Quirky vehicle that needs to find a better home. Assets in France. Too small to be in the public market. Would be better off privatized, which should happen. Seeing nice recovery in occupancy and valuations in European office.

Difficult to own. Commercial real estate in Europe. Strategy of owning secondary assets was not the best. Cut distribution. Unless you have a high risk tolerance, don't add to your portfolio.

Inovalis (INO.UN-T) or Dream Global (DRG.UN-T)? There is probably too much duplication to own both. These assets are a little more spread out, and concentrated in France. Instead of buying Canadian names that have exposure to Europe, he is actually going directly into Europe and buying some names.

(Market Call Minute.) This is France and Germany. It all depends on your view of BREXIT. Thinks it is a little bit complicated.

(Market Call Minute) Global name probably preferred to DRG.UN-T, which was commented on earlier in the show.

A small company, all France and a little bit of Germany. A very interesting way to play if you think office tenants will be leaving London and going over to Paris. They do have a larger asset manager behind them. He likes management and the properties. If you believe that something is going to happen and that Paris will benefit from BREXIT, then yes this is the name. He is a little concerned about the French economy.

A Paris and German office REIT, and a great vehicle for being focused in Europe. Has done quite well over recent times. A little too small for him. A very successful private company managing a lot of money and this is a vehicle they use for part of their funding.

A very cheap stock but also very small and very illiquid. However, it is showing good value right now. It is hard to get an interest or find a catalyst on what is going to move this forward.

It is too small for him. You can invest in Paris and Germany without opening accounts. There has been some pushback from fears that the French economy is stalling somewhat. The portfolio is very good quality, however. It is part of a much larger group of companies.

This is a French company. They own one building in Germany and the rest are assets are in Paris.
Although the REIT is quite small there is a large backer who manages pension assets with other relationships in Paris and who is able to vend properties into the REIT. Thinks the drop is probably
due to Europe. He is not crazy about France. The whole move in the socialist government and the anti-business sentiment is dangerous.
