Couple of top-ups

[Itsallaguess]

I've had a bit of a build up of dividends recently, which had the effect of pushing my overall cash and cash-equivalents to around 16.5%, which is above the arbitrary level of about 15% that I'm wanting to currently maintain, so I've today topped up a couple of holdings in my HYP -

HSBC Holdings (HSBA) - Forecast yield 6.0%

JPMorgan Global Markets Emerging Income Trust (JEMI) - Yield 4.1%

Back to sleep for a while on the trading front...

Cheers,

I topped up HSBA recently. I'd like to increase my exposure to emerging markets and have considered JEMI but (according to Hargreaves Lansdown) the dividend growth is a bit disappointing so I've avoided it so far.

The JEMI dividend has been 4.90p for the last 5 years but has tweaked up a tad this year.....to 5.0p!).

The HSBA yield looks a bit "ambitious" ..I make it less than 5.7% based on last night's (20/9/18) closing price and the price has ticked up today....but it will all depend on the exchange rate.
