RE:RE:RE:Company still 58% lower than 52 week highDon't know what makes you think they cut the dividend because the stock price dropped. That wouldn't make much sense since they'd have no idea how long the stock price would be down.
What they said at the time was:
"To preserve our balance sheet strength and liquidity position in the current market environment, PROREIT's Board of Trustees decided to revise our distribution policy in order to lower both our payout and debt ratios."
In the last quarter PRIOR to COVID, the payout ratio was 110% which probably wasn't sustainable, particularly now that some rents are not being collected or have been deferred.
Overall, I still think this company offers good value, but I wouldn't expect a distribution increase anytime soon.
