For the first two trading sessions of June, the STI rallied 4% to 2611.6, trimming its 2020 YTD total return to a decline of 18%. Since the 23 March low, the STI has traded as high as 2671.6 on 17 April. 
	 </li>
	<li>
Eight of the STI’s least performing STI stocks for the first five months of 2020 were among the STI’s 10 strongest over the past two days. CDL, which declined 30% over the first five months of 2020, rallied 10% over the past two days with S$25 million net institutional inflow. 
	 </li>
	<li>
At the same time, the SPDR STI ETF has achieved a significant milestone -  reaching S$1 billion in funds size, representing a record high since its launch in 2002. In the 2020 year through to 2 June, the SPDR STI ETF has attracted net inflows of S$328 million. 
	 
	One of the simplest indications of potential portfolio rebalancing is when laggards become leaders and vice-versa. Such activity has been clearly evident across the Straits Times Index (‘STI’) constituents for the first two sessions of June. 
	Over the first two session of June, the STI has generated a total return of 4.1% which has brought its decline in total return in the 2020 year to 2 June to 17.6%. Further declines in the US Dollar with muted moves in US 10 year notes, have also led support to the FTSE ASEAN All-Share Index, which gained 2.9% over the past two sessions. As of the Tuesday close, the STI was 2.2% below the 17 April high of 2671.6 and 18.3% above the 23 March low of 2208.4.  
	Over the past two sessions STI constituents saw the following activity: 
	 
	</li>
	<li>City Developments, Thai Beverage PCL, Singapore Airlines, Sembcorp Industries, ComfortDelGro Corp, Hongkong Land Holdings, SATS And Jardine Strategic Hldgs were amongst the STI’s 10 strongest stocks after ranking amongst the STI’s least strongest 10 stocks for the first five months of 2020. Together the eight stocks averaged a 7.7% total return over the two sessions. 
	 </li>
	<li>CapitaLand and Dairy Farm International Holdings were also amongst the 10 strongest stocks of the session with respective gains of 8.7% and 8.4%. 
	 </li>
	<li>Mapletree Logistics Trust, Ascendas REIT and Wilmar International were the strongest STI constituents in the first five months of 2020 with average total returns of 7.7%, and were all amongst the least performing five STI stocks over the past two sessions with an average total return of 0.1%.  
	The performances of the STI stock, sort by total returns over the past two sessions are tabled below.

	 </li>
	<li>
For the March quarter, MLT and MIT unveiled a DPU of 2.048 and 2.850 Singapore cents, up 1.2% YoY and down 7.5% YoY respectively.

Outlook

Ascendas REIT

<ul>
<li>Overall portfolio occupancy rate improved QoQ to 91.7%, up from 90.9% as at 30 December 2019, thanks to the higher occupancy rate of 88.6%, vs 87.2% in end-December, in its Singapore portfolio, due to stronger demand for logistics space.</li>
	<li>For its overseas portfolio, occupancies were relatively stable at 97.3% in Australia, 92.9% in the US,  and 97.5% in the UK.</li>
	<li>Its portfolio achieved a positive rental reversion of 8.0% for renewed leases in multi-tenant buildings in 1Q FY2020.</li>
	<li>A-REIT’s liquidity position remains robust. In the event of an extended COVID-19 impact, it has in its reserves S$490 million, comprising S$290 million in cash and S$200 million in committed facilities, to cover any shortfall.</li>
	<li>It is uncertain when COVID-19 will be contained and businesses will return to normal. Realistically, more challenges and uncertainty are to be expected.</li>

Mapletree Logistics Trust

<ul>
<li>For its top three core markets, all tenants remain fully operational in Hong Kong and Japan, while about 5% of its tenant base in Singapore is impacted. Tenants from retail, hospitality and travel industries, which account for about 10% of revenue, are the hardest hit. Those who serve essential daily needs, such as F&amp;B products, consumer staples and healthcare, continue to see healthy activity levels, and account for over 30% of MLT’s revenue.</li>
	<li>MLT’s diversified geographic presence and tenant trade sector mix provide resilience to the portfolio. To-date, overall occupancy levels have stayed relatively resilient at 98.0%, while rental rates have been stable.</li>
	<li>Debt due in the coming financial year amounts to S$242 million or 6% of total debt. Based on the available committed credit facilities of over S$700 million, it has more than sufficient resources to meet its maturing debt obligations.</li>

Mapletree Industrial Trust

<ul>
<li>Average Overall Portfolio occupancy for the March quarter increased to 91.5% from 90.9% in the preceding quarter, due to the Singapore portfolio. The North American portfolio occupancy also improved following addition of 10 powered shell data centres held under Mapletree Rosewood Data Centre Trust, which were 100% leased.</li>
	<li>MIT will support its tenants in Singapore with a COVID-19 Assistance and Relief Programme of up to S$13.7 million. This is in addition to approximately S$10.5 million property tax rebates of 100% and 30% for qualifying commercial premises and non-residential properties respectively, which will be fully passed on to all tenants in Singapore.</li>
	<li>About 55% of MIT’s Singapore Portfolio (or 45% of the overall portfolio) are SME tenants. If the pandemic drags on, these tenants may seek relief under the COVID-19 (Temporary Measures) Act. As at 31 March 2020, the rental arrears ratio remained stable at 0.2% of the previous 12 months’ gross revenue. This ratio will increase if more SME tenants seek temporary relief under the Act.</li>
	<li>MIT’s large diversified tenant base with low dependence on any single tenant or trade sector will continue to underpin its resilience. The long leases with high-quality tenants in MIT’s data centres in Singapore and North America, comprising about 31.6% of its portfolio, will provide an added boost.</li>

Best-Performing Temasek-Linked Stocks in Past Decade

CapitaLand Ascendas REIT / Equity Bottom-Up





Keppel DC REIT, Mapletree Logistics Trust &amp; Parkway Life REIT have generated gains in the 2020 YTD, leading the overall S-REIT Sector which has averaged a 22% decline over the period, with an average 38% decline to 23 March, and an average 28% gain from 23 March to 27 April.  
	 
	
Keppel DC REIT, Mapletree Logistics Trust &amp; Parkway Life REIT are also amongst the 22 S-REITs that report more than a third of their revenue to Singapore. Of the 22 S-REITs, 14 have been listed for the past 10 years with average annualised total returns of 7%.   
	 
	
In line with its capital recycling strategy and in order to realise profits that can be redeployed to capture new opportunities, Keppel T&amp;T has entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement with a placement agent for the sale of 38 million units in Keppel DC REIT at S$2.42 per Sale Unit. 


 

With a combined market value of S$90 billion, S-REITs make up 11% of the market capitalisation of all stocks in Singapore. Growing investor participation in recent years has seen REITs contributing 29% of daily turnover in the 2020 year to 27 April.

The majority of the S-REIT market capitalisation and S$425 million in average daily turnover in the 2020 year to 27 April is made up of the 22 REITs or Stapled Trusts that report at least one-third of their revenue to Singapore.



      
    
    Revenue Exposure

There has been less distinction in the 2020 year-to-date total returns, with the 22 S-REITs that report more than a third of their revenue to Singapore seeing similar swings as the S-REITs that report less than a third to none of their revenue to Singapore. As illustrated below, the two genres of S-REITs saw similar declines in the 2020 year through to 23 March, and similar partial recoveries from 23 March to 27 April.


      
    
    Reits Revenue


For a more detailed breakdown of the S-REIT Sector, investors can refer to the SREIT &amp; Property Trusts Chartbook - April 2020 here.  

Trio of REITs that have Lodged Gains in 2020 YTD

The 22 S-REITs that report more than a third of their revenue to Singapore included the three strongest S-REITs in the 2020 year through to 27 April that bucked the global trend of declines.

Keppel DC REIT generated a 22.2% total return in the 2020 year through to 27 April, with Mapletree Logistics Trust (“MLT”) gaining 4.2% and Parkway Life REIT (“PLIFE REIT”) gaining 0.9%. Both Keppel DC REIT and MLT were amongst the three S-REITs that saw the highest net institutional inflows over the 17 weeks.

Keppel T&amp;T Realising Profits in Keppel DC REIT

In its 1QFY20 Key Business and Operational Update (click here), Keppel DC REIT reported its 1QFY20 (ended 31 Mar)  gross revenue rose 25.5% from 1QFY19.

Prior to the 28 April session, Keppel Corporation announced that Keppel Telecommunications &amp; Transportation (“Keppel T&amp;T”), through its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, Keppel DC Investment Holdings had on 27 April 2020 entered into a sale and purchase agreement with Credit Suisse (Singapore) Limited as the placement agent for the sale of 38 million units in Keppel DC REIT.

These sales units represent approximately 2.33% of the total issued units in Keppel DC REIT, with a consideration of S$2.42 per sale unit. In line with the Group’s capital recycling strategy, the sale allows Keppel T&amp;T to realise profits that can be redeployed to capture new opportunities. As maintained in the announcement (click here) Keppel T&amp;T continues to be the single largest unitholder of Keppel DC REIT with a unitholding of 20.58%

Mapletree Logisitics Trust Performance Underpinned by Stable Operations &amp; Accretive Acquisition

On 23 April, MLT reported its FY19/20 (ended 31 Mar) DPU rose 2.5% from FY18/19 to 8.142 cents. The Managers of MLT maintained that currently most of its tenants across its eight markets are operational: In MLT’s top three core markets, for Hong Kong SAR ;and Japan, all tenants remain fully operational, while for Singapore about 5% of its tenant base is impacted.  The Managers added that there are strict government measures in certain markets, its tenants’ operations have remained largely intact:


Overall, tenants from the retail, hospitality and travel industries, which account for about 10% of MLT’s revenue, are the hardest hit by COVID-19; while
	Tenants who serve essential daily needs, such as food and beverage products, consumer staples and healthcare, continue to see healthy levels of activity, especially for the ecommerce operators. These sectors account for over 30% of MLT’s revenue.

PLife REIT Reported Stable Performance Amidst COVID-19 Outbreak in 1Q20 

On 22 April, PLife REIT reported its DPU in 1QFY20 (ended 31 Mar) grew by 1.4% to 3.32 Singapore cents, from 3.28 Singapore cents in 1QFY19. Gross revenue rose 5.2% year-on-year (“Y-O-Y”) to S$29.9 million in 1Q 2020. Growth was largely attributed to additional revenue contribution from the three Japan properties acquired in 4QFY19, upward revision of the minimum guaranteed rent for Singapore hospitals by 1.61% as well as the appreciation of Japanese Yen (“JPY”). The Group also noted it is setting aside S$1.7 million to provide targeted assistance and support measures for affected tenants as needed. As part of PLife REIT’s ongoing efforts to strengthen its balance sheet through proactive debt management, the Group successfully secured a six-year up to S$82.0 million committed loan facility during the quarter.
