  • Good News For Mortgage REITs: Debt Markets Stabilizing

    (Tue, 20 May 2008 04:51:54 -0400)

    REIT Wrecks submits:

    According to indications in the CMBS and CMBX markets, and recent reports by all three of the major ratings agencies, there are increasing signs that the commercial real estate debt markets are stabilizing. As we reported in earlier posts, the CMBX and CMBS cash markets were completely divorced from commercial RE fundamentals. Back then, seemingly a hundred years ago, there was no need for a ticket to Vegas: if you were an investor in this sector, all the adrenaline your heart desired could be had sitting right in front of your computer.

    Indeed, when nobody was looking...

  • Newcastle, RAIT Financial: The Long Case for REITs

    (Thu, 15 May 2008 07:12:39 -0400)

    Stephen Santrach submits:

    What is the best thing in the world? Perhaps it is a stock with upside potential of, say, 300% in two years, while at the same time paying you in excess of 20% just for holding it. Not to mention very low risk in comparison to how much one stands to gain.

    I just read in the Wall Street Journal that several big-name small cap mutual funds are now accepting new money for the first time in years. The reason: ridiculously low valuation on many small cap companies. The REITs that I mention below are exactly...

  • Are the Commercial REITs Now Stabilizing?

    (Thu, 08 May 2008 04:13:31 -0400)

    Prudent Speculations submits:

    It would appear from the recent quarterly reports of four commercial REITs that the credit market, at least in the ways that it affects the commerical REITs, is beginning to stabilize.  Here is a list of the four REITs that, when you consider what has happend over the last year, have reported incredible reports over the last week:

  • RAIT: From Rocky to Roaring

    (Wed, 07 May 2008 06:40:18 -0400)

    Patrick Harden submits:

    Embattled diversified REIT RAIT Financial Trust (RAS) had a dismal 2007. The stock tanked and RAIT was forced to slash its dividend almost in half. The company came roaring back with a vengeance Tuesday. For Q1 2008, adjusted earnings per diluted share, the metric which the company essentially uses to set the dividend, more than covered the most recently announced payout. Friedman Billings Ramsey analyst Merrill Ross wrote in a research report the company has proved its dividend is viable.

    The $0.07 beat on adjusted earnings and $7 million beat in investment revenue lifted the stock powerfully on Tuesday. It was...

  • REITs: Still Some Bargains Out There

    (Wed, 30 Apr 2008 07:23:17 -0400)

    Zacks.com submits:

    From time to time, we check in with Zacks senior real estate investment trust [REIT] analyst Greg Sukenik, in hopes that we may able to determine a bottom in the housing market either now or in the near future. Also, are there any REIT stocks worth owning?

    We keep hearing about the implosion of the residential housing market. Should we expect the same problems to develop in the REIT sector?

  • Mr. Market Trips on Mark to Market, Gives REITs Away

    (Mon, 10 Mar 2008 04:19:15 -0400)

    REIT Wrecks submits:

    In this bountiful era of REIT wreckage, with liquidity having virtually disappeared from the mortgage market, the auction rate securities market, and last week, even the municipal bond market, it is helpful to be reminded of the irrationality that can sometimes rule daily trading gyrations.

    According to Warren Buffett, Ben Graham, (the original legendary value investor and long time Buffett mentor) said that you should imagine market quotations as coming from a remarkably accommodating fellow named Mr. Market. Without fail, Mr. Market appears daily and names a price at which he will either buy your interest or...

  • Mortgage REITs: Ignore GAAP, It's All About the Cash

    (Fri, 29 Feb 2008 04:34:38 -0500)

    Patrick Harden submits:

    Mortgage REITs manage their businesses based on long-term opportunities to earn cash flows. Their common stock dividend distributions are driven by the REIT tax laws and their taxable income as calculated pursuant to the IRS tax code. Their reported results for GAAP purposes differ materially, however, from both their cash flows and their taxable income.

    The earnings releases today highlight just how useless GAAP currently is for evaluating a mortgage REIT's financial performance. Just by adopting FAS 159 on January 1, RAIT Financial's (RAS) GAAP book value jumps from $6.78/share to $23.35/share, simply by virtue of being able...

Mitsui's participation is expected to tally 25 billion yen in the 400 billion yen ($3.96 billion) project, which involves construction of power and water desalination facilities in the Ras Laffan Industrial City, located about 50 miles northeast of Doha, the business daily Nikkei reported Tuesday. Additional participants in the joint venture project include the Belgian unit of France's Suez and the state-run Qatar Petroleum. The project partners...
