inflation and soaring interest ra","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The REIT sector saw its fair share of challenges last year as high inflation and soaring interest rates dampened sentiment for the asset class.</p><p>Unfortunately, these headwinds have not abated this year.</p><p>Many REITs are, therefore, trying to conserve cash as their operating and finance expenses surge.</p><p>One cash conservation method employed by REITs is the dividend reinvestment plan or DRIP.</p><p>Instead of cash, unitholders can opt to receive their distributions in the form of new units issued by the REIT.</p><p>These units are called scrip and allow unitholders to reinvest their dividends and avoid incurring brokerage fees by buying units from the open market.</p><p>Some REITs also offer a slight discount to the market price to entice unitholders to select the scrip option.</p><p>We profile four REITs that announced DRIPs and assess if investors should take up the offers.</p><p><b>Prime US REIT (SGX: OXMU)</b></p><p>Prime US REIT is a US office REIT with a portfolio of 14 freehold office properties in 13 US markets.</p><p>Its assets under management (AUM) stood at US$1.5 billion as of 31 December 2022.</p><p>The REIT released its fiscal 2022 earnings recently.</p><p>Gross revenue inched up 4% year on year to US$163 million, with contributions from new acquisitions Sorrento Towers and One Tower Center.</p><p>However, net property income (NPI) dipped 2.7% year on year to US$97.9 million.</p><p>Distribution per unit (DPU) slid 3.4% year on year to US$0.0655.</p><p>For the second half of 2022 (2H2022), Prime US REIT declared a DPU of US$0.0303, down 12.2% year on year.</p><p>The REIT manager has announced the application of the DRIP to the 2H2022 DPU.</p><p>The REIT’s occupancy rate remained steady at around 89% and the REIT enjoyed its 11th consecutive quarter of positive rental reversion.</p><p>Aggregate leverage stood at 42.1% with an all-in average interest rate of 3.3%.</p><p>The previous DPU of US$0.0352 per unit saw DRIP units being issued at a 2.5% discount to the volume-weighted average price (VWAP).</p><p><b>Mapletree Industrial Trust (SGX: ME8U)</b></p><p>Mapletree Industrial Trust, or MIT, is an industrial REIT with 85 properties in Singapore and 56 in the US.</p><p>Total AUM stood at S$8.8 billion as of 31 December 2022.</p><p>MIT saw its revenue rise 5% year on year for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 (3Q FY2023) to S$170.4 million.</p><p>NPI rose in tandem to S$128.8 million, but DPU ticked down 2.9% year on year to S$0.0339.</p><p>The manager has announced that the DRIP will apply to the 3Q FY2023 DPU but will be suspended thereafter.</p><p>The issue price for the new units is S$2.3255 per unit, at around a 1% discount to the VWAP.</p><p>MIT’s portfolio occupancy stood high at 95.7%.</p><p>Gearing came in at 37.2% with a cost of debt of 3.3%. The REIT also has close to three-quarters of its loans on fixed rates.</p><p><b>Lendlease Global Commercial REIT (SGX: JYEU)</b></p><p>Lendlease Global Commercial REIT, or LREIT, is an office cum retail REIT that owns Jem, 313 Somerset, both in Singapore, and an interest in Sky Complex in Milan, Italy.</p><p>These properties have an AUM of S$3.6 billion as of 30 June 2022.</p><p>LREIT reported a decent set of earnings for its fiscal 2023’s first half (1H FY2023).</p><p>Gross revenue more than doubled year on year to S$101.7 million as Jem was added to the REIT’s portfolio.</p><p>NPI surged 157.8% year on year to S$76.4 million while DPU inched up 2.1% year on year to S$0.0245.</p><p>The REIT’s gearing ratio stood at 39.2% with a low weighted average cost of debt of 2.35%.</p><p>Committed occupancy was very high at 99.8%.</p><p>The DRIP will apply to the 1H FY2023 DPU and the issue price of new units will be set at around 2% lower than the units’ VWAP.</p><p><b>Starhill Global REIT (SGX: P40U)</b></p><p>Starhill Global REIT, or SGREIT, owns a portfolio of 10 retail and office properties in Singapore, Australia, Malaysia, Japan, and China.</p><p>The portfolio was valued at S$2.9 billion as of 31 December 2022.</p><p>SGREIT’s 1H FY2023 saw revenue rise 4.1% year on year to S$94.7 million.</p><p>NPI increased by 6.7% year on year to S$74.3 million while DPU edged up 2.2% year on year to S$0.0182.</p><p>The REIT’s occupancy stayed high at 97.1% with its portfolio boasting a long weighted average lease expiry of 6.8 years by net lettable area.</p><p>SGREIT’s gearing stood at just 36.3%, opening the REIT up for debt-fuelled acquisitions.</p><p>Around 84% of its loans are on fixed rates and its cost of debt came in at 3.28%.</p><p>The REIT manager has confirmed that the DRIP will apply to the 1H FY2023 DPU and that new units will be issued at a 2% discount to the VWAP.</p><p>After books closure, management announced that the DRIP issue price is S$0.5661 per unit.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1602567310727","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

indexes testing some k","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The stock market rally extended a pullback from a Feb. 2 high, with the major indexes testing some key levels late in the week. Treasury yields soared as Fed officials signaled they may have raise rates further than markets expected. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/LBIX\">Leading</a> stocks generally showed strength. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a> (MSFT) rose as it integrated ChatGPT tech into its Bing search engine, while Google parent <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOG\">Alphabet</a> (GOOGL) plunged as its AI chatbot underwhelmed. Cloudflare (NET), <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FTNT\">Fortinet</a> (FTNT), BP (BP) and On Semiconductor (ON) were earnings winners.</p><h3>Market Rally Retreats</h3><p>The major indexes retreated while the Russell 2000 declined significantly, starting to test some key levels after a strong market advance. This could be a normal, healthy pullback or the start of something more. The 10-year Treasury yield jumped and the dollar strengthened. Crude oil prices rebounded.</p><h3>Google Dives As AI War Heats Up</h3><p>Microsoft (MSFT) and Google-parent <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOGL\">Alphabet</a> (GOOGL) hosted media events highlighting artificial intelligence initiatives and investments. Analysts said Microsoft came out ahead in terms of describing its product strategy and showcasing ChatGPT technology from OpenAI. Microsoft announced that it is integrating the technology behind ChatGPT into its Bing search engine and web browser. Microsoft is the biggest investor in OpenAI. Google announced Bard, its conversational AI chatbot. Google&#39;s press event disappointed with little new news and an advertisement for Bard featured an inaccurate chatbot response. There&#39;s also a concern that Google, given its huge search engine market share, will have to spend massively to run Bard. Meanwhile, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CAAS\">China</a>&#39;s <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BIDU\">Baidu</a> (BIDU) said it will launch an AI chatbot, called Ernie, to the public in March. Google stock plunged. MSFT and Baidu rose, but pared weekly gains. Various AI plays reversed lower after huge gains in recent weeks.</p><h3><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PI\">Impinj</a>, Monolithic Guide Higher</h3><p>Onsemi (ON) and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SWKS\">Skyworks Solutions</a> (SWKS) joined the parade of chipmakers guiding lower for the March quarter after delivering in line or better sales and earnings for the December quarter. Meanwhile, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/RMBS\">Rambus</a> (RMBS) matched views for the fourth quarter and withdrew its outlook. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DIOD\">Diodes</a> (DIOD) beat estimates and gave in-line guidance. But fabless chipmakers Impinj (PI) and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MPWR\">Monolithic Power</a> Systems (MPWR) each guided higher for first-quarter sales after delivering better-than-expected fourth-quarter results. All of these stocks rose solidly except for PI stock.</p><h3>BP Jumps On <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FOSL\">Fossil</a> Fuel Vision</h3><p>The U.K. energy giant reported a 29% EPS gain, just missing, while revenue rose 33% to $69.3 billion. But BP (BP) spiked higher, breaking out to a three-year high, after downshifting an aggressive move toward renewables. The U.K.-based energy giant anticipates oil and gas production to be around 2.3 million barrels of oil equivalent per day in 2025. By 2030, BP expects to be producing 2 million. That would be 25% below BP&#39;s 2019 production, but much higher than its prior goal of a 40% cut. BP CEO Bernard Looney has also said the goal is to increase alternative energy investments to around 50% of total capital spending by 2030. Shell (SHEL), which also has signaled more fossil fuels recently, flirted with a breakout.</p><h3>Disney Earnings Top, Proxy Fight Over</h3><p>Disney (DIS) reported a 7% EPS decline while revenue grew 8% to $23.5 billion, both beating. Disney+ subscribers fell vs. the prior quarter, but North America customers actually edged up. The entertainment giant announced plans to cut 7,000 jobs, or 3%, as part of a large-scale reorganization. It aims to cut $5.5 billion in costs, including $3 billion from content. Following the earnings and restructuring plan, activist investor Nelson Peltz called off his proxy battle vs. Disney.</p><h3>Cybersecurity Software</h3><p>Fortinet (FTNT) reported Q4 earnings jumped 76%, beating views. Revenue climbed 33% to $1.28 billion, just below consensus. But billings topped forecasts and so did the 2023 revenue outlook. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CYBR\">CyberArk</a> Software (CYBR) reported a 43% EPS decline, beating, while a 12% revenue gain fell short. Tenable (TENB) and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/QLYS\">Qualys</a> (QLYS) topped consensus.</p><h3>Human Capital Software Makers Top</h3><p>Ceridian (CDAY) reported EPS up 156% from a year earlier while revenue rose 19% to $336.1 million. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PAYC\">Paycom</a> Software (PAYC) reported EPS swelled 56% with revenue climbing 30% to $370. 6 million. CDAY jumped, clearing a buy zone. But PAYC stock tumbled.</p><h3>Cloudflare Growth Speedy</h3><p>Cloudflare (NET) reported 6 cents a share, up 500% from a 1 cent a year earlier. Revenue rose 42%, also slightly topping. The software maker also guided slightly higher on 2023 results. Cloudflare speeds up and provides security for web applications routed through its intelligent global network. It has ties with ChatGPT creator OpenAI. NET rose solidly.</p><h3>Database Software Stocks Jump</h3><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NEWR\">New Relic</a> (NEWR) spiked as quarterly results soundly beat estimates on the top and bottom lines.

Treasury yields soared as Fed officials signaled they may have raise rates further than markets expected. Leading stocks generally showed strength. Microsoft (MSFT) rose as it integrated ChatGPT tech into its Bing search engine, while Google parent Alphabet (GOOGL) plunged as its AI chatbot underwhelmed. Cloudflare (NET), Fortinet (FTNT), BP (BP) and On Semiconductor (ON) were earnings winners.Market Rally RetreatsThe major indexes retreated while the Russell 2000 declined significantly, starting to test some key levels after a strong market advance. This could be a normal, healthy pullback or the start of something more. The 10-year Treasury yield jumped and the dollar strengthened. Crude oil prices rebounded.Google Dives As AI War Heats UpMicrosoft (MSFT) and Google-parent Alphabet (GOOGL) hosted media events highlighting artificial intelligence initiatives and investments. Analysts said Microsoft came out ahead in terms of describing its product strategy and showcasing ChatGPT technology from OpenAI. Microsoft announced that it is integrating the technology behind ChatGPT into its Bing search engine and web browser. Microsoft is the biggest investor in OpenAI. Google announced Bard, its conversational AI chatbot. Google's press event disappointed with little new news and an advertisement for Bard featured an inaccurate chatbot response. There's also a concern that Google, given its huge search engine market share, will have to spend massively to run Bard. Meanwhile, China's Baidu (BIDU) said it will launch an AI chatbot, called Ernie, to the public in March. Google stock plunged. MSFT and Baidu rose, but pared weekly gains. Various AI plays reversed lower after huge gains in recent weeks.Impinj, Monolithic Guide HigherOnsemi (ON) and Skyworks Solutions (SWKS) joined the parade of chipmakers guiding lower for the March quarter after delivering in line or better sales and earnings for the December quarter. Meanwhile, Rambus (RMBS) matched views for the fourth quarter and withdrew its outlook. Diodes (DIOD) beat estimates and gave in-line guidance. But fabless chipmakers Impinj (PI) and Monolithic Power Systems (MPWR) each guided higher for first-quarter sales after delivering better-than-expected fourth-quarter results. All of these stocks rose solidly except for PI stock.BP Jumps On Fossil Fuel VisionThe U.K. energy giant reported a 29% EPS gain, just missing, while revenue rose 33% to $69.3 billion. But BP (BP) spiked higher, breaking out to a three-year high, after downshifting an aggressive move toward renewables. The U.K.-based energy giant anticipates oil and gas production to be around 2.3 million barrels of oil equivalent per day in 2025. By 2030, BP expects to be producing 2 million. That would be 25% below BP's 2019 production, but much higher than its prior goal of a 40% cut. BP CEO Bernard Looney has also said the goal is to increase alternative energy investments to around 50% of total capital spending by 2030. Shell (SHEL), which also has signaled more fossil fuels recently, flirted with a breakout.Disney Earnings Top, Proxy Fight OverDisney (DIS) reported a 7% EPS decline while revenue grew 8% to $23.5 billion, both beating. Disney+ subscribers fell vs. the prior quarter, but North America customers actually edged up. The entertainment giant announced plans to cut 7,000 jobs, or 3%, as part of a large-scale reorganization. It aims to cut $5.5 billion in costs, including $3 billion from content. Following the earnings and restructuring plan, activist investor Nelson Peltz called off his proxy battle vs. Disney.Cybersecurity SoftwareFortinet (FTNT) reported Q4 earnings jumped 76%, beating views. Revenue climbed 33% to $1.28 billion, just below consensus. But billings topped forecasts and so did the 2023 revenue outlook. CyberArk Software (CYBR) reported a 43% EPS decline, beating, while a 12% revenue gain fell short. Tenable (TENB) and Qualys (QLYS) topped consensus.Human Capital Software Makers TopCeridian (CDAY) reported EPS up 156% from a year earlier while revenue rose 19% to $336.1 million. Paycom Software (PAYC) reported EPS swelled 56% with revenue climbing 30% to $370. 6 million. CDAY jumped, clearing a buy zone. But PAYC stock tumbled.Cloudflare Growth SpeedyCloudflare (NET) reported 6 cents a share, up 500% from a 1 cent a year earlier. Revenue rose 42%, also slightly topping. The software maker also guided slightly higher on 2023 results. Cloudflare speeds up and provides security for web applications routed through its intelligent global network. It has ties with ChatGPT creator OpenAI. NET rose solidly.Database Software Stocks JumpNew Relic (NEWR) spiked as quarterly results soundly beat estimates on the top and bottom lines. The data analytics software maker says it's attracting new customers at a rapid pace. Alteryx (AYX) easily beats views, swinging to a profit while revenue swelled 73%. It also gave bullish guidance.Travel Firms Bullish On DemandTravel companies report Q4 results and 2023 guidance that varied, but agreed that travel should remain strong. Hilton Worldwide (HLT) and Hertz (HTZ) both topped expectations. Hilton's adjusted earnings more than doubled with revenue up 33%, though top-line growth has been slowing. Royal Caribbean (RCL) posted a better-than-expected loss, but was just shy on revenue predictions. Wynn Resorts (WYNN) and MGM Resorts (MGM) both reported big Q4 losses, but the Macau-focused gaming giants impressed with strong revenue growth. Expedia (EXPE) missed estimates but gave a solid guidance of double-digit top-line and bottom-line growth for 2023.

Smart Investor","summary":"Welcome to the latest edition of top stock market highlights.HDB resale pricesHDB resale prices have","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Welcome to the latest edition of top stock market highlights.</p><h3>HDB resale prices</h3><p>HDB resale prices have continued climbing, demonstrating their resilience in an economy marked by high inflation and surging interest rates.</p><p>Prices inched up 1.4% in January compared with December last year, based on flash estimates released by StreetSine Technology Group (SRX) and 99.co.</p><p>Though this quantum may seem low, it was still higher than the 0.2% month-on-month increase in December and the 0.6% month-on-month increase logged in November.</p><p>More HDB flats also transacted above the S$1 million mark last month, coming in at 40 compared with 28 in December.</p><p>Transaction volumes have also climbed, with 2,575 resale flats changing hands, up 14.9% year on year.</p><p>On a year-on-year basis, prices rose 8.7% while transaction volumes increased by 5.4%.</p><p>These numbers were surprising, considering the government had imposed new property cooling measures back in September last year.</p><p>Private homeowners who sell their flats need to wait for 15 months before they can purchase an HDB resale flat.</p><p>One possible reason for this resilience is that HDB upgraders who find private condominiums too expensive and are looking for larger spaces may go for HDB resale flats instead.</p><p>It remains to be seen if these numbers can hold up for the remainder of this year.</p><p>But if they do, real estate brokerages APAC Realty (SGX: CLN) and PropNex (SGX: OYY) could see healthy business volumes for 2023.</p><h3>Temasek Holdings</h3><p>Meanwhile, Temasek Holdings is raising funds through the issuance of bonds.</p><p>The investment firm is issuing two tranches of bonds comprising four and 10-year Euro-denominated bonds through its wholly-owned subsidiary Temasek Financial (I).</p><p>Aptly named T2027-EUR and T2033-EUR, these bonds will be issued under Temasek subsidiary’s US$25 billion guaranteed global medium note programme.</p><p>Temasek has been assigned a corporate credit rating of Aaa by Moody’s and AAA by S&amp;P Global Ratings, a testament to the firm’s high credit standing.</p><p>These bonds will be listed on Singapore Exchange Limited (SGX: S68) and the net proceeds will be used to fund ordinary business activities.</p><p>The four-year bond offers a coupon rate of 3.25% per annum and the 10-year bond is priced at 3.5% per annum.</p><p>Listing for both bonds is expected to take place on 16 February.</p><p>Investors who wish to diversify their portfolio holdings away from shares can consider buying these bonds from the market.</p><h3><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a></h3><p>Software giant Microsoft is bullish on incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) into its search engine</p><p>CEO Satya Nadella gushed about AI-powered search in a recent interview with the news channel CNBC.</p><p>According to him, such enhanced search capabilities are the biggest thing to happen to Microsoft in the last 15 years since cloud infrastructure was first pioneered.</p><p>The Redmond-based company is incorporating AI into its Bing search engine and Edge browser, and Nadella commented that this enhancement represents a “big opportunity” for Microsoft as search is a “very profitable” business.</p><p>Last month, Microsoft announced a multi-billion-dollar deal to invest in ChatGPT’s maker OpenAI.</p><p>This new investment phase, its third, looks set to accelerate the development of AI and help to commercialise more advanced technologies.</p><p>ChatGPT took the world by storm as one of the largest and most powerful language-processing AI models to date.</p><p>Powered by a large language model (LLM), it is programmed to data mine a huge amount of data to generate coherent responses to human questions and statements.</p><p>Bing, however, sits in a distant second place to Google, a division of technology titan Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL).</p><p>Google has also announced an AI-powered chatbot called Bard that will be rolled out more extensively in the coming weeks.</p><p>Bard is powered by Google’s internally-developed LLM called LaMDA, or Language Model for Dialogue Applications.</p><p>It seems that these two technology behemoths will square against each other in the coming months to see which AI-enabled search engine gains the upper hand.</p><p>These advancements also promise to usher in a new era for search and communications powered by AI, and investors could see more updates soon as both companies compete to be the best in their industry.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1602567310727","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta

to the latest edition of top stock market highlights.HDB resale pricesHDB resale prices have continued climbing, demonstrating their resilience in an economy marked by high inflation and surging interest rates.Prices inched up 1.4% in January compared with December last year, based on flash estimates released by StreetSine Technology Group (SRX) and 99.co.Though this quantum may seem low, it was still higher than the 0.2% month-on-month increase in December and the 0.6% month-on-month increase logged in November.More HDB flats also transacted above the S$1 million mark last month, coming in at 40 compared with 28 in December.Transaction volumes have also climbed, with 2,575 resale flats changing hands, up 14.9% year on year.On a year-on-year basis, prices rose 8.7% while transaction volumes increased by 5.4%.These numbers were surprising, considering the government had imposed new property cooling measures back in September last year.Private homeowners who sell their flats need to wait for 15 months before they can purchase an HDB resale flat.One possible reason for this resilience is that HDB upgraders who find private condominiums too expensive and are looking for larger spaces may go for HDB resale flats instead.It remains to be seen if these numbers can hold up for the remainder of this year.But if they do, real estate brokerages APAC Realty (SGX: CLN) and PropNex (SGX: OYY) could see healthy business volumes for 2023.Temasek HoldingsMeanwhile, Temasek Holdings is raising funds through the issuance of bonds.The investment firm is issuing two tranches of bonds comprising four and 10-year Euro-denominated bonds through its wholly-owned subsidiary Temasek Financial (I).Aptly named T2027-EUR and T2033-EUR, these bonds will be issued under Temasek subsidiary’s US$25 billion guaranteed global medium note programme.Temasek has been assigned a corporate credit rating of Aaa by Moody’s and AAA by S&P Global Ratings, a testament to the firm’s high credit standing.These bonds will be listed on Singapore Exchange Limited (SGX: S68) and the net proceeds will be used to fund ordinary business activities.The four-year bond offers a coupon rate of 3.25% per annum and the 10-year bond is priced at 3.5% per annum.Listing for both bonds is expected to take place on 16 February.Investors who wish to diversify their portfolio holdings away from shares can consider buying these bonds from the market.MicrosoftSoftware giant Microsoft is bullish on incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) into its search engineCEO Satya Nadella gushed about AI-powered search in a recent interview with the news channel CNBC.According to him, such enhanced search capabilities are the biggest thing to happen to Microsoft in the last 15 years since cloud infrastructure was first pioneered.The Redmond-based company is incorporating AI into its Bing search engine and Edge browser, and Nadella commented that this enhancement represents a “big opportunity” for Microsoft as search is a “very profitable” business.Last month, Microsoft announced a multi-billion-dollar deal to invest in ChatGPT’s maker OpenAI.This new investment phase, its third, looks set to accelerate the development of AI and help to commercialise more advanced technologies.ChatGPT took the world by storm as one of the largest and most powerful language-processing AI models to date.Powered by a large language model (LLM), it is programmed to data mine a huge amount of data to generate coherent responses to human questions and statements.Bing, however, sits in a distant second place to Google, a division of technology titan Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL).Google has also announced an AI-powered chatbot called Bard that will be rolled out more extensively in the coming weeks.Bard is powered by Google’s internally-developed LLM called LaMDA, or Language Model for Dialogue Applications.It seems that these two technology behemoths will square against each other in the coming months to see which AI-enabled search engine gains the upper hand.These advancements also promise to usher in a new era for search and communications powered by AI, and investors could see more updates soon as both companies compete to be the best in their industry.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":285,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9954066789,"gmtCreate":1675850840742,"gmtModify":1675850844431,"author":{"id":"4128899324677872","authorId":"4128899324677872","name":"NKCT","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b18cf79128dbd895a7c655601cfefeae","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4128899324677872","idStr":"4128899324677872"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👌","listText":"👌","text":"👌","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9954066789","repostId":"1174779038","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1174779038","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1675843841,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1174779038?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2023-02-08

On the downside, it’d be very bullish for Uber to hold the Q4 high as support, along with the 10-week moving average.</p><p><b>Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL)</b></p><p>Artificial intelligence (AI) has been all the rage lately. <b>OpenAI’s</b> ChatGPT has garnered attention from millions of people and is popping up all over social media and in the news.</p><p>Of course, big tech isn’t going to lie down and let other companies dominate this new and headline-worthy field.

Decline","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1182165784","media":"The Smart Investor","summary":"REIT investors faced a turbulent year in 2022 as the asset class was hit by a combination of high in","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>REIT investors faced a turbulent year in 2022 as the asset class was hit by a combination of high inflation and rising interest rates.</p><p>Sentiment remained weak with the unit prices of popular REITs such as <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/M44U.SI\">Mapletree Logistics Trust</a> and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/C2PU.SI\">Parkway Life REIT</a> touching a 52-week low.</p><p>Despite the dour sentiment, REITs have done an admirable job of paying out steady, predictable dividends to income-seeking investors.</p><p>However, investors need to remain vigilant.</p><p>With a bumpy path ahead amid economic uncertainties and elevated costs, REITs could see their distribution per unit (DPU) come under pressure.</p><p>Here are three red flags that could indicate a potential DPU decline.</p><h3>A decline in portfolio valuation</h3><p>All REITs revalue their property portfolios once a year when their fiscal year-end arrives.</p><p>Property valuation is performed by independent real estate valuation companies based on factors such as discount and capitalisation rates as well as occupancy rates and prospects.</p><p>REITs could see their properties being revalued downwards if property fundamentals weaken or occupancy rates decline.</p><p>A recent example is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BTOU.SI\">Manulife US REIT</a>, or MUST.</p><p>The US commercial REIT reported that its portfolio’s valuation had declined by 10.9% year on year from US$2.18 billion in 2021 to S$1.95 billion as of the end of 2022.</p><p>The reasons were varied – MUST disclosed that higher discount rates were used to value properties that reflected heightened risks at both the macroeconomic and property levels.</p><p>Certain properties also saw weaker occupational performance because of slowdowns in demand and leasing activity.</p><p>As a result of the reduced valuations, MUST’s aggregate leverage will hit approximately 49%, just below the maximum threshold of 50% set by the Monetary Authority of Singapore.</p><p>While the REIT manager assures investors that no financial covenants have been breached, the REIT must find ways to reduce its aggregate leverage.</p><p>Some methods may involve the sale of assets to generate cash that can pay down some of its

investors faced a turbulent year in 2022 as the asset class was hit by a combination of high inflation and rising interest rates.Sentiment remained weak with the unit prices of popular REITs such as Mapletree Logistics Trust and Parkway Life REIT touching a 52-week low.Despite the dour sentiment, REITs have done an admirable job of paying out steady, predictable dividends to income-seeking investors.However, investors need to remain vigilant.With a bumpy path ahead amid economic uncertainties and elevated costs, REITs could see their distribution per unit (DPU) come under pressure.Here are three red flags that could indicate a potential DPU decline.A decline in portfolio valuationAll REITs revalue their property portfolios once a year when their fiscal year-end arrives.Property valuation is performed by independent real estate valuation companies based on factors such as discount and capitalisation rates as well as occupancy rates and prospects.REITs could see their properties being revalued downwards if property fundamentals weaken or occupancy rates decline.A recent example is Manulife US REIT, or MUST.The US commercial REIT reported that its portfolio’s valuation had declined by 10.9% year on year from US$2.18 billion in 2021 to S$1.95 billion as of the end of 2022.The reasons were varied – MUST disclosed that higher discount rates were used to value properties that reflected heightened risks at both the macroeconomic and property levels.Certain properties also saw weaker occupational performance because of slowdowns in demand and leasing activity.As a result of the reduced valuations, MUST’s aggregate leverage will hit approximately 49%, just below the maximum threshold of 50% set by the Monetary Authority of Singapore.While the REIT manager assures investors that no financial covenants have been breached, the REIT must find ways to reduce its aggregate leverage.Some methods may involve the sale of assets to generate cash that can pay down some of its loans, which will ultimately lead to a decline in DPU.Currency weaknessCurrency movements may also present a challenge for REITs that derive rental income in foreign currencies.As DPU is paid out in Singapore dollars (SGD), the translation of rental income from a foreign currency to SGD may be impacted by currency weakness.An example is Daiwa House Logistics Trust (SGX: DHLU), or DHLT, which owns a portfolio of 14 logistics properties across Japan.For the first nine months of 2022 (9M2022), DHLT reported that actual net property income (NPI) was 6.3% lower at S$41.8 million compared with its forecast of S$44.6 million.The difference was due to foreign exchange volatility, as the Japanese Yen (JPY) had declined by 15% against the SGD in the past year.A similar situation can be found in Elite Commercial REIT (SGX: MXNU).The UK commercial REIT reported a DPU of £0.0379 for 9M2022, down 7.8% year on year.With the roughly 12% depreciation of the British Pound against the SGD in the past year, the DPU when translated to SGD will be further negatively impacted.A rise in finance costsWith interest rates shooting up, REIT investors should also keep an eye on the all-in financing cost for the REITs that they own.Should the cost of debt continue rising, higher finance expenses could signal lower future distributable income.For Mapletree Industrial Trust, its funding cost rose from 2.5% as of 30 June last year to 2.9% as of 30 September.The higher cost of debt could be a precursor for the REIT to report lower year on year DPU in future quarters.Suntec REIT reported a 5.8% year on year fall in distributable income for its fiscal 2022’s third quarter (3Q2022) and a 6.6% year on year dip in DPU due, in part, to higher finance costs.The retail cum commercial REIT’s all-in financing cost rose from 2.51% as of 30 June to 2.76% as of 30 September.Get Smart: Keep the faithSome REITs may see their DPU come under pressure in the coming quarters.But all is not lost.Well-managed REITs with strong sponsors can help mitigate the DPU decline through acquisitions, organic growth and asset enhancement initiatives.2023 may turn out to be a rocky year, but if a REIT owns high-quality assets, it should turn out fine in the long run.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":522,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":9942231882,"gmtCreate":1681227136246,"gmtModify":1681227138148,"author":{"id":"4128899324677872","authorId":"4128899324677872","name":"NKCT","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b18cf79128dbd895a7c655601cfefeae","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4128899324677872","authorIdStr":"4128899324677872"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok

Treasury yields soared as Fed officials signaled they may have raise rates further than markets expected. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/LBIX\">Leading</a> stocks generally showed strength. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a> (MSFT) rose as it integrated ChatGPT tech into its Bing search engine, while Google parent <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOG\">Alphabet</a> (GOOGL) plunged as its AI chatbot underwhelmed. Cloudflare (NET), <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FTNT\">Fortinet</a> (FTNT), BP (BP) and On Semiconductor (ON) were earnings winners.</p><h3>Market Rally Retreats</h3><p>The major indexes retreated while the Russell 2000 declined significantly, starting to test some key levels after a strong market advance. This could be a normal, healthy pullback or the start of something more. The 10-year Treasury yield jumped and the dollar strengthened. Crude oil prices rebounded.</p><h3>Google Dives As AI War Heats Up</h3><p>Microsoft (MSFT) and Google-parent <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOGL\">Alphabet</a> (GOOGL) hosted media events highlighting artificial intelligence initiatives and investments. Analysts said Microsoft came out ahead in terms of describing its product strategy and showcasing ChatGPT technology from OpenAI. Microsoft announced that it is integrating the technology behind ChatGPT into its Bing search engine and web browser. Microsoft is the biggest investor in OpenAI. Google announced Bard, its conversational AI chatbot. Google&#39;s press event disappointed with little new news and an advertisement for Bard featured an inaccurate chatbot response. There&#39;s also a concern that Google, given its huge search engine market share, will have to spend massively to run Bard. Meanwhile, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CAAS\">China</a>&#39;s <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BIDU\">Baidu</a> (BIDU) said it will launch an AI chatbot, called Ernie, to the public in March.

But fabless chipmakers Impinj (PI) and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MPWR\">Monolithic Power</a> Systems (MPWR) each guided higher for first-quarter sales after delivering better-than-expected fourth-quarter results. All of these stocks rose solidly except for PI stock.</p><h3>BP Jumps On <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FOSL\">Fossil</a> Fuel Vision</h3><p>The U.K. energy giant reported a 29% EPS gain, just missing, while revenue rose 33% to $69.3 billion.

The U.K.-based energy giant anticipates oil and gas production to be around 2.3 million barrels of oil equivalent per day in 2025. By 2030, BP expects to be producing 2 million. That would be 25% below BP&#39;s 2019 production, but much higher than its prior goal of a 40% cut. BP CEO Bernard Looney has also said the goal is to increase alternative energy investments to around 50% of total capital spending by 2030.

They&#39;ve historically produced higher total returns than nonpayers, with less volatility. Meanwhile, the best performance has traditionally come from dividend growers and initiators. </p><p>Three dividend stocks that offer an exceptional combination of income and growth are <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BAM\">Brookfield Asset Management </a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AVGO\">Broadcom </a>, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CPT\">Camden Property Trust </a>. They all pay a dividend yielding more than 3% (nearly double the <b>S&amp;P 500</b>&#39;s 1.6% dividend yield) that they should grow at attractive rates in the future. </p><h2>High-powered dividend growth ahead</h2><p>Brookfield Asset Management recently became public after its parent, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BAM\">Brookfield Corporation </a>, spun out a 25% stake in its asset management business and distributed it to shareholders. Brookfield Asset Management immediately initiated a dividend, which yields about 3.8% at the company&#39;s recent share price. </p><p>Brookfield Asset Management expects to grow that already attractive payout at a 15% to 20% compound annual rate over the next several years. That aligns with the expected growth in its fee-related earnings as the company invests capital raised by investors in its various funds. It raised a record $93 billion in capital from investors last year, giving it lots of visibility into the future growth of its management fees. </p><p>The company continues to launch new flagship funds and expand into new categories. Last year, it raised $22 billion for its fifth flagship infrastructure fund and $9 billion for its sixth flagship private equity fund. Meanwhile, it recently launched its first energy transition fund, raising $15 billion. The company expects to raise new funds, which should drive strong fee-related earnings growth to support its plan to rapidly increase its already sizable dividend. </p><h2>A big-time dividend growth stock</h2><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AVGO\">Broadcom</a> currently yields slightly more than 3%. The semiconductor supplier and infrastructure software solutions company has an excellent track record of growing its dividend. It recently increased its payout by 12%, marking its 12th straight year of growth since initiating a dividend in 2011. It has delivered eye-popping growth since making that first payment: </p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/411fb4a52a750e6f1fbbf4477b334ba9\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>AVGO Dividend data by YCharts</p><p>The company&#39;s dividend policy sees it pay out 50% of its prior fiscal year&#39;s free cash flow to shareholders via the dividend. It uses the other half to maintain a strong balance sheet, finance growth, and repurchase shares. </p><p>The company should be able to continue growing its free cash flow and dividend in the future. It&#39;s working to accelerate its software scale and growth opportunities by acquiring <b>VMWare</b> (VMW) for $61 billion of cash and stock. The company hopes to close that deal this year, which should help drive growth over the next few years. </p><h2>A great home for dividend seekers</h2><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CPT\">Camden Property</a> currently yields 3.2%. The apartment REIT recently declared its latest dividend payment, giving investors a 6.4% raise compared to the prior payout level. That continued its steady growth: </p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ab13f48236f9d5707137967bdf1aabdb\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"515\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Image source: Camden Property Trust Investor Relations Presentation. </p><p>With its latest raise, Camden has more than doubled its dividend payment since 2011.</p><p>The apartment owner should be able to continue growing its payout in the future. It focuses on owning apartment communities in the fastest-growing cities in the country&#39;s southern half that benefit from above-average employment and population growth rates. That drives demand for apartments, keeps occupancy rates high, and pushes strong rent growth.</p><p>Camden Property also benefits from its investments to grow its portfolio. The REIT is investing $661 million to construct six more rental communities, including two single-family home rental communities. It also has the land bank to build several more communities in top markets as demand grows. The company has ample liquidity to fund new investments, with $1.2 billion in cash and borrowing capacity on its credit line and only $306.7 million left to finance in its current construction pipeline.

They've historically produced higher total returns than nonpayers, with less volatility. Meanwhile, the best performance has traditionally come from dividend growers and initiators. Three dividend stocks that offer an exceptional combination of income and growth are Brookfield Asset Management , Broadcom , and Camden Property Trust . They all pay a dividend yielding more than 3% (nearly double the S&P 500's 1.6% dividend yield) that they should grow at attractive rates in the future. High-powered dividend growth aheadBrookfield Asset Management recently became public after its parent, Brookfield Corporation , spun out a 25% stake in its asset management business and distributed it to shareholders. Brookfield Asset Management immediately initiated a dividend, which yields about 3.8% at the company's recent share price. Brookfield Asset Management expects to grow that already attractive payout at a 15% to 20% compound annual rate over the next several years. That aligns with the expected growth in its fee-related earnings as the company invests capital raised by investors in its various funds. It raised a record $93 billion in capital from investors last year, giving it lots of visibility into the future growth of its management fees. The company continues to launch new flagship funds and expand into new categories. Last year, it raised $22 billion for its fifth flagship infrastructure fund and $9 billion for its sixth flagship private equity fund. Meanwhile, it recently launched its first energy transition fund, raising $15 billion. The company expects to raise new funds, which should drive strong fee-related earnings growth to support its plan to rapidly increase its already sizable dividend. A big-time dividend growth stockBroadcom currently yields slightly more than 3%. The semiconductor supplier and infrastructure software solutions company has an excellent track record of growing its dividend. It recently increased its payout by 12%, marking its 12th straight year of growth since initiating a dividend in 2011. It has delivered eye-popping growth since making that first payment: AVGO Dividend data by YChartsThe company's dividend policy sees it pay out 50% of its prior fiscal year's free cash flow to shareholders via the dividend. It uses the other half to maintain a strong balance sheet, finance growth, and repurchase shares. The company should be able to continue growing its free cash flow and dividend in the future. It's working to accelerate its software scale and growth opportunities by acquiring VMWare (VMW) for $61 billion of cash and stock. The company hopes to close that deal this year, which should help drive growth over the next few years. A great home for dividend seekersCamden Property currently yields 3.2%. The apartment REIT recently declared its latest dividend payment, giving investors a 6.4% raise compared to the prior payout level. That continued its steady growth: Image source: Camden Property Trust Investor Relations Presentation. With its latest raise, Camden has more than doubled its dividend payment since 2011.The apartment owner should be able to continue growing its payout in the future. It focuses on owning apartment communities in the fastest-growing cities in the country's southern half that benefit from above-average employment and population growth rates. That drives demand for apartments, keeps occupancy rates high, and pushes strong rent growth.Camden Property also benefits from its investments to grow its portfolio. The REIT is investing $661 million to construct six more rental communities, including two single-family home rental communities. It also has the land bank to build several more communities in top markets as demand grows. The company has ample liquidity to fund new investments, with $1.2 billion in cash and borrowing capacity on its credit line and only $306.7 million left to finance in its current construction pipeline. Along with rent growth, these developments should help increase its FFO, enabling Camden to continue growing its dividend. Top-tier dividend stocksBrookfield Asset Management, Broadcom, and Camden Property Trust offer investors the best of both worlds. They pay high-yielding dividends that should grow at attractive rates in the coming years. That makes them exceptional dividend stocks to buy without hesitation right now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":208,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9954652408,"gmtCreate":1676344523305,"gmtModify":1676344527439,"author":{"id":"4128899324677872","authorId":"4128899324677872","name":"NKCT","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b18cf79128dbd895a7c655601cfefeae","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4128899324677872","authorIdStr":"4128899324677872"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9954652408","repostId":"1116356029","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1116356029","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1676340069,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1116356029?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2023-02-14

inflation and soaring interest ra","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The REIT sector saw its fair share of challenges last year as high inflation and soaring interest rates dampened sentiment for the asset class.</p><p>Unfortunately, these headwinds have not abated this year.</p><p>Many REITs are, therefore, trying to conserve cash as their operating and finance expenses surge.</p><p>One cash conservation method employed by REITs is the dividend reinvestment plan or DRIP.</p><p>Instead of cash, unitholders can opt to receive their distributions in the form of new units issued by the REIT.</p><p>These units are called scrip and allow unitholders to reinvest their dividends and avoid incurring brokerage fees by buying units from the open market.</p><p>Some REITs also offer a slight discount to the market price to entice unitholders to select the scrip option.</p><p>We profile four REITs that announced DRIPs and assess if investors should take up the offers.</p><p><b>Prime US REIT (SGX: OXMU)</b></p><p>Prime US REIT is a US office REIT with a portfolio of 14 freehold office properties in 13 US markets.</p><p>Its assets under management (AUM) stood at US$1.5 billion as of 31 December 2022.</p><p>The REIT released its fiscal 2022 earnings recently.</p><p>Gross revenue inched up 4% year on year to US$163 million, with contributions from new acquisitions Sorrento Towers and One Tower Center.</p><p>However, net property income (NPI) dipped 2.7% year on year to US$97.9 million.</p><p>Distribution per unit (DPU) slid 3.4% year on year to US$0.0655.</p><p>For the second half of 2022 (2H2022), Prime US REIT declared a DPU of US$0.0303, down 12.2% year on year.</p><p>The REIT manager has announced the application of the DRIP to the 2H2022 DPU.</p><p>The REIT’s occupancy rate remained steady at around 89% and the REIT enjoyed its 11th consecutive quarter of positive rental reversion.</p><p>Aggregate leverage stood at 42.1% with an all-in average interest rate of 3.3%.</p><p>The previous DPU of US$0.0352 per unit saw DRIP units being issued at a 2.5% discount to the volume-weighted average price (VWAP).</p><p><b>Mapletree Industrial Trust (SGX: ME8U)</b></p><p>Mapletree Industrial Trust, or MIT, is an industrial REIT with 85 properties in Singapore and 56 in the US.</p><p>Total AUM stood at S$8.8 billion as of 31 December 2022.</p><p>MIT saw its revenue rise 5% year on year for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 (3Q FY2023) to S$170.4 million.</p><p>NPI rose in tandem to S$128.8 million, but DPU ticked down 2.9% year on year to S$0.0339.</p><p>The manager has announced that the DRIP will apply to the 3Q FY2023 DPU but will be suspended thereafter.</p><p>The issue price for the new units is S$2.3255 per unit, at around a 1% discount to the VWAP.</p><p>MIT’s portfolio occupancy stood high at 95.7%.</p><p>Gearing came in at 37.2% with a cost of debt of 3.3%. The REIT also has close to three-quarters of its loans on fixed rates.</p><p><b>Lendlease Global Commercial REIT (SGX: JYEU)</b></p><p>Lendlease Global Commercial REIT, or LREIT, is an office cum retail REIT that owns Jem, 313 Somerset, both in Singapore, and an interest in Sky Complex in Milan, Italy.</p><p>These properties have an AUM of S$3.6 billion as of 30 June 2022.</p><p>LREIT reported a decent set of earnings for its fiscal 2023’s first half (1H FY2023).</p><p>Gross revenue more than doubled year on year to S$101.7 million as Jem was added to the REIT’s portfolio.</p><p>NPI surged 157.8% year on year to S$76.4 million while DPU inched up 2.1% year on year to S$0.0245.</p><p>The REIT’s gearing ratio stood at 39.2% with a low weighted average cost of debt of 2.35%.</p><p>Committed occupancy was very high at 99.8%.</p><p>The DRIP will apply to the 1H FY2023 DPU and the issue price of new units will be set at around 2% lower than the units’ VWAP.</p><p><b>Starhill Global REIT (SGX: P40U)</b></p><p>Starhill Global REIT, or SGREIT, owns a portfolio of 10 retail and office properties in Singapore, Australia, Malaysia, Japan, and China.</p><p>The portfolio was valued at S$2.9 billion as of 31 December 2022.</p><p>SGREIT’s 1H FY2023 saw revenue rise 4.1% year on year to S$94.7 million.</p><p>NPI increased by 6.7% year on year to S$74.3 million while DPU edged up 2.2% year on year to S$0.0182.</p><p>The REIT’s occupancy stayed high at 97.1% with its portfolio boasting a long weighted average lease expiry of 6.8 years by net lettable area.</p><p>SGREIT’s gearing stood at just 36.3%, opening the REIT up for debt-fuelled acquisitions.</p><p>Around 84% of its loans are on fixed rates and its cost of debt came in at 3.28%.</p><p>The REIT manager has confirmed that the DRIP will apply to the 1H FY2023 DPU and that new units will be issued at a 2% discount to the VWAP.</p><p>After books closure, management announced that the DRIP issue price is S$0.5661 per unit.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1602567310727","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The REIT also has close to three-quarters of its loans on fixed rates.Lendlease Global Commercial REIT (SGX: JYEU)Lendlease Global Commercial REIT, or LREIT, is an office cum retail REIT that owns Jem, 313 Somerset, both in Singapore, and an interest in Sky Complex in Milan, Italy.These properties have an AUM of S$3.6 billion as of 30 June 2022.LREIT reported a decent set of earnings for its fiscal 2023’s first half (1H FY2023).Gross revenue more than doubled year on year to S$101.7 million as Jem was added to the REIT’s portfolio.NPI surged 157.8% year on year to S$76.4 million while DPU inched up 2.1% year on year to S$0.0245.The REIT’s gearing ratio stood at 39.2% with a low weighted average cost of debt of 2.35%.Committed occupancy was very high at 99.8%.The DRIP will apply to the 1H FY2023 DPU and the issue price of new units will be set at around 2% lower than the units’ VWAP.Starhill Global REIT (SGX: P40U)Starhill Global REIT, or SGREIT, owns a portfolio of 10 retail and office properties in Singapore, Australia, Malaysia, Japan, and China.The portfolio was valued at S$2.9 billion as of 31 December 2022.SGREIT’s 1H FY2023 saw revenue rise 4.1% year on year to S$94.7 million.NPI increased by 6.7% year on year to S$74.3 million while DPU edged up 2.2% year on year to S$0.0182.The REIT’s occupancy stayed high at 97.1% with its portfolio boasting a long weighted average lease expiry of 6.8 years by net lettable area.SGREIT’s gearing stood at just 36.3%, opening the REIT up for debt-fuelled acquisitions.Around 84% of its loans are on fixed rates and its cost of debt came in at 3.28%.The REIT manager has confirmed that the DRIP will apply to the 1H FY2023 DPU and that new units will be issued at a 2% discount to the VWAP.After books closure, management announced that the DRIP issue price is S$0.5661 per unit.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":941,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9943811076,"gmtCreate":1679334403195,"gmtModify":1679334406984,"author":{"id":"4128899324677872","authorId":"4128899324677872","name":"NKCT","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b18cf79128dbd895a7c655601cfefeae","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4128899324677872","authorIdStr":"4128899324677872"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok tq","listText":"Ok tq","text":"Ok tq","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9943811076","repostId":"9943819862","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":9943819862,"gmtCreate":1679333706657,"gmtModify":1679333711402,"author":{"id":"4140388454599512","authorId":"4140388454599512","name":"POHSWEEGUAN","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/84ca47540279e61404346b705a202bc0","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4140388454599512","authorIdStr":"4140388454599512"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/FUT/MGC2310\">$E-Micro Gold -
