MRT is all commercial. They also cut twice early during the pandemic so they are done. INO cut 50% last fall and has since dropped another 35%. I might nibble a bit here but I'd really want this under $3 before getting serious on this based on their peers and sector sentiment. Just saying, don't shoot the essenger.

The market essentially hates the sector. While the distribution is quite tasty here, I wonder if there isn't another cut on the horizon. SOT.UN did a 70% cut. These really are all a big gamble now.

I continue to believe work from home-office will settle down in a hybrid mode. A lot of companies will need to downsize their sq. footage to accommodate the new model post covid.

Their own confidence in their own product will spread to their own investors.

Gamble is greatly diminished at these prices, and with the 50% dividend cut 3 weeks ago I highly doubt another one is coming any time soon.  SOT.un cutting 20% more really isn't significant as their management team are incompetent bozos.
MRT.un is a different animal being residential? but its yield sucks as do most of the residential reits.  I'd never own any of them.  All the risk of a real estate meltdown with little reward. The residential space is where you should want to be, but with such paltry yields you may as well be in banks as they yield about the same if not more.
The office space definitely has its medium term challenges, and may never recover completely, but 8.9% yield post cut with a 100% ROC taxation says buy the fear to me.   

 

No worries we all have different opinions and risk tolerances. For some reason I thought MRT was residential.  It being commercial it has held up very very well.
