Q: Hello,
Please comment on my logic based on relative beta's :

If I sell my holdings of XTR and buy equal amount of ZRE, in theory, is there more of a chance that in a market recovery, the overall return for ZRE will be higher simply because it fell more and can therefore rise more?

Or is that too simplistic considering there are so many moving parts?

Many thanks!

Q: I currently hold a medium size postion of Invesque.u I depend on the stock for its dividend It is currently yielding 24 percent
If they cut the dividend by 2/3 rds it will still yield 8 percent which is a very high rate In your opinion will the company go bankrupt or will it survive I appreciate your response Paul

Q: Could I get your take on REITs at these levels. I thought they would have held up much better in this current meltdown. Are investors just dumping them because they think tenants are going bankrupt and default on their lease agreements? What is your opinion on FCR.UN? or do you prefer HR.UN? Thanks Ron

Q: May I please have your thoughts on IIP.UN in the current environment? It appears to have held up relatively well. As a growth oriented investor I do not have any REIT exposure. However, I have always regretted not establishing a position in InterRent as its performance over the years has been excellent.

Q: 5i,

Your thoughts on 2019 year end results and do you think this is a good point to step in with 1/3 position. I like the div. and think perhaps with more the low interest rate enviromnment and recent and possibly ongoing Fed rate cuts we will be again, or continue to be, in a positive environment for REITS in general.

BTW thanks for all the help and vigilance during these volitile times.

Cheers!
