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

Q: Thanks for the recent report on DIR.UN.

What is the current FFO payout ratio, and is it sustainable in a prolonged stagflationary environment should it occur ?

I was thinking of pairing this REIT with something in the Self Storage sector such as LSI. Would this be a good plan, or is there a better REIT pairing ?

In general, I thought REITs overall would be performing better in this current bout of inflation. Is it all about interest rates?

Q: Do the American Muni bonds make a good investment for a Canadian taxpayer? I understand Muni bonds are tax-advantaged for US taxpayers and may not be available to Canadians (?). And/Or : What about the new I Bonds I the US, now much publicized in the US financial press, for example Barrons has an article on the new series I Bonds in its November 1 issue. Do such securities make sense for a Canadian taxpayer, assuming they are even available to Canadians? Is there an equivalent in the Canadian bond world? (Has to be available through online brokers-- instruments are not, e.g CASH and HSAV are not available at RBC-DI but one of the above is available on iTRADE)
