Data Centre REIT [Written by Edmund Chan: CIO of Tiger Fund Management] DCREIT's current distress valuation of 0.61x P/B ratio could be an investment opportunity. The company is trading at low valuation due to the bankruptcy announcement from its second-largest tenant. This could be an opportunity given that concern appears to be overblown. Here are some insights: Freehold data centre REIT Tenant Bankruptcy Mitigating Worst-Case Scenarios Distress valuation Freehold data centre REIT DCREIT is a freehold data centre S-REIT with a portfolio of 11 data centres in the US, Canada and Germany.

The US inflation rate has recently declined to a more than two-year low, reaching 3% last month, marking just one-third of the level it was a year ago. This drop in inflation has led to plunging yields on short-term Treasury yields. This could indicate that the Federal Reserve is nearing the end of its hiking cycle. A beneficiary of lower interest rate is the Singapore REITs (S-REITs). Currently, the Singapore REITS is trading at 6.2% dividend yield and 0.93x P/B, as indicated by the FTSE ST All-Share Real Estate Investment Trusts Index. Below is an overview of the largest S-REITs: CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust CapitaLand Ascendas REIT Mapletree Pan Asia Commercial Trust CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust (CICT) CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust (CICT) emerged from th

Data is the new oil [By Edmund Chan: CIO of Tiger Fund Management] In a recent Citi Conference, Equinix $Equinix(EQIX)$ CEO Charles Meyers was asked for three reasons to buy Equinix. He replied with the following reasons: 1) continued long-term demand from digital transformation 2) differentiated, durable story in digital competency3) strong track record of delivering durable growth. I concur with his views. Without a doubt, Equinix is the global market leader among data centre companies. Here are some insights: Global leadership Go-to-Market Strategy Growth Potential Premium valuation Global leadership Equinix manages an impressive network of 248 data centers worldwide, with 138 owned by the company.

Pure-play data centre [By Edmund Chan: CIO of Tiger Fund Management] I remembered meeting the management of Keppel DC REIT (“KDCREIT ”) during their IPO roadshow in 2014. Since then, KDCREIT has always been a core holding in my REIT portfolio. KDCREIT has done remarkably well, generating returns of 2.5x in less than 10 years. It has outperformed the STI Index by 216%. This is an amazing feat, considering KDCREIT is a dividend stock, and not a growth stock. Early this year, with high interest surrounding ChatGPT, I was asked in an Lianhe Zaobao newspaper interview about AI-related stocks in Singapore. I immediately mentioned KDCREIT $KEPPEL DC REIT(AJBU.SI)$ . Hence, I want to re-visit the thesis of Keppel DC REIT in this post (@$2.13; 10/07).

Proxy to AI Boom [By Edmund Chan: CIO of Tiger Fund Management] A lot of AI stocks have run up. So, it is timely to look at laggard plays. I’ve decided to look at the Hong Kong market since it has lagged behind other developed markets. This year, the Hang Seng Index has declined 3% compared to 17% rise of S&P500 Index. That is where I found a gem - a company that I have followed for many years. That company is SUNeVISION. SUNeVISION $SUNEVISION(01686)$ is the largest data center company in Hong Kong. The ongoing AI boom will result in a surge of data usage and, correspondingly, lead to higher demand for data centers. This will greatly benefit SUNeVISION (@$4.04; 03/07 Close). Here are some insights: Largest data center company in Hong Kong M

Top AI stock pick [By Edmund Chan: CIO of Tiger Fund Management] Here’s a thought experiment. Will you invest in a company that is: A combination of “Google” + “Azure/AWS” + “Tesla” + “OpenAI” + “Netflix” Operates in the second largest economy in the world Trades at 13x P/E and 13% EPS growth If your answer is a resounding “Yes”, Baidu $Baidu(BIDU)$ will be one of your top stock picks. The share price of Chinese companies has experienced a severe downturn in the past 3 years. The market cap of Alibaba has crashed 75% from its peak of $840 billion. While this is a lamentable state of affairs for some, I believe this is an excellent opportunity to invest into Chinese companies. In this space, my top pick is Baidu (@$122.85; 31/05 Close). And I w
