wow so pessimistic, lots of $ in the market, no worries :)
INDIA BULLS TO LAUCH BIGGEST IPO IN YEARS - 1.7 B IN SPORE
JTC TO LAUCH IN MID 2008
WHEN THAT HAPPENS LIQUIDITY IN REITS WILL BE SUCKED UP DRY
CURRENT REITS WILL SLOWLY FALL ALSO
Now no more such transaction
Price supported by dividend only
after that, it should drop
Do you thing it will have somemore positive impact on this counter in the days to come?
This may be the reason for the sudden surge in prices for the past few days

When is ex-dividend date for this counter? But I have read through PEOM and DBS forcast, fair value at least at $1.20 per share. Don't know for how long. Can someone comment on this?
what soloman say its true as it is true for all counters.
Almost all counters will drop on the Ex Dividend date.
But if you want dividend play, as in dont wish to put in the bank and collect the 0.35% pa, this is one of the good counter to park your money
Please dont play with more than what u have. As this counter will fall after ex diviend date.
Not an inducement to buy or sell.
How does one know it will drop big time? Waiting to collect x dividend.
$0.745 closing. sign! Wait for Monday.
THIS COUNTER WILL DROP BIG TIME - IN DUE TIME AFTER THAT DIVIDEND
THERE WILL BE PLENTY OF TIME TO BUY - NO ONE WANTS IT FOR THE NEXT 6 MTHS
well, ppl start to panic sell thats well.
But with its good dividends, this counter is good if you want to keep for dividends.
if go down to 0.7 again, i will average down
cheers
down again to 0.75 today :(
Impressive. Today ends at $0.78. PEOM's fair value at $1.20 so I'll hold for this one.
more upside?
the dividends pay by this counter is even higher than those paid by Sinapore Post.

Moody's Investors Service downgraded Singapore-based Allco Commercial REIT's corporate family rating to 'Ba1' from 'Baa3' and has continued to place the rating on review for possible downgrade
"The downgrade is a result of Allco REIT's aggressive financial strategy which relied on bridging loans to support an acquisition, this strategy has subjected the trust to significant market and refinancing risks," Moody's said
