Thomas Su Diary - 4 May 09

In: Investment Diary

Last week was a bit REIT week – with new updates from property groups such as GPT, Westfields, Stockland and Goodman – the results were mixed, but overall, they were better than expectations, and some came up with surprises such as Goodman which had attracted new investment which would lower its debt ratio once again, a positive sign for the company.  
GPT also lowered its profit guidance, and declared the dividend for the quarter will be 1.6 cent per unit, adding to a yearly basis, it is still 14.5% for the year based on today’s price – at least there was no more losses, and large write-downs.
oodman, on the other hand, as expected had suspended its half yearly dividend, although a mysterious financier had appeared and has been positive to Goodman’s share price.

Westfield and Stockland also reported their resulted, there were no real new negative surprises, dividend policy for these companies remain quite vague and it is difficult to assess what types of the dividends they will be paying until later stage. But summarizing the results, it appears that investors can assume that the dividend yield for property trusts this year could be somewhere between 7% to 10% on average, after adjusted dividends announced by the companies recently.

Mar 03, 2009 – Money Cat: Thomas, you have been advocating about IT stocks, many investors perceive Australia as a country with primary resources and commodities, does Australia have good IT talent?
Thomas Su: That is a common mis-perception, Australia is rich in resources - and last 4 years, most people have their attentions on the booming resources market. I think that is quite sad in the way, IT companies have actually enjoyed enormous boom time in Australia last few years.
Let me give you some examples - first on the trends:
1. Australia is one of the largest IT outsourcing markets in the world, in fact, it is one of the largest IT outsourcing markets in Asia - Federal and State Governments also its large banks have awarded multi-billion dollar IT services contracts in Australia in the past.
The direct result is arrival of multinational IT outsourcers such as IBM, EDS, HP, CSC, Fujitsu, they all have very large presence in Australia.
The 2nd result is demand for sub-contract works - many of these IT Outsourcers sub-contract out to local Australian IT service providers.

What a day - I fell off the chair when I saw Sunland Group went to 63c, I missed 25% return in a day - fell like screaming and crying…I sold them when it was 45c, because it went from 30c to 45c in 2 days, it was rising too fast I thought - plus I also received divivend - the net return was 50% in a week - I thought that was good enough!!!
Oh, well, money is money, profit is profit - good to make a nice profit in a very short week. Across the board, our short positions have finally regained some profit - warnings from automaker industry in US is once again dominating the headline - but for many investors, they have “mentally” written off these companies already - I did - but the real consequence is the impact on the job market.
Yesterday, there was another news on Chinese investing into Australian resources, this time, it is Terramin, a zinc exploration company - the Chinese Government sponsored investment fund has once again made their move in securing zinc in the global market, it is also one of the reasons it was interested in Oz Minearals as well. Zinc is an important industrial mineral, and it is a mineral that is not found in China, and has to rely on imports. As such, I am also looking at Kagara Zinc, another major zinc producer in Australia, and see if there is any scope of Chinese investments coming in?

The US market has finally retreated first time in many days - in the way, that’s a good news, taking some breath. The current crisis seems to be spreading into Eastern European markets which will have setbacks onto the overall European markets - as such, there could be further weakness in EUR, in my view, this means another reason for some investors to switch from currencies into gold.
This week is another week of busy planning for us - in terms of using CFDs to capture dividends, following a good success of several plays last week such as Photon Group.
This week we will be looking at the followng companies and see if we can repeat the success - of course, it also depends on the market volatility.
1) Seek is going ex-dividend paying 6c per share - but the current economic situation may not be favorable to Seek, so, we will need to assess the situation.
2) David Jones, which is going ex-dividend, paying 11c per share
3) Devine, a property group which is going 3c per share, which has been rumoured it maybe eventually a takeover target

Gloucerster Coal 
Singapore based Noble Group said it was attempting a takeover bid for Gloucester Coal Limited (GCL). The bid was in direct competition to the proposed Whitehaven-Gloucester merger announced on 19 February.
Noble Group noted that its off market all-cash takeover offer valued Gloucester at $4.85 per share, compared to the Whitehaven deal which implied a value of $3.65.
Noble, which already owns 21.7% of Gloucester, said its only major condition to the takeover was that the Gloucester-Whitehaven merger does not proceed.
Woolworths
Although it misses the analysts’ forecast, WOW’s results are still quite impressive, especially compared to rival Coles’ which is owned by Wesfarmers.
Woolworths shares hit a three-month high this week, up about 21 percent from a low set in November.
The shares have outperformed the broader market .AXJO, which is down about 10 percent this year, as investors bet Woolworths will benefit as consumers become more price conscious and overall retail sales slow. Wesfarmers, on the hand, has lost around 50% in share value in the same corresponding period.

Living on Dividends!

In: Investment Diary

It’s the ASX stock reporting time and loads of dividends have been declared - this has been the best “season” for dividends - and this year is no exception. I have been virtually living on dividends last few weeks with companies like banks, gaming companies, retail companies all declaring the dividends - and the surprising high yield nature of tech and biotech stocks are also very welcomed!
The REITs continue to lag, and their dividends have been washing down the toilet this year.
I recall this time 2 years - I had 35% of my entire portfolio tied on REITs, as they have been fantastic - and I had that for many many years - and constantly getting between $6000 to $15000 a year just from REITs - this used to be my best passive income source.
With the REITs sector completely smashed - but on the way crawling back - I am finding difficult to find the “Replacement Sector” - thanks to tech stocks in Australia, I have now managed to rebuild my portfolio back to 7% yield across the board.
