My overall portfolio value as well as dividend stream has grown considerably since 2014. Besides injecting fresh capital, consistently re-investing my dividends has started to make an impact. Compounding growing dividends over long periods of time has been the cornerstone of my investing strategy. I believe this strategy is probably one of the best 'wealth-creating machines' on earth, especially for the ordinary man on the street. Tried and tested.

Thank you.

Hi dw got thought of getting back into starhub and aims amp? I remembered this was your biggest positions.
Hi Pipping Cafe,
Yup, both of them used to be core positions in my portfolio a couple of years back. In fact, I was vested in all 3 local telcos at one time. Unfortunately, there was fundamental and structural changes to this industry. First, the competition from the 4th telco will affect earnings growth. Second, the younger generation doesn't watch cable anymore. They prefer streaming services like Netflix. But 'hubbing' is a big part of Starhub's strategy over the years. Both these reasons led me to believe that dividends would be cut and I was right. Singtel's dividend payout is also looking pretty borderline sustainable. So nope, I have never thought of getting back into telcos. They have not been in my watchlist for a long time.
Now, let's move on to AIMS AMP. This is an alright industrial reit. But the thing is, I have long decided to transition from 'alright' reits. I prefer to focus on quality reits from CapitaLand, Frasers, Mapletree, Keppel. That's why I divested all my '2nd-Tier' reits like First REIT, Cache Logistics, AIMS AMP etc. Since I am holding reits long-term, might as well go for the '1st-Tier' ones.
Thanks for the reply , no wonder all ur holdings is tier 1 REITs.
Did you do the dividend reinvest here? Reinvest also incurred commission and other charges to be minus off?
seems like reits this time round also sold down
you plan to cash out? or hold? or add more reits?
please share your thoughts and action on your reits heavy portfolio thanks
Thanks for posting your comments on the first-tier reits for long term :)) Do agree with you.
Hi, dividend warrior
What are your thoughts on holding on to a mixture of reits, etf and stocks? Both foreign and local such as s&p 500, visa or even the sti index.
