LMIR: Bought some nil-paid rights.

Friday, November 11, 2011

I made my first transaction in the stock market since my return to Singapore. I bought some LMIR nil-paid rights at 5.6c each. Some might ask why not buy LMIR units instead as they are trading at 38.5c each cum distribution of 1.06c now.


At a conversion price of 31c per rights, getting nil-paid rights now at 5.6c means a total price of 36.6c. With an estimated annualised DPU of 3.26c, post rights issue and acquisitions, we are looking at a distribution yield of 8.9% and a very low gearing of under 10%. I think this is pretty attractive.

Now, if we were to buy the units at 38.5c and secure the 1.06c income distribution, our cost (to make a fair comparison) would be 38.5c - 1.06c = 37.44c. Compared to buying the nil-paid rights, it is a tad pricier (at about 2.3% more).

For anyone who would prefer to secure the said income distribution for any reason, the REIT goes XD on 16 Nov.

Last day of trading of nil-paid rights is 18 Nov. I will wait to see if I could collect more on the cheap.

Tea with AK71: A short break.

Thursday, November 10, 2011

I have not been blogging for a few days. I did not even look at the stock market.

My portfolio is not a trading one. It is basically one that generates regular and reliable passive income. So, it is not unthinkable to just leave it alone while I take a short break.

I did receive a SMS from my broker today regarding LMIR's rights issue and how much I should transfer to subscribe to it. Other than that, I have been out of touch.

Where did I go the last few days? Here is a clue:



I might be blogging about my trip in my travel blog over the next few weeks. Look out for it. :)
