Is CICT’s ION Orchard Purchase Overhyped? The Risks to Know #S-REITs

Hey, dividend investors! Welcome back to the channel. Today, I’m going to do something a bit different, something that might even risk me facing the wrath of the investing community. You see, every news article, blogger, and YouTuber out there seems to be raving about the proposed acquisition of ION Orchard by CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust or C.I.C.T.. And they’ve got good reasons too. But today, I’m going to flip the script and focus purely on the downsides and things to dislike about this deal.

Don’t get me wrong, I still like this acquisition, and I’ll likely be supporting it at the E.G.M. as an investor. But we all know there’s no such thing as a perfect deal. And as your friendly neighborhood Dividend Uncle, it’s my job to give you the full picture, warts and all, so you can make a well-informed decision.
