Cash - Closing Status 23 May

Received a cheque in the mail this week from Mun Siong for $15 which is 1.1% of returns based on my investment costs in it.  I have no plan to increase or selling my 10 lots holding of it at the moment.  l am just taking this investment as if it is a bank deposit. 

UMS is currently having a CD status.  UMS will go XD on 9 July and payment will be made on 26 July.  I have sold all of it away this week from my Cash portfolio in order to collect its dividend in advance.  Profit made was at $157 and it is 30% more than the expected dividends which would have been at $120 (12 lots x dividend rate $0.01).  Will re-invest into UMS if its price weakens. 

l have divested Telechoice 20 lots for a profit of $568 and this is about 11% away from its two year's worth of annual dividend; last paid annual dividend rate $0.016 x 20 lots x 2 years x 89% = $568.  Will re-invest into Telechoice at lower share price level.
