Investment Q&A

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

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.

Stephen

Q: Riocan was droping fast today, today we knew the anouncements of the elections of new directors. Were these results (one item noted : Paul Godfrey had 24% of the votes withheld) the reason for the drop ?. Volume jumped from 35k to 650k in the last minute of the session (3.59 pm) , are these real transactions ?, done by whom ?

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?

Q: Considering the recent market volatility and dovish tone from central banks, I would like to increase my exposure to REITs sector for some consistent income. Among the different REIT sectors, I am more lean towards to the Industrial sector, and currently looking to deploy some money into one of the names mentioned above. Any preference? Thanks. Tim

Q: I would like to add one of AP.UN, MRG.UN, or SMU.UN to my REIT holdings. Can you rank them in terms of which one will likely provide the best combined return (on yield and growth) for a three year hold? Or if there others I should also consider? Thanks.

Q: The general objective for my portfolio is quality, dividend growth. Thinking about the REIT portion of my portfolio and recognizing that REIT dividends do not present the best growth opportunity, I am reviewing H&R REIT and Riocan REIT, both of which appear to be in repositioning mode. I could just hang in with them. Or I could sell one and buy an industrial REIT. Qs:
- should I hang in on both? (I am in the money on both).
- if I were selling one, which would you sell?
- of the Canadian industrial REITs, is Dream Industrial your favourite?
- would you consider Dream Industrial (or your preferred industrial REIT) of equivalent quality to H&R and Riocan?
