SINGAPORE (Feb 20): Over the past week, the spike in 10-year bonds and fears over inflation has caused the Singapore REIT (S-REIT) index to decline by about 7%.
In a Tuesday report, DBS analyst Derek Tan believes that the recent sell-off is largely done.
Despite the sharp correction reminding investors about close to 22% decline in S-REIT prices back in 2003, Tan believes that this time, it&rsquo s different.
This comes on the back of stronger property fundamentals for most subsectors (office, hotels, industrials) supporting higher rentals/RevPAR, driving higher distribution growth rate.
&ldquo The increased income visibility and upside to earnings will, in our view, translate into tighter yield spreads going forward,&rdquo says Tan.
Amongst the S-REITs, DBS prefers the office and hospitality sectors as the outlook for office rents and hotel room rates remain bright following the recent results season.
&ldquo We believe the office sector will provide the best leverage to the cyclical upturn in the Singapore economy, while the hospitality sector will offer the fastest-growing DPU,&rdquo says Tan
Hence, DBS is maintaining its &ldquo overweight&rdquo rating on the office and hospitality REITs with its top office picks being  CapitaLand Commercial Trust  (CCT),  Suntec REIT  and  Frasers Commercial Trust  (FCOT), with target prices of $2.10, $2.30 and $1.71 respectively.
For hotel REITs, the research house&rsquo s top picks are  CDL Hospitality Trusts  (CDREIT) and  Frasers Hospitality Trust  (FHT) with target prices of $2.00 and 89 cents respectively.
The analyst also advocates investors being overweight on  Ascendas REIT  (AREIT) and  Mapletree Logistics Trust  (MLT), as they are consistent performers that are also leveraged to the cyclical upturn.
Furthermore, the research house also likes  Frasers Centrepoint Trust  (FCT) for its strong DPU growth.
The analyst also advocates investors to relook the retail sector in 2H18 as a stronger Singapore economy may translate into stronger retail sales and boost sentiment in the sector.
&ldquo We believe once investors refocus on the improving property fundamentals, a re-rating will occur. Thus, the current weakness is a buying opportunity,&rdquo says Tan.
Currently, there has been no major changes in the positive outlook for the various property sub-segments in Singapore, due to a more buoyant economic environment and easing supply pressures.
This resulted in the return and acceleration of DPU growth for S-REITs.
Hence, the analyst believes that the prospects for tightening of yield spreads towards a normalised 3% by year-end remains intact.
&ldquo In addition, our DBS economists remain of the view that the US Federal Reserve should remain measured with its rate hikes and have maintained their assumption of three rate hikes which is in line with consensus expectations,&rdquo says Tan.
Since the house view is that the increase in interest rates will be measured and inflation will remain under control, Tan believes that the current share price weakness is an opportunity for investors to accumulate as the return of growth and investors refocusing on property fundamentals rather than macro should result in a compression of yields by year-end.
Moreover, following the recent correction, S-REITs&rsquo valuations have become more attractive considering it is potentially the start of a multi-year recovery in various sub-property markets.

Usually when will FED announce the interest rate thing?
She has been falling in a one-way ticket fashion for not 7 days or 7 weeks or 7 months but for 7 long years.
Long enough for everyone who is stuck in her to earn one right to have an itch. 
So I dont think there is any issue of too critical to fail in her case.

Is Hyflux the kind of company too critical to fail because of the critical industrial sector it is in. 
Consider if it goes haywire then some mid-east countries have to go barter oil for water.

Veg,
When you trade or invest, never fall in love with a stock or hate it.  Whether we buy stock A or stock B, we are here for the money.
We have no personal interest to see either company grow to scale new heights or to become an industry leader the way a founder   
of the company would. We are simply here for the money. That' s all. That being the case, stocks are to be treated like workers.   
When you place money with a worker, you expect him to put your money to work to make more money for you. Those workers
who outperform will get a higher allocation of your funds. Those who underperform will see you pull out your money from  them   
and they will be out of work.   
Stocks are like vehicles.You use them to help you to get to your destination. If you happen to be in a slower moving vehicle and you
see other faster vehicles overtaking you from behind and speeding ahead, you disembark from your slow moving vehicle and hop onto
a faster moving vehicle.  And if the vehicle you are in has broken down and is lying stationary at the road shoulder or worse, the brakes
have completely failed and it is rolling backwards down a hill, you need to jump out of that vehicle whilst you still can before it crashes
into a tree or goes down a ravine.   
Just becoz stock A has lost money for you does not mean you must die die make stock A make back the money for you. Becoz stock A
may not only be unable to make back the loss, it may continue to lose more of your money. So, dont hate a stock such that you insist that
it  make good whatever loss it has made. You are here for the money. You have lost a certain sum of money. Your immediate objective now
is to make back that money. Can stock A do that job?  If there is a better stock out there which  can do the job better, then you, as the owner
of the  capital, must pull out whatever is left of your capital in stock A and give it to the stock which can do the job better.  Pulling out your
capital from stock A will also mean taking a loss. That' s a temporary pain. It is one-off. The moment you put the remaining capital in stock B
and it starts to make money for you, you will immediately feel much better and in time, you will reach breakeven and recover all your losses.
But if you dont pull out your capital and you continue to rely on stock A to perform a miracle, chances are stock A will continue to roll backwards
down the hill and eat up more and more of your capital. It is pure mental anguish to see your capital diminishing day after day. When your money
is on a weak stock, your money is like a piece of ice cube -- it melts away and become smaller and smaller.
There are some stocks in our STI which never fail to rebound, rain or shine. These stocks will follow the broader market sentiments up and down
and ride on the crests and troughs of market cycles. If you buy such a stock at the wrong time and it goes down, you can hold and LOON and wait
till the broader market makes a U-turn. Your stock will follow the market cycle and come back up again. And your boat will float again with the rising
tide. But there are also stocks in our STI which fall and fall and never recover. One day, they will stop falling. And then hover down there and be forgotten
by the market. There, they will join the ranks of the illiquid stocks - the desert of our STI. A desert because nobody goes there.
This is her 10-Yr chart.

This vehicle lost its brakes and has been rolling backwards down the hill ever since 2011. The constructon of the descending staircase started some
7 years ago and construction is still ongoing. Despite falling for 7 years, there is no sign of the staircase landing on the ground floor. On hindsight,
those who cut their losses in 2017 are glad they did so and wish they had done it earlier. But better late than never. And those who cut their losses
in 2011 would have re-invested their remaining capital many times over between 2011 and 2018.
So guys, remember this when you play this game - Never Love Or Hate A Stock. You are here for the money. Not for the stock. The stock which can
make the most money for you, gets the job.
Wishing all a Happy Lunar New Year.

Hi Veg,
I dont trade or follow or monitor Hyflux. So I cant offer any comments as far as price action is concerned. But based on chart, she sure look
like a descending staircase to me.

Prior to March, she was trading higher but she fell. After that she went thru a rather long period of consolidation from March to July
but was going nowhere. It was like as if people who were stuck were waiting and hoping for a miracle to happen...a sudden spike
to throw them a lifeline to get out. But that lifeline never came. Convinced that this counter will never recover, some holders gave 
up and sell. Hence, the plunge in mid-July from 53 cts to 46 cts.
After that plunge came another long period of consolidation from mid-July to mid-November. Those who cut prior to this plunge were
very glad they did whilst those who didnt wish they had done so. But the rest were still hopeful of a miracle. And so they waited.
Then came another plunge in mid-November ... this one was deep...from 48 cts to 35 cts followed by yet another two months of
consolidation from Decrmber to January. Then yet another plunge from 36 cts to 30.5 cts... which brings us to.... WHAT NEXT?
If you take a step back and look at the big picture, the chart looks like a staircase which is being constructed from left to right and 
people are going down that staircase. And construction of that staircase is still ongoing. We havent reached the staircase landing
on the ground floor yet. 
I suppose you are stuck in this one and are wondering what to do. I wont tell you what you should do. But I can tell you what I will
do  if I am stuck in this one with my own money. And what I will do is to cut and salvage what' s left of my capital. Then wait for that
last leg down to come and go in the days or weeks ahead. When it comes, Ascendas will likely fall to the Area of Support at 2.44
to 2.53. Depending on the intensity of the selldown...how bearish the market is... how weak sentiments are... how much bleeding
is happening out there across all segments of the market... dont be in a hurry to buy when the price is at 2.53. Wait for it to creep
nearer to 2.44. This is if the market is very weak and sentiments are very bearish.
Hope this helps.
