Q: Hi Team. With interest rates on the decline I'm thinking REIT's will become more popular. Also concerned with Telus's struggles so thinking of selling Telus and purchasing equal amounts of Dream Industrial REIT and Granite REIT with the sale proceeds. Would you have any concerns with this?

Q: ERE today announced the sale of over 1 Billion in housing and commercial units. In addition a 41.13 special dividend and a 50% reduction in the dividend. I realize this will significantly improve the balance sheets, yet the company is small and will become much smaller. The stock price is up by 23c today. Is the stock worth keeping or should I sell it now. Will the share price gradually climb as it gets closer to the special dividend? What do you think of this sale?.

Q: Hello,

Thanks for all that you do.

CAP REIT has had a good run and is near my price target of $56. Do you think it still has room to run? If not, would you advise selling and picking up some VRN, or are any other beat up companies looking more attractive (I'm indifferent to the sector, but would prefer to stay away from consumer discretionary).

Thanks!

Q: Hello 5i Team

Finally Melcor Developments (MRD) has offered to take Melcor REIT (MR-UN) private at $4.95 with a closing date of late Q4 2024.

I note there is a one month "go shop" for MR-UN to possibly find a better deal, however with MRD owing ~55 %; MRD being the manager of the REITs properties; and the year long Strategic Review Process - is it even a possibility that MR-UN could find another buyer?

With MR-UN trading ~$4.80 should I sell my holdings and move onto another REIT? With only a 3 % difference I think there are other opportunities in the REIT space to replace MR-UN.

What would be 5i top names in the REIT space to replace MR-UN (can be a different sub-sector from MR-UN's operations).

Thanks

Q: Good morning,

can you please share your thoughts on BTB.un and NXR.un, their recent financials including any going forward comments you may have, payout ratio and future growth based on the interest rates moving downward.

I'm in love with the monthly dividends and I have been dripping both stock, my position in both is starting to be central in my portfolio.

Thank you
