Q: Is there any estimate with respect to a percentage of income derived from Walmart for this REIT ?
Do you think the REIT is a risky investment if there is a great dependence on one key tenant such as Walmart ?
I always appreciate your insight.

Q: Hi, I would appreciate your thoughts regarding Nexus Industrial REIT. It's my understanding that this REIT has effectively transitioned from a mixed properties REIT to a more purely industrial REIT, in recent years. Can you confirm if that is your belief as well? In reviewing the firm's dividend history, it looks to me as though they may have increased their monthly dividend by 300% in Feb/Mar of 2021, from a payment of $0.01333 to $0.05333. Is that correct? Does the REIT generate sufficient cash flow to cover its current dividend and are you please able to provide your opinion about how "secure" the current dividend might be, going forward? Lastly, do you have any information regarding the REIT's current debt and how much of that debt may be of a variable rate and/or due to mature and need to be refinanced over the next year or two? I'd be personally worried about the sustainability of the dividend if a large amount of very low interest debt were to need to be refinanced at what I'm hoping are temporarily much higher rates of interest. It' my opinion that interest rates might be half of what they are today, within two years time from now. Thank you!
