Summary

Received a total of $42.80 of dividends this month. 

Portfolio value increased naturally with market trend but nothing has been added to my income portfolio this month. 

As compared to March, this month is relatively quiet for me. 

Queued for MCT and Suntec Reit but the order didn't get filled.

Will continue to monitor the market for further additions to portfolio. Funds haven't been fully deployed yet. 

Still of the opinion that the market is bearish. Recent few days of uptrend seems to be driven by short term positive news. 

On the job front, business has slowed to a trickle. Projects and enquiries have literally stopped. 

I'm taking this window to get a relevant certification for my company which will comes in handy when market recovers. 

The number of assistance measures from the government will help businesses in the near term. I'm hopeful my company will qualify for the Job Support Scheme (JSS).
