BUY

They own the best-quality malls. Shares rebounded in late 2021 to pre-Covid levels, but have struggled since. Their 6.8% dividend yield is less attractive amid high interest rates. But its just-released quarter revived shares. They delivered a big revenue beat of 7.2% YOY, funds from operation also beat, and had a super 92% occupancy rate. Minimum rents were 3% YOY. They raised their earnings forecast. Also, their Sparc operation will partner with fast fashion company, Shein, to expand their online marketplace to Forever 21 stores. Goldman Sachs expects malls and retail to expand next year as more people shore in stores.

BUY

A great CEO and it has paid $33 billion in dividends (at 6%)

HOLD

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research.

SPG is now trading at 17.5x times' Forward P/E.
The company’s revenue was hit quite hard during the pandemic and SPG’s revenue and EBIT in the trailing twelve-month did not recover to 2019’s levels.
The balance sheet is quite leveraged like other REITs, with net debt of $24.8B.
Total debt is around 6.5x times trailing twelve-month cash flow of $3.8B, and cash flow grew slightly around 3% compared to $3.6B last year.
Based on consensus estimates, sales are expected to grow by 2% - 3% on average going forward.The company has been resilient and managed to pay predictable dividends.
Although the dividend yield looks attractive and would likely be sustainable in the near term, the potential of consistently increasing dividends in a foreseeable future and long-term capital appreciation is not high.
The business’s growth outlook is not impressive, and SPG may face potential headwinds for growth due to the transition to e-commerce.

BUY

Reported after hours a mixed quarter, but positive guidance. They hold A-list malls. Occupancy is 93.9% vs. 91.8%--great. EPS beat, but revenues missed. They were on death's door two years ago but have come back impressively. The quarter was better than she expected.

BUY

AHY: Accidental high-yielding stocks that have fallen so far that their dividends now pay huge. The only AHY that he's still confident with. They reported a good quarter. However, he came into this too early and was overconfident about retail overall. SPG pays nearly a 6% dividend.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 13/20, Up 90%) Revenue is more protected long-term. Customers still want the bricks and mortar experience for high quality, high-end. Valuation now back to pre-pandemic levels. Most returns are behind it. Won't see doubling of money this year. Yield is 4%.

Allan Tong’s Discover Picks Meanwhile, Simon’s vacancy rate is holding on: 91.8% in Q2-2021, 94.4% in 2020, and 92.9% in 2019. Also remember that American unemployment remains low while savings levels are historically high. Americans are flush. Simon is a large and diversified REIT stock. Its 4.44% dividend is relatively safe and it trades at a 29.1x PE compared to the industry’s 114x. Margins and returns also handily beat its peers, such as its ROE of 57.2% vs. 13.7%. The only problem is that they good news is baked into SPG stock’s current share price of $141. Wall Street foresees only 4.6% upside based on seven buys and five holds for this REIT stock.
