Johsua Varghese - BNN - Top Pick Storagevault (SVI TSX)
Storagevault is a real estate company characterized by a strong and well-aligned management team, a unique asset class within the Canadian real estate sector, and a track record of value creation. It is the largest publicly traded owner of storage facilities in Canada, owning over 12 million square feet of storage space. After several years of double-digit net operating income growth, it has seen slowing fundamentals due to a weaker residential property market (with a resulting decrease in demand for storage space), causing the stock price to come down 33 per cent from its high in 2022. This represents a compelling entry point for an investor to get exposure to a potential recovery in residential markets as interest rates decline and invest at a good price with a well-proven management team that knows how to create value for unitholders.
