Attached is the continuation of the Defensive Stocks, REITS and Trusts Series which I had previously covered. Today, we shall cover City Office Reit (NYSE: CIO)-- another defensive equities, reits or trust group of stocks that are expected to wither under the rising rates environment because rising interest rate yields will draw the blood out of these group of stocks. The OBV is glaring red flags for these groups of stocks worldwide. Together with the numerous examples I had covered, City Office Reit is just another classic example. As can be seen from the technicals OBV, the smart monies are never coming back now despite the rebound in Reits' prices. This kind of technicals can only be possible because fools' monies are in, while smart monies are out.
Keynote of DNA:
In rising interest rates environment, defensive stocks, reits and trusts lose their shine. Interest rates close up the gap between interest yields and dividend yields, and cause selling pressure on these kind of asset classes. Other asset classes offered by banks and insurance companies will offer much better shine for the high yields and lower risks in rising rates environment (hence, Banks and Insurance Companies to benefit greatly). Cyclical asset classes are favoured in rising rates environment.
