RE:RE:Gift for us long time holders
RE:RE:Gift for us long time holdersThere are two transactions here that I would like to split the hair.
1. Deferred distribution. The payment for March 2020 was deferred. If you did not registred as owner before the Mar 2020 ex-div date, you will not entitle to. If you do, it will be paid Dec this year whether you own it now or not. It is like preferred share with dividend deferred feature. The company write an IOU and it will be paid out when it is possible.There is a tax question. Is this 2020 income or 2021 income?
2. Supended distribution. During the suspension period, there is no distribution approved by the board of directors. If you own the units during the suspension period, you will not receive deferred distribution because there is none.
