Prologis (PLD-N) has garnered mixed reviews from experts, with some highlighting its reasonable valuation and potential growth within the e-commerce and logistics sectors, particularly in data centers and distribution centers. One expert suggests monitoring a $130 trendline before making an investment, indicating a cautious but optimistic view. Another acknowledges the lack of REITs in his portfolio and suggests looking towards storage and logistics-focused areas for growth. However, one expert expresses disappointment with Prologis, citing it as 'dead money' over the past year, where the only return received was a modest 3% dividend. Overall, the company appears to have a solid foundation, but investor sentiment varies significantly.
The largest global industrial REIT. Majority of assets in North America, but they have exposure to Europe and Asia. They had a 12 quarter plan that they achieved in 10 quarters with respect to their leverage, quality of assets and the land they have on their balance sheet. Thinks the market is not recognizing the quality of business and the upside to free cash flow growth. This is a unique opportunity to buy this one.
World’s largest owner, operator and developer of industrial assets. Majority of assets continue to be in the US, which is growing at a clip much higher than any other developed country. Benefiting that, there has been very little in the way of new supply of industrial real estate in the US. As well, they operate in some of the core coastal markets as well as the core markets where there are transportation hubs and delivery hubs. They are seeing occupancy and rental increases. The most important thing going forward is that they have right sized the business from a balance sheet and payout ratio as well. Dividend yield of 3.24%.
(A Top Pick March 19/14. Up 10.53%.) Largest global owner of industrial real estate. It is the best run industrial REIT in the world. Trading below its NAV of around $44 per share. He thinks one of the biggest beneficiaries of the US economic recovery is going to be industrial real estate. One of the biggest beneficiaries of the large e-commerce push is going to be industrial real estate as well. Their global footprint is very important. This still screens as very attractive.
