CapitaLand Commercial Trust (SGX: C61U) is Singapore’s largest commercial real estate investment trust (REIT) with a portfolio of properties in Singapore and Germany. The REIT just announced its financial results for the second quarter ended 30 June 2019 (Q2 2019). Here are three things from its earnings which really stood out for me.

However, these were offset by Twenty Anson’s sale, and lower revenue from Bugis Village and Six Battery Road. Due to a larger increase in property opera

Please reserve your tasteless airline food for the other passengers.” Well, being the polite gentleman that I am, I would not have verbally articulated my exact thoughts when the ever-so-polite SQ lady saunters down the narrow lane during meal times. There was one particular special occasion with the missus that we flew first class and ate a bucketload of caviar, mixing that with champagne on tap. No chicken nor fish. That was awesome.

Starting from October 2019, principal repayments received from mortgage-backed securities would be reinvested in treasury securities, subject to a maximum of US$20 billion per month.
