My most memorable investment in Q1 2022 was my trading on $DBS GROUP HOLDINGS LTD(D05.SI)$. I bought its shares at below $33 per share in January and sold them near the height around $37 the following month, before war started when Russia invaded Ukraine. I would have held on to the shares for income as I found the dividend yield very attractive, but the western economic sanctions against Russia changed my mind. Even though the bank claimed that it has little exposure to Russia, I was concerned with the secondary effects of the sanctions. The expected stagnation due to record inflations not seen in decades and aggressive interest hikes by the Fed convinced me to take profit, while waiting for re-entry opportunity.
