Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: What are your thoughts on the Zillow Group as a (longish term) investment ? Would this be a good way to get a toehold in the Real Estate sector in the US? .. or are there better ways?

ZG seemed to have started out well enough, but then took quite a dive last fall; now it seems to have stabilized and is back on the rise. Was the dive from general market unease, or something fundamental in the company?

Thank you.

Q: I realize that you have not been a cheerleader for this company, but wondered what you think of it after the recent (May 2019) acquisition? They are saying it is immediately accretive to AFFO on a per share basis. Another interesting note is their use of the existing management team. I am considering it to add some "USA" flavour to my healthcare full position in Sienna. Would you like it for a full position, or perhaps 50%, or …?

Q: In its Q1 report, BRE attributed its net loss to "the fair value of the exchangeable units issued by the Company, driven by a rise in the Company's share price." Other metrics were encouraging, but particularly considering the scope (~80% of revenue) of the exchangeable units penalty, should I be concerned about their impact going-forward? Their effect seems to be to punish the company when it shows good momentum.

Q: I am overweight in real estate and currently hold both HR.UN and BPY.UN. If I were to reduce my holdings, do you have a preference for holding one over the other (or go equal weight)?

With the current market volatility, would it be better to wait before rebalancing.

Your thoughts please.

Thanks for the great Service.

Were these results (one item noted : Paul Godfrey had 24% of the votes withheld) the reason for the drop ?.

Q: It seems interest-rate sensitive stocks might be a good place to be right now and my sense is REITS and the banks have been beaten up the most.
Not sure I'm ready to jump back into banks, but would consider it if you're bullish.
Would you give me your best ideas for REITs and possibly Dividend payers.
And do you think my theory is correct?
