NYSE:PLD
This owns industrial warehouses and distribution centres, which they rent out to companies. In 2008, the stock fell down to $1-$2 per share, so it is very much a cyclical play. Wouldn’t buy any of the industrial REITs, but would prefer looking at an apartment REIT such as Apartment Investment & Management (AIV-N), which will give you the same kind of returns, with a lot less risk.
Industrial warehousing is one of his favourite asset classes. It caught up to its net asset value some time ago. He prefers DIR.UN-T Industrial and WIR.U-T REIT.
