Singapore REIT Fundamental Analysis Comparison Table – 1 Mar 2014

  • Post author:

FTSE ST Real Estate Investment Trusts (FTSE ST REIT) Index changes from 696.54 to 714.18 compare to last post on Singapore REIT Fundamental Comparison Table on Feb 8, 2014. The index is trading below 200D SMA (and sloping down) and technically bearish but consolidating within a Descending Triangle. Breaking down from this Descending Triangle will trigger more selling of Singapore REITs.

FTSE ST REIT Index Mar1-2014

  • Price/NAV decreases from 0.9471 to 0.9687.
  • Dividend Yield increases from  6.80% to 6.84%.
  • Gearing Ratio increases from  33.93% to 34.00%.
  • In general, most Singapore REIT is slightly under value now and the distribution yield is attractive (but with risks). Most of the Singapore REITs are trading in a consolidation range and seems like waiting for the next big move base on technical analysis and chart pattern.
  • There are two negative points to take note when investing in Singapore REITs:
    • Overall sentiment is negative for Singapore REITs. This can be seen from the the FTSE ST Real Estate Investment Trust Index and FTSE ST Real Estate Index.
    • The uncertainty in term of interest hike in near future remains high as Federal has started the QE tapering. Any hike in interest will affect the distribution income (reduction), NAV (value drops) and also the gearing ratio (increase) of the REIT. All of these will weaken the fundamental of the REIT and affect the REIT share price.
  • However there are some REITs in Singapore have been managing their debt maturity profile pretty well and have minimum impact if there is an increase in interest rate. The DPU should not be affected much and the risk of DPU reduction is minimal. The key thing here is how to find out those “Gem” by applying the right method to analyse the Risks.

How You Can Take Your Trading To an Olympic Level

  • Post author:

The average trader always has money on the mind. Money, money, money. A couple more points. A sexy balance sheet.

That’s also why they’re average. The best of the best aren’t thinking about money at all. Let’s use an analogy to prove this point.

What happens to an Olympian who’s always looking up at the scoreboard or clock? They lose the puck, fall behind another skier, or miss their landing. What happens to the Olympian who is focused on improving their game, making the right pass, hitting the right turn, and nailing their landing? They win.

This is no different than trading. Money is the byproduct. We all know that. But focusing on the byproduct doesn’t get you any closer to it. To take your trading to an Olympian level, you must remove yourself from the bottom line and focus on what makes you better. If you can’t do that, go liquidate your brokerage account. You shouldn’t be trading.

This Saturday, you can take that first step towards the gold. At 10:00am EST, the Olympic Trading Summit will bring you a full day of free trading education via live webcast.

You’ll have the opportunity to focus on improving your strategies and learning new ones. The educators will be some of the brightest and most experience traders in their respective areas. Options, Equities, and ETFs will be the focus and everything from swing trading to options spreads will be covered.

The good guys over at Marketfy are putting the event on and they’re providing invites to all our readers. The event, which is being sponsored by MBTrading and Benzigna Pro, will have a bunch of freebies, promotions, and offers for those in attendance.

Pro Tip: Enter the room by 9:45am EST if you want to get in. The room caps at 1300 attendees and it only took 45 minutes to get there the last time they did this.
