Daiwa House Logistics Trust falls to an all-time low and pays a 10% dividend yield — Will I buy this REIT?Okay so a reader wrote in recently asking me to take a look at Daiwa House Logistics Trust (DHLU) – is it a good risk-reward, given the exposure to Japan and Vietnam logistics?And I get it.The unit closed at S$0.39 on Friday, which is 51% below the S$0.80 IPO price, and as far as I can tell the lowest it has ever traded.At that price it pays a 10% trailing dividend yield, and trades at 0.62x book.So...

Nvidia, Tesla, SpaceX futures are here: How to hedge US tech exposure while holding on to your winnersFor long-term investors, one of the hardest decisions is not what to buy — but what to do when a good stock becomes volatile.That is especially true for high-growth names such as Nvidia, where short term moves can be highly volatile even when the long-term investment thesis remains intact.For an investor who already owns 100 Nvidia shares and remains bullish for the long term, the question is therefore: how much short-term risk should the portfolio take?There are a few obvious choices.Sell some shares to lock in profits. Buy put options. Or simply stay invested and ride out the volatility.There is now another possibility: keep the Nvidia shares, but temporarily short Nvidia Single Stock Futures against them.For retail investors, the key attraction is not just leverage. It may simply be the ability to reduce short-term risk without having to sell a long-term winner.In this article i wanted to discuss more about how this would work.https://financialhorse.com/nvidia-tesla-spacex-futures-are-here-how-to-hedge-us-tech-exposure-while-holding-on-to-your-winners/Financial HorseNvidia, Tesla, SpaceX futures are here: How to hedge US tech exposure while holding on to your winnersFor long-term investors, one of the hardest decisions is not what to buy — but what to do when a good stock becomes volatile.

Mapletree Industrial Trust falls 47% from highs and pays a 7% dividend yield — why isn’t the AI data centre boom helping, and will I buy?When Mapletree Industrial Trust (MIT) bought the huge data centre portfolio in 2021, I shared back then that I was not a fan.The US market is brutally competitive – I just didn’t see the competitive advantage a Singapore REIT had in buying 50% exposure to US data centres.Real estate is a local business, you just don’t have the expertise to compete with the locals over a longer time period.So back in 2021 I sold my entire position in MIT, and in hindsight I’m glad I did.But quite a few of you have asked me about MIT again of late.MIT is now 47% below its 2020 high, at a 52-week low, and it pays a 7% dividend yield.This is a REIT where more than half the assets are data centres.So… at 7% dividend yield, is it finally a good buy?https://financialhorse.com/mapletree-industrial-trust-falls-47-from-highs-and-pays-a-7-dividend-yield-why-isnt-the-ai-data-centre-boom-helping-and-will-i-buy/Financial HorseMapletree Industrial Trust falls 47% from highs and pays a 7% dividend yield — why isn’t the AI data centre boom helping, and will…When Mapletree Industrial Trust (MIT) bought the huge data centre portfolio in 2021, I shared back then that I was not a fan.

Should you defer CPF LIFE to 70 for S$2,380 a month instead of S$1,780 — is the 5-year wait worth S$107,000?Okay so when I wrote about which pot to drain first in retirement, I said that deferring CPF LIFE deserved its own article — and quite a few of you took me up on it.So here it is.CPF’s own example is a member with S$220,400 in his Retirement Account on the Standard Plan: S$1,780 a month if he starts at 65, or S$2,380 a month if he waits until 70.S$600 a month more, for life, for waiting 5 years.The catch is that those 5 years cost you 60 payouts of S$1,780 — about S$107,000 that has to come out of your own pocket instead.So 3 questions:1. At what age do you break even? 2. What do the 5 years of waiting actually cost — and does it matter where the money comes from? 3.
