Wolf Money(portfolio update end August 2022)early release!

Lone Wolf Fund(LWF) Portfolio as at end of August 1.) Cash  *Stocks are not rank in accordance to capital invested .  *Just for sharing. Not an inducement to buy or sell . Commentary The US China tension is causing fiction in world trade. It had been described in an African Proverb “when elephants fight, it’s the grass that suffers”. With competition in play, Pacific, Africa and South East Asia countries used to be “secondary friends” of certain country had been “upgraded” to friends of equal. I can’t speak about my view on Africa and the Pacific Islanders as I knew nothing about them. I am pretty sure when competitions are keen, ASEAN countries will get the extra attention(good and the bad) as World Powers try to win ASEAN over to their side. It is like two groups of primary school kids involved in an argument where both side are equally matched, both sides will want to rope in the less popular kids to join their “gang” to strengthen their point of view. Suddenly the plump an...

I have been stopped out by my trail for CDG. There are also some uncertainty about CDG remaining as a STI component stock and the recent spike in oil is also a concern. I may decide to come back later after the dust had settled. Lone Wolf holds no share in CDG. 1% was added to the portfolio gain due in most part by the dividend declared.

Wolf Bargain(Whisking Bakes)

Image
  (Cafe decked out in purple) (All things in pastel purple give the cafe a sense of calm) Whisking Bakes is a newly opened cafe that specialised in Orh Nee(Yam) focus sweets. Nestled in Crawford Lane,  the cafe was the brain child of former aircrew, Chanel Lee. Her story is truly inspiring, a prime example on how one can turn adversity into new opportunity.   (Yam Tart, the main attraction of the cafe) Back in mid 2020, during the height of covid pandemic, Chanel, the former aircrew was grounded due to lack of flying opportunities as borders of most countries were shut due to covid related travel restrictions. Unable to fly, she decided to start an online business selling Yam Tarts. It was an instant success, she was making 3000 Yam Tarts a week. Gone maybe her job as an aircrew but she is soaring new height with her new cafe. Whisking Bakes was born with the aim of expanding her Taro offerings. There are Taro Mochi Swiss Roll, Taromisu, Taro burnt Cheese Cake and Taro Ca...

Wolf Bargain(Don Don Donki Top 5 bargains)

  Don Don Don Ki is almost everywhere. They had just opened its 12th outlet in Singapore at Waterway Point. I guess we can shop our heart’s content and hear the jingle more regularly “....don don don ki don don don ki......” Who doesn’t love a bargain? These are my top 5 random picks. 1.) Pork Tonkatsu(frozen $10) Three palm size Tonkatsu weighing at least 500g. They are quite tasty. Some white rice and curry makes a sumptuous meal. 2.) Steamed chicken Salad($5.52) and Smoke Salmon Salad($6.71) Big bowl of salad with at least 5 big slices of Chicken breast and many slices of smoked salmon. Perfect for a healthy lunch. 3.) Hidaka Hokkaido Milk 1L($3.90) Big on discount and taste. Drink it, skin white white. 4.) Instant Miso soup ($0.50) A pack of 8 servings for a bargain basement price of 50c. 5.) Under Arm Hair Trimmer($1) For those in need of a trim of that unsightly armpit hair, this is a Good Buy! Best Buy! Must Buy! 6. Bonus buy, a Tomica Comfortdelgro Taxi($8.95) A nice novelt...
