Investment Q&A

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

Q: A quote from the Business Insider: "Prospective losses, refinancing woes, international contagion, and panic selling combine to create a bleak outlook for the commercial property sector."

I'm guessing the Office sector is perhaps the most risky portion, but how concerned are you about these three industrial REIT's with regards to the overall CRE outlook? PLD apparently has an A-rated balance sheet which I would guess help them survive compared to many (?) It also appears that much has maybe been priced into the respective stock prices of these.anada

Q: I need to raise some funds and am looking at selling a position in DIR.UN. I have read the past questions and overall you are fairly positive about it, if one is patient. I probably will not be in this for the long term....though not your usual way to look at stocks, would you be able to do some technical analysis to get some idea whether this will bounce back from its recent downturn, at least a bit, in the next month or two?

Thanks much for your excellent service.

Q: Does the increasing tax rate on capital gains meaningfully affect residential real estate companies with mainly Canadian properties? This might also affect grocery-anchored REIT's since they often build apartments on their properties.

Q: I hold both ZRE and XRE. I selected two ETF because their Top10 holdings looked different enough. ZRE has also a better yield. Do you see a better growth from one of them?
Would you have on-hand a breakdown of their holdings (industrials, residential, retail, office). Could these ETF have private holdings? Thanks a million.

Q: If you held 5 or 6 real estate type positions in a diversified portfolio, and wanted to consolidate a bit, would you be in favour of selling a smallish position in SVI and add to medium sized positions in DIR.UN and/or GRT.UN. If yes, would you add to both or just DIR.UN?
