Yes. I think I catch the drift on the term. Just wanted to know how did become so popular ?

There were two hypothesis that I could think of :-

1. Holland - Place of first market bubble burst. Hence the term becomes synonymous with the bust cycle.

2. Ho'lan (pronunced in Hokkein) - Derogatory term sometimes used to express anger. An oft used expletive inassociation with something humongous and unimaginable.

Talking about Holland makes me feel like going for a tour in Holland!!!

Can anyone remember what is the forecast dividend yield for CMMT and SUNREIT?

Qcap is expected to release Q result on 29 July, based on the lastest update.


Based on IPO price

Thanks Cherroy, need it to compare with the rest of the reits.

This yield confirm one or forecast? i.e. can it still be better ?

When it is not comfirm, then is estimates lor, can be lower or higher.

Is it possible to get into REIT via M2U's non-margin facility? My FD will mature by year end and REIT seems to have acceptable risks. I Googled around and found very little information on REITs in Malaysia. Is there any guides for total newbie?

The projected rates are more or less the market practices.

Once you include a confirmation in black and white, then you are putting yourself on the chopping board, i.e unlimited numbers of investors could sue you one.

That is why investors need to read a fair bit to feel what is going on in the market. Those who promise you tons of returns are just beginners or people have not experienced the trade cycles enough . That is why, the Chinese believe you need to eat certain amount of salts to grow up.

Unless you can see the future with a crystal ball, then it is an exception.

It can be best case or worst case estimates

Thus in this case, maybe need to know their first result to actually know the "real" DPU since we don't have track record. Also, there was mentioned of stabilising managers still keeping the price within targets. So maybe when they stop doing their "work" we will know what the actual market thinks

Reit earning projection won't run too far away.

As reit is not running a business, that subjected to a lot of uncertainty which for ordinary company, revenue and profit figure can fluctuate greatly,
Reit just renting out the properties, just like you rent you properties, while normally tenancy agreement or lease is signed on the basic of 1 year, 2years, 3 years or so. So your revenue is highly predicted.
There is little surprise on both the upside and downside unless there is a change of lease agreement, or expiration of it or tenants default it.

So, what is cmmt going to do with the funds they raised? Acquire more property for rental , pay debt, etc?

Total newbies will be ignored. You must at least pretend you know something.

The IPO money goes to CapitalMalls Asia Sg, the parent company, whereby they are selling their stake in CMMT to public in the IPO.

The IPO money is not going to CMMT.

Rates though could be projected with certain accuracy but not easy to explain the tax structure part esp some tax allowances could have been given.

If it is a 0.05sen in DPU ( diff ) out due to tax structure, quite a hard time to explain or understand on that part.

If not , some forms of doubts remain in the mind of the investors.

That is what the marketing people do not like to do.

Malaysians somehow want 100% accuracy .
