IMO, I think its time to exit all growth stocks that have prices risen incredibly now to secure profits and enter into more defensive positions with high dividends to minimize probability of major capital loss when the market hit the peak and you need to exit fully thereafter

Any comments?

I find it very hard to find good company with high dividend now. At what yield, would you consider a high level. Personally, I am looking at around 10%.

You won't find any company trading at 10% yield unless the market feels its dividend policy might be unsustainable. Of course, the market can be wrong (it valued a lot of REITs at over 12% 2 years ago). The only company that crosses my mind is Golden Ocean.

Yes REITs are one type of trusts. There are other trusts like shipping trust, water trust etc. Nick has provided a good summary of Business trusts in the other thread. I find my investment profile not suitable for trusts as I see them as opportunistic and usually able to grow only via external funds (equity or debt).

Ahh I see, u mean fund raising by the trusts. Thanks for explaining Smile

And yeah, there were a number of equity placements executed by these trusts, and not at attractive price levels too. Best thing is to acquire shares of these trusts on the dip/low.
