Q: Good afternoon guys,
I've been watching the REITs and utility/pipelines stocks take a dip - presumably due to interest rates. I remember a time when a stock like IPL yielded 8 to 10% and HR.UN not much behind that.
With interest rates due to rise in the near or medium term, how high to you see yields rising? Personally, I wouldn't be surprised to see the yields on these stock rise to 7-8%, maybe higher depending on market sentiment etc. Is there a way to guesstimate what yields companies like IPL and or HR.UN could ascend to with increases in interest rates?
