Quick takes from around the market
REITs [link] have been absolutely hammered recently, and most (except for AREIT [AREIT 40.50 8.00%], which is still above, and DDMP [DDMPR 1.63], which is still below) are trading very near their IPO prices after long periods of significant over-performance. Is this a response to the government’s signal that it will be stepping up with another round of interest rate increases in short order? I know some that have speculated that the REIT “tide” is low because people are drawing out of existing REITs to get into VREIT, but I’m not so sure the on-the-street temperature reads that I’m taking support that analysis. REIT investors aren’t normally so flighty, but this is our first time going through a period of instability like this with REITs on the exchange, so it’s new for everyone.
Century Peak Holdings [CPM 2.78 0.36%] [link] FY21 profit was up 196% to P255 million. Looks like the extra time it took to prepare the report might have been worth it? I haven't taken a closer look to see what's what, though.
Leisure & Resorts World [LR 1.28 3.03%] [link] FY21 profit was up 36% to a smaller net loss of P828 million. At least it wasn’t a billion this time? So, maybe that wait was also worth it? Ok, so maybe that thesis doesn’t always apply.
