<ul>
<li>US market continues to see historical high; in the real estate space, we look at Prologis, the world’s largest logistics company</li>
<li>We like the sector on the back of strong structural demand drivers and depleting supply.  Logistics is the future and we think Prologis is the name to own</li>
<li>Broader real estate index is up 8.3% YTD, while PLD is down -15% YTD.  Valuation is attractive, we think PLD has room to catch up</li>

China Resources Land Limited, through its subsidiaries, develops and invests in properties.  The Company also provides corporate financing and electrical engineering services.

<ul>
<li>China NPC meeting ended, with new policy mostly focused on debt, causing market disappointment.  We think China has to boost local consumption, as trade may see downside in future</li>
<li>While we like COLI which is a pure residential developer, another leading developer, China Resources Land, which operates retail malls, offers investor additional exposure to consumption recovery in China</li>
<li>Equity placement is a potential risk, however we think there is upside for the stock as long as it trades below HKD35 per share</li>

Link REIT is a real estate investment trust in Hong Kong. The Trust owns and operates shopping centers, parking space facilities and real estate retail space.

<ul>
<li>Under a rate cut cycle, REITs historically outperform as risk free rates going down and share price would go up to maintain the same interest rate spread</li>
<li>Besides, the rate cut cycle would provide ample room for Link REIT to carry out more M&amp;As and expand its portfolio, to drive earnings and DPU growth</li>
<li>Link REIT currently offers 6.6% yield, and we think there is at least 15-20% upside from current valuation</li>
</ul>

<ul>
<li>As the largest real estate company in Hong Kong, Sun Hung Kai Properties has well diversified businesses in Hong Kong and China</li>
<li>SHKP is viewed as a Hong Kong proxy because of its business origination.  Also, a trade on SHKP is a value play</li>
<li>Macro backdrop is supportive.  We think the potential for downside surprise is very limited, and valuation is undemanding</li>
