SIA Engineering has been one of my personal favorite and a darling company for many investors which has seen its dividends grow from 16 cents to 18 cents, 20 cents, 21 cents and finally 22 cents in the past 5 years. The management has also returned shareholders value well with ROE > 20% in the…

Hospitality sectors have been under huge pressure from the markets in recent months and it is easy to see that from the graphs. On YTD, the shares for CDL Hospitality Trusts have fallen from a 52 week high of $2.12 to today’s 52 week low of $1.50. I managed to load them today at $1.505….
