I bought Atrium  2 mths ago. It's up 8% now (annualised 48% over 2 months).
Should I sell it now, collect my gains and buy back ex-dividend later at lower price?

The one I eager to know is Stareit, aka their Q report without Starhill & Lot 10, and new properties injection.

I want to buy more. 

What happen to SUNREIT ? the price keep drop from EM0.995...... and now is RM0.98.....

I have 300 lots at RM0.98... plan to sell kurasia and bjretail to buy SUNREIT more 300 lots...any idea ??

SUNWAY REIT IPO:THE BIGGEST RIPPED OFF IN BURSA MALAYSIA
Why you should sell Sunway REIT when it starts to rally on July 8 (listing day)?


    * Jeffrey Cheah is selling his stake in Sunway REIT to "shift his focus" away from Malaysia, which FDI is dwindling at worrying rate. He knows that the Malaysian economy is going down the drain sooner or later.If it's so good,why sell it to the public?More shopping centres will flood the market in the next 2 years but the prospectus never mentioned it.


    * Dividend rate is so low at 6.7% compared to other Malaysian REITs.Average dividend by other REITs is at 8.5%. Hence,the share price will normalise (drop) to follow the other Malaysian REITs. Remember to sell it on July 8.


    * Sunway REIT have very large space in Sunway/USJ. Where is Sunway located? It is a suburban satelite city far away from KL city centre. So,yield at 6.7% is not justified at all.Give me a yield of 10% and I may consider it.


    * What is the future expansion plan of Sunway REIT?What Sunway REIT is gonna buy to increase its NAV ? If the NAV is appreciating at inflation rate while the buildings are depreciating at even faster rate,the dividend yield may be affected due to high repair and maintainence cost.



    Why bother to buy Sunway REIT?I rather buy KLCC Property Holdings which is more secured and expanding.


SUNWAY Real Estate Investment Trust is the biggest ripped off IPO in Southeast Asia this year.

Brother veilside2010,  I just don't fancy much of SUNREIT as it's projected dividend for next year is the lowest at it's price. If I were you I would go for the other REITS like AmanahRaya, AmFirst, Al-AQAR KPJ, Quill Capita, StarHill or Tower.....all these are paying good dividend & most are sold at a discount of their NAV except Al-AQAR KPJ. These are my part of present reits portfolio [ more than 90%]but do hope to add CMMT if it's dividend is higher next year......have to wait for it's annual report before I dive in.  As you had know that we invest in REITS because it's giving good dividend compare to other investments......so shouldn't you look for the yield {%} before you make the final choice. As it is SUNREIT projected yield is around 6.8% whereas the others mention above are around 7.2% to 8%.....yes, a small difference in the yield percentage makes alot of difference if you are holding 300 or 500 lots. Maybe if SUNREIT drops to about 85 cents, then  you might give it a thought.
And take a good read at this article which I posted earlier...

anyone got capitamall yet?
when they giving div?

where you check this info?
any good portal?

Brother veilside2010, you can start investing in AMFIRST REITS immediately as it's going at $1.19 whereas it was 5 cents higher a few days back. And moreover you will collect your dividend immediately too, yes INSTANT DIVIDEND LIKE INSTANT MAGGI MEE.....lol .......see below...
Yes, you are buying at a discount as you are paying only $1.19 cents minus immediate dividend. .......no need to wait for 6 months.  
BTW, you said Maybank said that SUNREIT value at RM1.15 but will it arrive at this price if it's giving low yields......mind you the same bank gave QCapita at $1.27 cents.
Cheers brother veilside2010......happy investing.

The AmFirst announcement said ex-date is 16/11/10 and entitlement date is 19/11/10.

Can please advice on the difference between ex-date and entitlement date?
When must I buy to qualify and receive the dividends?

Thank you very much.

zhi guo,

Ex-date.

Thank you Jordy.
Hmmm.... wondering how much AmFirst reit price will drop after ex-date
