After
much promotion and ramblings of The Bedokian Portfolio, I have decided to put
it to the test.
To
make it more personalised, let us name the owner of the portfolio as Bob. Bob
had finished reading The Bedokian
Portfolio and would want to use SGD30,000 earmarked for investment to
implement it. He would start off as a passive investor and concentrate on the
local market, but as time goes by he would be taking on a more active role and
venture into overseas markets.
Once
in a while in this blog, I would be sharing Bob’s thinking and analysis on
certain investment decisions and transactions, with guidelines from The Bedokian Portfolio.
I
will be using an online portal called SGXCafe to do up the demonstration
Bedokian Portfolio. It is a good site to tabulate and record your investments
and/or trades on a portfolio basis.
Why
not use my own Bedokian Portfolio, you may ask. There are a couple of reasons
why: Firstly, I want the demonstration portfolio to start off from a clean
slate; mine was not, since I had transited from a trading portfolio to an
investment one over the course of some six months. Secondly, I would want to
use a portfolio that new investors could relate to, and for seasoned ones
looking for an alternative methodology.
The
demonstration portfolio will start on 3 Jan 2017, the first market-trading day
of the new year, so do keep a lookout.
Last
but not least, the usual disclaimer applies, and being a long-term investment,
there may not be changes for weeks or even months in the portfolio. The
Bedokian Portfolio’s time horizon is at least 10 years1, so please
bear with it.
