Bought more today.

Don't listen to me.  So far I am Dead wrong.  I sold all my Reits at a nice gain and bought Mrt.un.  Now I am 12% under water, as I bought a much higher prices.  Should have stopped buying when it dropped below $7.  Feel like an idiot, as I kept averaging down.

They say "Every Dog has its day".  Hoping "I" am that Dog and has its day. 

I believe the management is just not into promotion, rather sticks to good reporting.
They took more writedowns than their peers and will have to take write ups going forward.
Refinancing are lower rates.  Renovating annually.  Some positive and some negative lease renewals.  Decent cash flow of over $1 per share annualized.  Remember, they have paid this for many years.  Book value is $18 per share.  Trading price does not make sense to me.
I am hoping this is deep value.  Hardly any analyst are following yet.

Have nervously got my fingers crossed.

They are new accounting rules called IFRS.  They require that the company make reasonable estimates of their property values.  The company adjusts their book value to reflect the quater end values.  They have both in house and external valuations that are cleared with the independant auditors annually.  Maybe quarterly as well. It is the $18 per Book value that makes this a ...more

The shorts will test the patience of longs. Who wants to hold a declining stock or one dripping when so much else is rising, right? I own BBD which was in the throes of looming bankruptcy for 2.5 years. It too had a huge short, but the company prevailed, restructured and refinanced their debt and is up 788% over the last year. Sometimes, all you need is patience.
