The Table shows the allocation for the 10 stocks for our virtual portfolio and the comparable benchmark. As with previous instalments, our 2025 portfolio will not account for transaction costs and exchange rate fluctuations in tracking the performance.
On the other hand, dividends and capital changes to the stocks will be accounted for when tracking the portfolio’s performance.
Similar to previous portfolio iterations, we will have the flexibility to buy, sell, add or reduce stocks in the 2025 portfolio at our discretion when their investment cases have changed or if they have achieved their target prices.
