My personal thoughts & executed for SG REITs with reinvestment option:
1. IF the price of reinvesment is "NOT of value" (up to U to decide - be it based on net DY%, Price vs NAV, etc.), then no lor
2. IF decision (1) is to reinvest, THEN am i OK with holding Odd Lots?
ie. will i be sitting on this for looooong term, thus odd lots dont bother me?
3. Execute reinvest or get $

Simplistic thinking heheh

Pinky - alcohol affects estrogen & testosterone levels neh. In addition, alcohol encourages calories to be stored as energy (ie. fat).
Will impact your goal to acquire muscle mass / ripped physique

Hug amoi encourages testosterone levels though not as much as destroyed by alcohol.
Logical conclusion: Just go for the amoi

Sorry mods
okok back to REITs..
Thank gawd i switched ALL my REIT funds to CIMB Principal Global Titans Fund (developed market)
+ chopped any REITs getting me below 7%pa net DY and moved to ETFs (SGX + OZ)... for me, "blind luck beats skill" this round.
Was doing a total portfolio rebalancing based on my new CWA planner's advise <thanks Gina >

Gark-san, anoneh - some folks here have stated "REITs are for dividends. Price fall get more", nuts of steel.
I bet they are making a killing now by totally disregarding capital loss neh

Yup agreed.

I'm just saluting those that can totally ignore price drops (ie. no cut loss) - "nuts of steel" .
eg. bought then price dropped >10% BUT not enough for DY to be >10%pa like yester-years to buy lelong

How's your approach Cherroy?
Buy until a certain DY
THEN hold on for dear life OR there's a cut-loss somewhere in case mistakes made?
Can share some ideas / reasonings / logic for learning purposes?

Guys, i'm a bit confused (as usual ).

a. When interest rates threatens to go up or gone up, REITs prices went down.
VS
b. i read hard assets (ie. properties) demand usually goes up as a hedge against rising interest rates / inflation.

so.. in an increasing interest rate scenario (a.) happens to a point then (b.) kicks in?
or
(a.) only, no (b.)?
OR
REITs <> hard properties?
