoint Trust - $89.10
Cache Logistics Trust - $318.987
Frasers Commercial Trust - $305.4965
Duty Free International Ltd - $75
Total - $788.58

Cache Logistics Trust is currently my largest holding. My top 3 holdings are as shown below.


A piece of  good news for Cache shareholders, Cache has settled their lease dispute amicably with Schenker Spore. Finally, my Cache position has chance to turn positive.


More dividend on the way for Cache unitholders

Bond Portfolio (Cash Inv, Unit Trust)

My Unit Trust bond portfolio sees an increase in dividend compared to previous month. In Oct 2017, I received $983.61 in the form of units compared to $966.17 in Sep. The increase was a result of my monthly purchase of UOBAM United Asian High Yield Bond Fund.


Total dividend income for Oct 2017 = $788.58 + $983.61 = $1722.19
Total dividend income for Sep 2017 = $144.66 + $966.17 = $1110.83

Options Trading Result


I also have an Options contract expire in Oct which netted me USD$525 in profits.

Oct 2017 Options Trading Result = USD$525 - $48.44 (comm + fees) = USD476.56

October 2017 has been a fruitful month compared to Sep. I am expecting a drop in dividend income for Nov and Dec. I will be on the lookout for companies and opportunities to buy more shares in the meantime. Stay tune!
