KLCI at 1867 high.. Optimism Rules

Been busy doing some property investment and learning some new skills in metal welding and building renovation. Someday I would like to show my competence in welding simple window frames, door frames, steel doors and pet cages, LOL. No major skill, no intent to open a metal foundry (ha ha), just a fascination with how welding fuses two pieces of metal together, that's all...

My property investment is doing well although I must say I invested late after all the easy money has been made by property gurus. Nevertheless I'm pleased with the R.O.I. ranging between 100 to 300% on the capital outlay...

My stocks portfolio also has performed over the time I allowed it to remained virtually unmoved.
Top performer is Tambun purchased at 69c which has yielded a gain of almost 200% at market value of RM2.00
Next is HapSeng bought at RM1.70 now valued at RM3.15 with a gain of 86%
Third on the list is PJ Dev purchased at 98c with a market value of RM1.60 (unrealised profit 60%)
Then there's the 30% beyond gain performers like Scientex, Tomypak, the 20% profit gainers of MHC, Luxchem...
Not forgetting heavyweight blue chips (buy and forget) counters of DIGI, Maxis, Maybank which has regularly given me handsome dividends.. Yawn....

Notice the top three performers are related to the properties sector and that is where I'll be looking for another set of winners. I like Daiman, KSL, Tropicana, WCT, UOADev, TA
There are just too many companies I would like to take a position in but I'm down to 20% cash (80% invested). And I need cash to do short term trade, for daily profits or weekly gain...

I'm beginning to fancy REITS (SunReit, PavReit, CMMT, IGBReit) for their not-so-lofty pricing and their attractive dividend yields > 6%  and I opine that at current pricing, you can buy-and-forget these counters: Appropriate for people with no time to monitor stocks price movement and those who wants better yield than 3% bank FD rate...
For short to mid term, I trade Malton, L&G, TDM, Insas, Pantech, TA, WCT, KSL, TGuan, YTLwb
