Investment Q&A

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

Q: My position in FCD.UN is down almost 28% in the last year. The shares bumped up recently following earnings release on Nov 10 but then resumed the downtrend. The earnings release shows that distributions are 113% of AFFO. The company bought back 147,000 shares during the quarter. While fewer shares mean fewer distributions, is this a wise expenditure when distributions are over 100% of AFFO? Do think the dividend is safe or should I take my losses and cash out? Thanks for your advice.

Q: I hold these in my TFSA. Do you think this is the best type of account to hold these in? Also, do you feel that these would be higher risk stocks compared to the general market as there seems to be a real estate bubble and would these come down exponentially more if / when there is a correction?
Thanks.

Q: What do you make of Firm Capital Property Trust? They raise their dividend and recently have had a good quarter: “NOI for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was approximately $21.4 million, a 32% increase over the $16.2 million reported for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.”

Most of their tenants are Grocery, Pharmacy or essential services. They also own interests in residential and industrial properties.

Thank-you.

Q: Hello Peter and Ryan,
First Capital is a small trust with market cap of 125M (based on WSJ info). Yesterday, it announces 266 M purchase/co-ownership with First Capital Realty.
Jan 9, 2019 Crombie Reit anounced a sale of 104M ish to the group.
Questions:
Is FCD.UN a good investment today for a 10 years horizon?
Do you think that this can be a step to turn First Capital Realty to a REIT? or a planned merger of all First Capital assets into 1?

My annual membership will end soon, a day before my BD so I always remember to give myself a gift of membership in support of the last independent advisor for DYI.
