- Proactive reshuffling of portfolio. Since the start of the year, CREIT has completed four acquisitions, divested 30 Tuas Road and completed both the asset enhancement initiatives (AEIs) at 88 International Road and 4/6 Clementi Loop. Meanwhile, the acquisition of Teban Gardens Crescent (with an initial yield of 8.2%), sale of 63 Hillview Avenue, AEI at 21B Senoko Loop and development at 3 Pioneer Sector 3 are scheduled for completion in 4Q13, 3Q13, 1Q15 and 4Q14 respectively. This proactive re-shuffling of assets has beefed up CREIT’s portfolio as well as benefitted unitholders with a higher dividend payout and brighter outlook.
- Proposed sale of 63 Hillview Avenue. CREIT recently announced the divestment of its holdings at 63 Hillview Ave for SGD140.8m (28% higher than book value). This is a positive since the proceeds could be invested in higher-yielding assets versus the 2.3% (based on the selling price) yield from this property. Although it may be difficult to buy yield-accretive assets these days, we believe it could still be yield accretive for unitholders if the entire proceeds are used to trim outstanding debt, which currently carry an all-in cost of c. 4%. The company may also lower its overall gearing to c. 27.7% if it utilizes all of the proceeds to repay borrowings.
- Room to trim debt cost. During the results briefing, Management said it is currently in advanced talks with various banks to refinance debts amounting to SGD308m due next year. After divesting its property at Hillview and ending up with SGD140m cash in hand, we believe CREIT will be in a strong position to negotiate for a better rate and possibly lower its all-in interest cost to < 4%

Lam Soon finally sold
While the divestment price of Lam Soon may marginally disappoint investors looking forward to its sale as a residential site, the sale should still be a positive given the greater certainty of value-unlocking in its entirety and accretion from the use of divestment proceeds.

Another bad day. It drop almost 7%
  I read this from my friend's blog. He is also investor in Cambridge
Why Singapore REIT drop so badly ?
Today Singapore industrial REIT drop around 7% e.g. Cambridge industrial REIT.
Fortune Reit a dual listing stock in both HK and Singapore drop nearly 7%.
The Link REIT one of the bigger commerical properties REITs in HK. It drop nearly 4%.
I invest heavily in Singapore industrial trust since 2010. I never experience such heavy drop.
Causes of  correction.
1. Margin call is NOT the main reason. I confirm with my stock broker that most REITs investors are cash rich. They buy in cash not margin trading.
2. Profit taking. REIT perform too well recently. Any correction will trigger profit taking
3. Outlook for properties are health. However,with after Singapore Government's cool down measures.  And market is expecting that US federal reserve may reduce size of QE. In result, Singapore properties market will not grow as quick as past 2 years. But REITs are trading 20 to 30% above their Net asset value. They may be consider as overvalue. Although their PE is only 10, REITs always include property value increase as their earning. If properties price don't appreciate as quick as last year, REITs earning will reduce. i.e. PE will go up.

Cambridge Industrial Trust on Thursday announced a distribution per unit (DPU) of 1.234 Singapore cents for its first quarter ended March 31, 2013, up 5.4 per cent from 1.171 cents a year ago.
" The improved performance in DPU was contributed by the additional income from the three acquisitions and completion of various developments and asset enhancement initiatives, as well as the increase in the rental from multi-tenanted properties and rental escalations," it said.
Distributable income for the quarter rose 8.4 per cent year-on-year to S$15.1 million, while net property income jumped 18.8 per cent to S$21.3 million from a year ago.
The trust also recorded higher gross revenue of S$24.8 million, up 18.6 per cent from S$20.9 million a year earlier. 
If u already have odd lots den nothing to lose what. Odd lots + more odd lots  still = odd lots.
