Investment Q&A

Q: May I have your thoughts on PLD.

Q: I’m looking to add a US REIT to my portfolio. Can I get your thoughts on how you would order these 5: SPM, O, VICI, PLD, IRM? Also, what would be your choice of a US REIT ETF?

Q: What are your thoughts on the quarter and year end results for STAG? I'm looking for the best industrial REIT values in the US and Canada right now, can you give me a couple options you like and why?

Q: Have held shares in each these companies for a while and they really have not done much. Would appreciate your opinion on each. Should I continue to hold the shares or would it be better to sell and move on. Could you please provide rationale for your recommendations. Thanks.

Q: Good day your thoughts on PLD please
Thanks

Q: What are some REITS that aren't in the heavily leveraged area ?

Q: Is it a good time to start buying REITS or should I wait until 1/2 way through next year when we know more about this recession that everyone is predicting?

Can you recommend 1 or 2 CDN and 1 or 2 US for a long term hold?

Q: Hi,
I'm interested in these US REITs. Can you rank them best to worst for a longterm holder, and comment on the best account type to hold them in?
I know you've said that in general REITs are best held in a TFSA, but are there any exceptions to that guideline among them.
Thanks

Q: Hi 5i, looking for help taming the RIETs part of my portfolio as i own all of the above. Can you help me with selling some REITs (anything I've doubled up on or is not the best choice). I am planning on redistributing the funds to the remaining REITs. As usual your help is appreciated, if you could rank them also that would be great.

Q: I have never owned a REIT but started looking at a couple. In doing so I realized that I really don’t know what to evaluate in a REIT (beyond type of asset - land, commercial, residential, specialty) and things I normally see as red flags may not be here. Can you tell me a few of the most important fundamentals to look at when comparing REITS (negatives to watch out for specifically, and positive indicators). For example my initial concerns were steady increases on common shares outstanding (seems acceptable and typical of all REITS) and what debt levels are acceptable. If you could tag your favourite REITS today I would appreciate. I have only looked at LAND and IIPR so far.

Q: If you were going to have a USD Income Portfolio, what would your top 10 equities and how would you rank them. How important is annual dividend increases?

Q: Is Real Estate a good investment in an inflationary environment? I have Prologis, Public Storage and American Tower on my watchlist. Can you please rank them and provide any other suggestion you might have.

Q: Good morning. I am looking to add a new US dividend growth stock to my RRSP. My top contenders are Costco, Home Depot and McDonald's. What would be your top choice today? Do you have any better suggestions (stocks or REIT's)? Thank you.

Q: Hello again and thanks for your insights on AGNC, I think I will set that one aside for now. Searching the Q&A I have assembled this list of 4 companies for diversified exposure to residential and industrial real estate in Canada and the US (a bit of global with Prologis is appealing). In your opinion does this group provide complementary exposure? Can you suggest an addition to this list or is there one that you would remove?

Q: Hi Peter,

In this downtrend market could you please give your three best stocks to buy for 3 to 5 years hold in each sector in canada and US as well ?
Thank you for your best advise on this platform.

Q: Thank you for reading my question

Q: What are your top US REITs?

Q: Your thoughts on PLD as an investment. Would this be a good time to consider purchasing a position in the stock. How do their financials look and when are their next quarter results due.

Thanks John
