$MAPLETREE INDUSTRIAL TRUST(ME8U.SI)$has broken out of a multi month downtrend and started a short term uptrend. Since getting rejected at 2.72 which is also the previous horizontal resistance at 2.72, price has been trending down gradually.

$MAPLETREE INDUSTRIAL TRUST(ME8U.SI)$Reason for buying:1) Dividend 5.2%2) Quarterly dividend payout3) PB 1.37Although the PB is above 1.0 (not really my style to buy REIT above PB 1.0), however given that the Data Centres portfolio is 53% of the AUM, I find this PB1.37 is justifiable.

$CapLand IntCom T(C38U.SI)$Since hitting 1.92 low in early Feb 2022 on fears of steeper than expected interest rate hikes, CICT has been on a relentless upward climb aided by reopening news and return back to office.

Any retracement is likely to be supported around the 2.10 to 2.15 region where it traded for a good portion of 2021, barring any steeper than expected interest rate hikes. Assuming 10.4c annual divide
