Portfolio Update

Sorry for the late update. Was busy with mypart time work and business side of things. As well as being busy with exams the past 2 weeks and not able to update much.

ST Engineering (S63)1003.19
Total Value7141

- So far, No new changes to the equities so far. Still waiting for a good chance to get more STI ETFs.
As for Starhub, have been thinking awhile if I should just sell it and convert it to 200 shares of STI ETF by topping up abit more. 

-Biggest holding, Fraser Commercial Trust. I'm having a lot of faith in them, despite the slowing market and office rates, they seem to prevail due to less volatile Grade B office rental rates. Expecting an upside for this.

UPDATES: 
I've placed additional $5000 into the Bank Of China's SmartSaver Plan, This is done through my mum. Where they provide monthly payouts of interest (3.55% P.A.(Compounded = approx 3.6% P.A
). This is good because of its risk-free nature, and when you need the money, you are able to take it out as it is not earmarked like fixed deposits. And also there is already $10000 inside where my mum saved for me since young, but I'm not taking into account the $10000 for my total portfolio worth.
Approximately : 15000 x (0.036) = $540 expected interest to be received. RISK FREE!

My goal for this year is to save up to $25000. I started this year at around $11000. 3 Months in, I'm around 15000 now. $10000 to go! Last year managed to save $11000 with the help of scholarship which provided $3000. 

Thank you for reading.
