RE:RE:RE:RE:See what a bunch of bs it wasAlthough most people believed that the dividend was safe there was definitely some uncertainty with regards to the safety.. I am 100% sure about that in the investment community.. people that own a stock believe in it and tend to believe that there is no way their company that they own and have their hard-earned money invested in will ever cut the dividend.... but here we are and I guess the uncertainty is now gone they have left the dividend at a very sustainable level and still a decent amount of payment to shareholders.. my gut tells me there might be some downside but it may not be very significant I'm going to say a dollar a share but long-term I think there are no worries and could actually help the company with this cut

I believe this is about borrowing more money. When you borrow money, lenders have conditions. For reits, that usually includes payout restrictions under 80. Their is more to this story

I don't think ample liquidity is consistent with a 33% distribution cut. Particularly surprising when we now know there is a vaccine that works, and will be rolled out over the next six months.
This stock is up 23% since the vaccine news...how much of that does it give back tomorrow? And do the other REITs go down with it???
