February 2018 Portfolio Performance Report for SG market -0.62% YTD +85.32% Overall

We had a volatile February this year. STI dropped from 3533 at the close of January to a low of 3377 on 9th February and reversed upwards to end the month at 3517, posting a slight drop of 0.45%.  The key reason is rising interest rates in the US with the benchmark 10 years Treasury yield reaching a high of 2.95% which ignited a sell-of in the US equity market to the correction level for a brief moment - a correlated SG market was not spared as well. My system's SG portfolio experienced a drop of 8.50% erasing all the gains in January to post a YTD time weighted return of -0.62%. It is due to the system unloading when it sees potential risks in the market downturn. Overall time weighted return since inception (from June 2016) is now standing at 85.32%.

Currently the portfolio is holding about 75% cash. It will deploy if the market recovery is confirmed. But so far, the marker does not look like it is recovering good enough. I will talk more about how the system identifies potential risks in the market in my upcoming posts. Meanwhile, cash is king.
